Hyper-Positive Real, matrix-valued, rational functions are associated with absolute stability (the Lurie problem). Here, quantitative subsets of Hyper-positive functions, related through nested inclusions, are introduced. Structurally, this…
The classic Riesz representation theorem characterizes all linear and increasing functionals on the space $C_{c}(X)$ of continuous compactly supported functions. A geometric version of this result, which characterizes all linear increasing…
We prove a general representation stability result for polynomial coefficient systems which lets us prove representation stability and secondary homological stability for many families of groups with polynomial coefficients. This gives two…
It is shown that a graph parameter can be realized as the number of homomorphisms into a fixed (weighted) graph if and only if it satisfies two linear algebraic conditions: reflection positivity and exponential rank-connectivity. In terms…
We define a power series associated with a homogeneous ideal in a polynomial ring, encoding information on the Segre classes defined by extensions of the ideal in projective spaces of arbitrarily high dimension. We prove that this power…
Birkhoff's representation theorem (Birkhoff, 1937) defines a bijection between elements of a distributive lattice and the family of upper sets of an associated poset. Although not used explicitly, this result is at the backbone of the…
We propose a definition of branching-type stationary stochastic processes on rooted trees and related definitions of hyper-positivity for functions on the unit circle and functions on the set of non-negative integers. We then obtain (1) a…
We study relations between the eigenvectors of rational matrix functions on the Riemann sphere. Our main result is that for a subclass of functions that are products of two elementary blocks it is possible to represent these relations in a…
We consider an homogeneous action of a finite group on a free linear category over a field in order to prove that the subcategory of invariants is still free. Moreover we show that the representation type is preserved when considering…
Entrywise functions preserving Loewner positivity have been studied by many authors, most notably Schoenberg and Rudin. Following their work, it is known that functions preserving positivity when applied entrywise to positive semidefinite…
We are interested in representations and characterizations of lattice polynomial functions f:L^n -> L, where L is a given bounded distributive lattice. In companion papers [arXiv 0901.4888, arXiv 0808.2619], we investigated certain…
Let $G$ be a discrete group and let $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal B$ be two subgroups of $G$-valued continuous functions defined on two $0$-dimensional compact spaces $X$ and $Y$. A group isomorphism $H$ defined between $\mathcal A$ and…

We provide a representation of the homomorphisms $U\longrightarrow \mathbb R$, where $U$ is the lattice of all uniformly continuous on the line. The resulting picture is sharp enough to describe the fine topological structure of the space…
Spectral analysis of a certain doubly infinite Jacobi operator leads to orthogonality relations for confluent hypergeometric functions, which are called Laguerre functions. This doubly infinite Jacobi operator corresponds to the action of a…
The Lebesgue property (order-continuity) of a monotone convex function on a solid vector space of measurable functions is characterized in terms of (1) the weak inf-compactness of the conjugate function on the order-continuous dual space,…
In the article the necessary and sufficient conditions for a representation of Lipschitz function of more than two variables as a difference of two convex functions are formulated. An algorithm of this representation is given. The outcome…
Harmonic functions are natural generalizations of conformal mappings. In recent years, a lot of work have been done by some researchers who focus on harmonic starlike functions. In this paper, we aim to introduce two classes of harmonic…
The present paper links the representation theory of Lie groupoids and infinite-dimensional Lie groups. We show that smooth representations of Lie groupoids give rise to smooth representations of associated Lie groups. The groups envisaged…
In this paper, we prove the following. First, every square matrix whose entries are multivariable rational functions over a field $\mathbb{F}$ has a Bessmertny\u{i} realization, i.e., is the Schur complement of an affine linear square…
