We develop and study a generalization of commutative rings called bands, along with the corresponding geometric theory of band schemes. Bands generalize both hyperrings, in the sense of Krasner, and partial fields in the sense of Semple and…

A Laurent polynomial ring $A[t,1/t]$ with coefficients in a unital ring $A$ determines a category of quasi-coherent sheaves on the projective line over $A$; its $K$-theory is known to split into a direct sum of two copies of the $K$-theory…

Any set of $\sigma$-Hermitian matrices of size $n \times n$ over a field with involution $\sigma$ gives rise to a projective line in the sense of ring geometry and a projective space in the sense of matrix geometry. It is shown that the two…

For a tuple $A=(A_0, A_1, ..., A_n)$ of elements in a unital Banach algebra ${\mathcal B}$, its {\em projective spectrum} $p(A)$ is defined to be the collection of $z=[z_0, z_1, ..., z_n]\in \pn$ such that $A(z)=z_0A_0+z_1A_1+... +z_nA_n$…

In the first part of this article, we study linear cones over totally ordered fields. We show that for each such cone there uniquely exists a universal vector space (called its spanned vector space) into which it embeds as a generating…

Let $V$ be a left vector space over a division ring and let ${\mathcal P}(V)$ be the associated projective space. We describe all finite subsets $X\subset V$ such that every permutation on $X$ can be extended to a linear automorphism of $V$…

A projective rectangle is like a projective plane that may have different lengths in two directions. We develop properties of the graph of lines, in which adjacency means having a common point, especially its strong regularity and clique…

A planar order is a special linear extension of the edge poset (partially ordered set) of a processive plane graph. The definition of a planar order makes sense for any finite poset and is equivalent to the one of a conjugate order. Here it…

We discuss the application of random projections to conic programming: notably linear, second-order and semidefinite programs. We prove general approximation results on feasibility and optimality using the framework of formally real Jordan…

In a Dedekind complete Riesz space, $E$, we show that if $(P_n)$ is a sequence of band projections in $E$ then $$\limsup\limits_{n\to \infty} P_n - \liminf\limits_{n\to \infty} P_n = \limsup\limits_{n\to \infty} P_n(I-P_{n+1}).$$ This…

We provide a complete description of the tangent space of the cone of monotone plans in $\R\times \R$ with prescribed first projection. We show that elements of this tangent space are essentially made of two simple building-block types of…

Given a nonempty set $\mathcal{L}$ of linear orders, we say that the linear order $L$ is $\mathcal{L}$-convex embeddable into the linear order $L'$ if it is possible to partition $L$ into convex sets indexed by some element of $\mathcal{L}$…

We endow the set of complements of a fixed subspace of a projective space with the structure of an affine space, and show that certain lines of such an affine space are affine reguli or cones over affine reguli. Moreover, we apply our…

Matrix polynomials given in an orthogonal basis are considered. Following the ideas of Mackey et al. "Vector spaces of Linearizations for Matrix Polynomials" (2006), the vec- tor spaces, called M1(P), M2(P) and DM(P), of potential…

The main aim of the present note is to consider bounded orthomorphisms between locally solid vector lattices. We establish a version of the remarkable Zannen theorem regarding equivalence between orthomomorphisms and the underlying vector…

This is a little investigation into the classification of complexes of direct sums of line bundles on projective spaces. We consider complexes on projective k-space Pk : O_Pk(-1)^a --> O_Pk^b --> O_Pk(1)^c, with the first map injective and…

Let $X$ be a projective manifold of dimension $n$. Suppose that $T_X$ contains an ample subsheaf. We show that $X$ is isomorphic to $\mathbb{P}^n$. As an application, we derive the classification of projective manifolds containing a…

Let $X$ be a projective toric variety of dimension $n$ and let $L$ be a ample line bundle on $X$. For $k \geq 0$, it is in general difficult to determine whether $L^{\otimes k}$ is very ample and whether it additionally gives a projectively…

A projective structure on a compact Riemann surface X of genus g is given by an atlas with transition functions in PGL(2,C). Equivalently, a projective structure is given by a projective sl(2,C)-bundle over X equipped with a section s and a…

First-order jet bundles can be put at the foundations of the modern geometric approach to nonlinear PDEs, since higher-order jet bundles can be seen as constrained iterated jet bundles. The definition of first-order jet bundles can be given…
