Let ${\mathcal H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on ${\mathcal H}$. For a positive integer $k$ less than the dimension of ${\mathcal H}$ and ${\mathbf A} =…

We study the connections between three seemingly different combinatorial structures - "uniform" brackets in statistics and probability theory, "containers" in online and distributed learning theory, and "combinatorial Macbeath regions", or…

In this paper we consider several problems of joint similarity to tuples of bounded linear operators in noncommutative polydomains and varieties associated with sets of noncommutative polynomials. We obtain analogues of classical results…

We establish universality of local eigenvalue correlations in unitary random matrix ensembles (1/Z_n) |\det M|^{2\alpha} e^{-n\tr V(M)} dM near the origin of the spectrum. If V is even, and if the recurrence coefficients of the orthogonal…

This paper investigates a path-following method inspired by the semismooth$^*$ approach for solving algebraic inclusions, with a primary emphasis on the role of uniform subregularity. Uniform subregularity is crucial for ensuring the…

We present a novel class of real symmetric matrices in arbitrary dimension $d$, linearly dependent on a parameter $x$. The matrix elements satisfy a set of nontrivial constraints that arise from asking for commutation of pairs of such…

$ \newcommand{\schs}{\scriptstyle{\mathsf{S}}_1} $For all $n \ge 1$, we give an explicit construction of $m \times m$ matrices $A_1,\ldots,A_n$ with $m = 2^{\lfloor n/2 \rfloor}$ such that for any $d$ and $d \times d$ matrices…

We extend to binary relational systems the notion of compact and normal structure, introduced by J.P.Penot for metric spaces, and we prove that for the involutive and reflexive ones, every commuting family of relational homomorphisms has a…

Let $A$ be a $m\times m$ complex matrix with zero trace and let $\e>0$. Then there are $m\times m$ matrices $B$ and $C$ such that $A=[B,C]$ and $\|B\|\|C\|\le K_\e m^\e\|A\|$ where $K_\e$ depends only on $\e$. Moreover, the matrix $B$ can…

This is the second of two papers but has been written so as to have minimal dependence on the first paper (which is also on this archive). Let G be a group and let M be a CAT(0) proper metric space (e.g. a simply connected complete…

A question going back to Halmos asks when two approximately commuting matrices of a certain kind are close to exactly commuting matrices of the same kind. It has long been known that there is a winding number obstruction for approximately…

In this paper, we prove some common coupled fixed point theorems for mappings satisfying different contractive conditions in the context of complete $C^*$-algebra-valued metric spaces. Moreover, the paper provides an application to prove…

We explore aspects of dilation theory in the finite dimensional case and show that for a commuting $n$-tuple of operators $T=(T_1,...,T_n) $ acting on some finite dimensional Hilbert space $H$ and a compact set $X\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ the…

It is known that the variety of pairs of n x n commuting upper triangular matrices isn't a complete intersection for infinitely many values of n; we show that there exists m such that this happens if and only if n > m. We also show that m <…

We introduce the concept of matching connectivity as a notion of connectivity in graph admitting perfect matchings which heavily relies on the structural properties of those matchings. We generalise a result of Robertson, Seymour and Thomas…

Let G be a group and let M be a CAT(0) proper metric space (e.g. a simply connected complete Riemannian manifold of non-positive sectional curvature or a locally finite tree). Isometric actions of G on M are (by definition) points in the…
