We define an extension of operator-valued positive definite functions from the real or complex setting to topological algebras, and describe their associated reproducing kernel spaces. The case of entire functions is of special interest,…

Graded rings provide a natural algebraic framework for encoding symmetry via decompositions into homogeneous components indexed by a group, together with multiplication rules reflecting the group operation. Among graded rings, strongly…

We study a category of probability spaces and measure-preserving Markov kernels up to almost sure equality. This category contains, among its isomorphisms, mod-zero isomorphisms of probability spaces. It also gives an isomorphism between…

Motivated by questions in quantum theory, we study Hilbert space valued Gaussian processes, and operator-valued kernels, i.e., kernels taking values in B(H) (= all bounded linear operators in a fixed Hilbert space H). We begin with a…

We present the class of Hida-Mat\'ern kernels, which is the canonical family of covariance functions over the entire space of stationary Gauss-Markov Processes. It extends upon Mat\'ern kernels, by allowing for flexible construction of…

Inclusive deep inelastic scattering factorization combines two features that are often treated separately: an asymptotic reconstruction of the current-current matrix element from hard and long-distance data, and an invariance under finite…

We study a family of Fredholm determinants associated to deformations of the sine kernel, parametrized by a weight function w. For a specific choice of w, this kernel describes bulk statistics of finite temperature free fermions. We…

We study two extension problems, and their interconnections: (i) extension of positive definite (p.d.) continuous functions defined on subsets in locally compact groups $G$; and (ii) (in case of Lie groups $G$) representations of the…

We propose a kernel-based partial permutation test for checking the equality of functional relationship between response and covariates among different groups. The main idea, which is intuitive and easy to implement, is to keep the…

In this paper, we explore various ways in which a factor $\sigma$-algebra $\mathscr{B}$ can sit in a dynamical system $\mathbf{X} :=(X, \mathscr{A}, \mu, T)$, i.e. we study some possible structures of the extension $\mathscr{A} \rightarrow…

The Riemannian metric on the manifold of positive definite matrices is defined by a kernel function $\phi$ in the form $K_D^\phi(H,K)=\sum_{i,j}\phi(\lambda_i,\lambda_j)^{-1} Tr P_iHP_jK$ when $\sum_i\lambda_iP_i$ is the spectral…
