A proof of non-existence of Lagrangian embeddings of the Klein bottle K in \CP^2 is given. We exploit the existence of a special embedding of K in a symplectic Lefschetz pencil on \CP^2 and study its monodromy. As the main technical tool,…
For each pair of complex symmetric matrices $(A,B)$ we provide a normal form with a minimal number of independent parameters, to which all pairs of complex symmetric matrices $(\widetilde{A},\widetilde{B})$, close to $(A,B)$ can be reduced…
The study of regular incidence structures such as projective planes and symmetric block designs is a well established topic in discrete mathematics. Work of Bruck, Ryser and Chowla in the mid-twentieth century applied the Hasse-Minkowski…
We analyze when an arbitrary matrix pencil is equivalent to a dissipative Hamiltonian pencil and show that this heavily restricts the spectral properties. In order to relax the spectral properties, we introduce matrix pencils with…
In this work, we consider symmetric positive definite pencils depending on two parameters. That is, we are concerned with the generalized eigenvalue problem $A(x)-\lambda B(x)$, where $A$ and $B$ are symmetric matrix valued functions in…
The generic change of the Weierstrass Canonical Form of regular complex structured matrix pencils under generic structure-preserving additive low-rank perturbations is studied. Several different symmetry structures are considered and it is…
Two types of Poisson pencils connected to classical R-matrices and their quantum counterparts are considered. A representation theory of the quantum algebras related to some symmetric orbits in $sl(n)^*$ is constructed. A twisted version of…
The main purpose of this article is to show that the numerical range of a linear pencil $\lambda A + B$ is equal to $\mathbb{C}$ if and only if $0$ belongs to the convex hull of the joint numerical range of $A$ and $B$. We also prove that…
The inverse spectral problem for the second-order differential pencil with quadratic dependence on the spectral parameter is studied. We obtain sufficient conditions for the global solvability of the inverse problem, prove its local…

Semidefinite programming optimises a linear objective function over a spectrahedron, and is one of the major advances of mathematical optimisation. Spectrahedra are described by linear pencils, which are linear matrix polynomials with…
We study a finite-dimensional algebra $\Lambda$ constructed from a Postnikov diagram $D$ in a disk, obtained from the dimer algebra of Baur-King-Marsh by factoring out the ideal generated by the boundary idempotent. Thus $\Lambda$ is…
The explicit constructions of minimal isometric, and minimal unitary dilations of an arbitrary linear pencil of operators $T(\lambda)=T_0+\lambda T_1$ consisting of contractions on a separable Hilbert space for $|\lambda |=1$, which…
We prove that, given two matrix pencils $L$ and $M$, if $M$ belongs to the closure of the orbit of $L$ under strict equivalence, then the dimension of the orbit of $M$ is smaller than or equal to the dimension of the orbit of $L$, and the…
The work is devoted to investigation of the canonical structure of regular, in domain of definition ${\cal U}\subseteq {\mathbb R}^{m}$, the pencil of matrix-functions $A(x)+\lambda B(x)$. It is supposed that $\det A(x)\equiv 0$ and $\det…
It is known that symmetric orbits in ${\bf g}^*$ for any simple Lie algebra ${\bf g}$ are equiped with a Poisson pencil generated by the Kirillov-Kostant-Souriau bracket and the reduced Sklyanin bracket associated to the "canonical"…
This paper introduces and investigates a class of noncommutative spacetimes that I will call ``T-Minkowski,'' whose quantum Poincar\'e group of isometries exhibits unique and physically motivated characteristics. Notably, the coordinates on…
