In this paper it is proved that, when $Q$ is a quiver that admits some closure, for any algebraically closed field $K$ and any finite dimensional $K$-linear representation $\mathcal{X}$ of $Q$, if ${\rm Ext}^1_{KQ}(\mathcal{X},KQ)=0$ then…

We solve two longstanding major problems in Free Probability. This is achieved by generalising the theory to one with values in arbitrary commutative algebras. We prove the existence of the multi-variable $S$-transform, and show that it is…

We give new positive and negative results (some conditional) on speeding up computational algebraic geometry over the reals: (1) A new and sharper upper bound on the number of connected components of a semialgebraic set. Our bound is novel…

We first prove that in a sigma-finite von Neumann factor M, a positive element $a$ with properly infinite range projection R_a is a linear combination of projections with positive coefficients if and only if the essential norm ||a||_e with…

This paper has been withdrawn by the author, since the main result, the existence and uniqueness theorem for host algebras, Theorem 3.4, is wrong for the following reasons. In Definition 3.1 we wanted to generalise the concept of an open…

We give a simple and self-contained proof of an extension of a projection theorem of Bourgain over the reals to division algebras over local fields of zero characteristic.

A projective geometry is an equivalence class of torsion free connections sharing the same unparametrised geodesics; this is a basic structure for understanding physical systems. Metric projective geometry is concerned with the interaction…

In our previous work, we have constructed explicit smooth real algebraic functions which may have both compact and non-compact preimages on smooth real algebraic manifolds. This paper presents its variant. Our result is new in obtaining…

As a typical dimensionality reduction technique, random projection can be simply implemented with linear projection, while maintaining the pairwise distances of high-dimensional data with high probability. Considering this technique is…

We investigate whether the group algebra of a finite group over a localisation of the integers is semiperfect. The main result is a necessary and sufficient arithmetic criterion in the ordinary case. In the modular case, we propose a…

We investigate a set of functional equations defining a projection in the noncommutative 2-torus algebra $A_{\theta}$. The exact solutions of these provide various generalisations of the Powers-Rieffel projection. By identifying the…

This paper is mainly devoted to the following question:\ Let $M,N$ be von~Neumann algebras with $M\subset N$, if there is a completely bounded projection $P\colon \ N\to M$, is there automatically a contractive projection $\widetilde…

In this paper, we study the counterpart of Grothendieck's projectivization construction in the context of derived algebraic geometry. Our main results are as follows: First, we define the derived projectivization of a connective complex,…

These lecture notes provide an informal introduction to the theory of nonnegative polynomials and sums of squares. We highlight the history and some recent developments, especially the new connections with classical (complex) algebraic…

In this paper, we extend the previous convergence results for the generalized alternating projection method applied to subspaces in [arXiv:1703.10547] to hold also for smooth manifolds. We show that the algorithm locally behaves similarly…

We study extensions and generalizations of the Schmidt Subspace Theorem in various settings. In particular, we prove results for algebraic points of bounded degree, giving a sharp version of Schmidt's theorem for quadratic points in the…

Let X be a smooth projective surface defined over an uncountable algebraically closed field k and let k(X) be its field of rational functions. Let s be an automorphism of X. This paper proves there is a non-negative integer n and elements a…

In the present note we focus on conic line arrangements in the plane with quasihomogeneous ordinary singularities from the perspective of weak Ziegler pairs. The foundations of this article come from an active area of research devoted to…

Variable projection solves structured optimization problems by completely minimizing over a subset of the variables while iterating over the remaining variables. Over the last 30 years, the technique has been widely used, with empirical and…

We expand our previously founded basic theory of equiresidual algebraic geometry over an arbitrary commutative field, to a well-behaved theory of (equiresidual) algebraic varieties over a commutative field, thanks to the generalisation of…
