This paper defines a linear representation for nonlinear maps $F:\mathbb{F}^n\rightarrow\mathbb{F}^n$ where $\mathbb{F}$ is a finite field, in terms of matrices over $\mathbb{F}$. This linear representation of the map $F$ associates a…

Semilinear maps are a generalization of linear maps between vector spaces where we allow the scalar action to be twisted by a ring homomorphism such as complex conjugation. In particular, this generalization unifies the concepts of linear…

We introduce a functor of functionals which preserve maximum of comonotone functions and addition of constants. This functor is a subfunctor of the functor of order-preserving functionals and contains the idempotent measure functor as…

Let $D_j\subset\mathbb C^{n_j}$ be a pseudoconvex domain and let $A_j\subset D_j$ be a locally pluriregular set, $j=1,...,N$. Put $$ X:=\bigcup_{j=1}^N A_1\times...\times A_{j-1}\times D_j\times A_{j+1}\times...\times A_N. $$ Let $M\subset…

Let F be a global field and A its ring of adeles. Let G:=SL(2). We study the bilinear form B on the space of K-finite smooth compactly supported functions on G(A )/G(F) defined by the formula B (f,g):=B'(f,g)-(M^{-1}CT (f),CT (g)), where B'…

First, we reconsider the magnetic pseudodifferential calculus and show that for a large class of non-decaying symbols, their corresponding magnetic pseudodifferential operators can be represented, up to a global gauge transform, as…

The center $Z(\mathcal{A})$ of an abelian category $\mathcal{A}$ is the endomorphism ring of the identity functor on that category. A localizing subcategory of a Grothendieck category $\mathcal{C}$ is said to be stable if it is stable under…

A special case of a fundamental result of Loewner and Horn [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 1969] says that given an integer $n \geq 1$, if the entrywise application of a smooth function $f : (0,\infty) \to \mathbb{R}$ preserves the set of $n…

Let $\mathbb{R}^{+}=[0, \infty)$ and let $\mathbf{End}_{\mathbb{R}^+}$ be the set of all endomorphisms of the monoid $(\mathbb{R}^+, \vee)$. The set $\mathbf{End}_{\mathbb{R}^+}$ is a monoid with respect to the operation of the function…

Let (M,J) be an almost complex manifold. We show that the infinite-dimensional space Tau of totally real submanifolds in M carries a natural connection. This induces a canonical notion of geodesics in Tau and a corresponding definition of…

Let $\varphi_0$ be a smooth conservative diffeomorphism of a compact surface $S$ and let $\Lambda_0$ be a transitive horseshoe of $\varphi_0$. Given a smooth real function $f$ defined in $S$ and a small smooth conservative perturbation…

The main result of this paper is a proof of the continuity of a family of integral functionals defined on the space of functions of bounded variation with respect to a topology under which smooth functions are dense. These functionals occur…

We consider the factorization problem of matrix symbols relative to a closed contour, i.e., a Riemann-Hilbert problem, where the symbol depends analytically on parameters. We show how to define a function $\tau$ which is locally analytic on…

Let $\{S_i\}_{i\in \Lambda}$ be a finite contracting affine iterated function system (IFS) on ${\Bbb R}^d$. Let $(\Sigma,\sigma)$ denote the two-sided full shift over the alphabet $\Lambda$, and $\pi:\Sigma\to {\Bbb R}^d$ be the coding map…

Let $G$ be the $ax+b$ group. There are essentially two irreducible infinite dimensional unitary representations of $G$, $(\mu, L^2(\mathbb R^+))$ and $(\mu^*, L^2(\mathbb R^+))$. In this paper, we give various characterizations about smooth…

In contrast to the determinant, no algorithm is known for the exact determination of the permanent of a square matrix that runs in time polynomial in its dimension. Consequently, non interacting fermions are classically efficiently…

It is shown that a real-valued formal meromorphic function on a formal generic submanifold of finite Kohn-Bloom-Graham type is necessarily constant.

For a class of linear maps on a von Neumann factor, we associate two objects, bounded operators and trace class operators, both of which play the roles of Choi matrices. Each of them is positive if and only if the original map on the factor…

We study a new bi-Lipschitz invariant \lambda(M) of a metric space M; its finiteness means that Lipschitz functions on an arbitrary subset of M can be linearly extended to functions on M whose Lipschitz constants are enlarged by a factor…

The linear continuity of a function defined on a vector space means that its restriction on every affine line is continuous. For functions defined on $\mathbb R^m$ this notion is near to the separate continuity for which it is required only…
