We consider the set of all matrices of the form $p_{ij}=tr[W(E_{i}\otimes F_{j})]$ where $E_{i}$, $F_{j}$ are projections on a Hilbert space $H$, and $W$ is some state on $H\otimes H$. We derive the basic properties of this set, compare it…

A standard bicovariant differential calculus on a quantum matrix space ${\tt Mat}(m,n)_q$ is considered. The principal result of this work is in observing that the $U_q\frak{s}(\frak{gl}_m\times \frak{gl}_n))_q$ is in fact a…

A linear differential operator $T=Q(z)\frac{d}{dz}+P(z)$ with polynomial coefficients defines a continuous family of Hutchinson operators when acting on the space of positive powers of linear forms. In this context, $T$ has a unique minimal…
