Many questions in number theory concern the nonvanishing of determinants of square matrices of logarithms (complex or p-adic) of algebraic numbers. We present a new conjecture that states that if such a matrix has vanishing determinant,…

We study the notion of weak amalgamation in the context of diagonal conjugacy classes. Generalizing results of Kechris and Rosendal, we prove that for every countable structure $M$, Polish group $G$ of permutations of $M$, and $n \geq 1$,…

We derive a lower bound on the smallest singular value of a random $d$-regular matrix, that is, the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular directed graph. More precisely, let $C_1<d< c_1 n/\log^2 n$ and let $\mathcal{M}_{n,d}$ be the set…

We establish the $\#P$-hardness of computing a broad class of immanants, even when restricted to specific categories of matrices. Concretely, we prove that computing $\lambda$-immanants of $0$-$1$ matrices is $\#P$-hard whenever the…

In this study, we study weak values from a quantum-logical viewpoint. In addition, we examine the validity of the counterfactual statements of Hardy's paradox, which are based on weak values, and we show that these statements have not been…

We consider local weak solutions to PDEs of the type \[ -\,\mathrm{div}\left((\vert Du\vert-\lambda)_{+}^{p-1}\frac{Du}{\vert Du\vert}\right)=f\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\text{in}\,\,\Omega, \] where $1<p<\infty$, $\Omega$ is an open subset of…

In this paper we discuss the notion of reducibility for matrix weights and introduce a real vector space $\mathcal C_\mathbb{R}$ which encodes all information about the reducibility of $W$. In particular a weight $W$ reduces if and only if…

We extend Ando-Hiai's log-majorization for the weighted geometric mean of positive definite matrices into that for the Cartan barycenter in the general setting of probability measures on the Riemannian manifold of positive definite matrices…

We study the behaviour of the smallest possible constants $d_n$ and $c_n$ in Hardy's inequalities $$ \sum_{k=1}^{n}\Big(\frac{1}{k}\sum_{j=1}^{k}a_j\Big)^2\leq d_n\,\sum_{k=1}^{n}a_k^2, \qquad (a_1,\ldots,a_n) \in \mathbb{R}^n $$ and $$…

Let $Q_n$ be a random $n\times n$ matrix with entries in $\{0,1\}$ whose rows are independent vectors of exactly $n/2$ zero components. We show that the smallest singular value $s_n(Q_n)$ of $Q_n$ satisfies \[ \mathbb{P}\Big\{s_n(Q_n)\le…

We give a conjectured evaluation of the determinant of a certain matrix $\tilde{D}(n,k)$. The entries of $\tilde{D}(n,k)$ are either 0 or specializations $\mathfrak{S}_w(1,\dots,1)$ of Schubert polynomials. The conjecture implies that the…

Calculating or accurately estimating log-determinants of large positive definite matrices is of fundamental importance in many machine learning tasks. While its cubic computational complexity can already be prohibitive, in modern…

We study modular Galois representations mod $p^m$. We show that there are three progressively weaker notions of modularity for a Galois representation mod $p^m$: we have named these `strongly', `weakly', and `dc-weakly' modular. Here, `dc'…

We study factorization and dilation properties of Markov maps between von Neumann algebras equipped with normal faithful states, i.e., completely positive unital maps which preserve the given states and also intertwine their automorphism…

We prove that for any $C^1$-stably weakly shadowing transitive set $\Lambda$, either $\Lambda$ is a sink or a source, or $\Lambda$ admits a dominated splitting.

We consider a special class of weak dependent random variables with control on covariances of Lipschitz transformations. This class includes, but is not limited to, positively, negatively associated variables and a few other classes of…

In this article, we define and study a geometry and an order on the set of partitions of an even number of objects. One of the definitions involves the partition algebra, a structure of algebra on the set of such partitions depending on an…

Given a weakly decreasing positive integer sequence $\lambda = (\lambda_1,\dotsc,\lambda_\ell)$ summing to $n$, let $\chi^\lambda$ denote the irreducible character of the symmetric group $S_n$ indexed by $\lambda$. This representation has…

In this paper, we review and extend a family of log-det divergences for symmetric positive definite (SPD) matrices and discuss their fundamental properties. We show how to generate from parameterized Alpha-Beta (AB) and Gamma Log-det…

We first introduce a weak type of Zariski decomposition in higher dimensions: an $\R$-Cartier divisor has a weak Zariski decomposition if birationally and in a numerical sense it can be written as the sum of a nef and an effective…
