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…

We present relations between Hirota-type bilinear operators, scalar products on spaces of symmetric functions and integrals defining matrix model partition functions. Using the fermionic Fock space representation, a proof of the expansion…

We introduce a new combinatorial object, semistandard increasing decomposition tableau and study its relation to a semistandard decomposition tableau introduced by Kra\'skiewicz and developed by Lam and Serrano. We also introduce…

Stimulated by the category theorems of Eisner and Ser\'eny in the setting of unitary and isometric $C_0$-semigroups on separable Hilbert spaces, we prove category theorems for Schr\"odinger semigroups. Specifically, we show that, to a given…

A well-known fact in linear algebra is that $A^T A$ is always positive semi-definite for any real matrix $A$. We consider a generalization of this fact via the following decision problem. Given a symbolic product of length $k$, consisting…

To any Schur polynomial $s_{\lambda}$ one can associated its derived polynomials $s_{\lambda}{(i)}$ $i=0,\ldots,|\lambda|$ by the rule $$s_{\lambda}(x_1+t,\ldots,x_n+t) = \sum_i s_{\lambda}^{(i)}(x_1,\ldots,x_n) t^i.$$ We conjecture that…

A version of Gromov's cup product lemma in which one factor is the (1,0)-part of the differential of a continuous plurisubharmonic function is obtained. As an application, it is shown that a connected noncompact complete Kaehler manifold…

This paper presents a reformulation of the Leibniz product rule as a finite sum that expresses the fractional derivative of the product of two differentiable functions. This paper then proves the cases for when the product consists of an…

An identity is derived expressing Schur functions as sums over products of pairs of Schur $Q$-functions, generalizing previously known special cases. This is shown to follow from their representations as vacuum expectation values (VEV's) of…

In this note we define a $C^1$ function $F:[0,M]^2\to [0,2]$ that satisfies that its set of critical values has positive measure. This function provides an example, easier than those that usually appear in the literature, of how the order…

In this note we give defining relations of an $\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}[t]$-module defined by the fusion product of simple $\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}$-modules whose highest weights are multiples of a given fundamental weight. From this result we…

We show that the Schur multiplier of a Noetherian group need not be finitely generated. We prove that the non-abelian tensor product of a polycyclic (resp. polycyclic-by-finite) group and a Noetherian group, is a polycyclic (resp.…

We continue the study of real polynomials acting entrywise on matrices of fixed dimension to preserve positive semidefiniteness, together with the related analysis of order properties of Schur polynomials. Previous work has shown that,…

All the $F:$N$\rightarrow $C having Ramanujan expansion $F(a)=\sum_{q=1}^{\infty}G(q)c_q(a)$ (here $c_q(a)$ is the Ramanujan sum) pointwise converging in $a\in $N, with $G:$N$\rightarrow $C a multiplicative function, may be factored into…

Let $1\leq k \leq n$ and let $X_n = (x_1, \dots, x_n)$ be a list of $n$ variables. The {\em Boolean product polynomial} $B_{n,k}(X_n)$ is the product of the linear forms $\sum_{i \in S} x_i$ where $S$ ranges over all $k$-element subsets of…

Symmetric function theory is a key ingredient in the Schubert calculus of Grassmannians. Quasisymmetric functions are analogues that are similarly central to algebraic combinatorics, but for which the associated geometry is poorly…

Let R\_{0,n} be the Clifford algebra of the antieuclidean vector space of dimension n. The aim is to built a function theory analogous to the one in the C case. In the latter case, the product of two holomorphic functions is holomorphic,…

Schur's Theorem and its generalisation, Baer's Theorem, are distinguished results in group theory, connecting the upper central quotients with the lower central series. The aim of this paper is to generalise these results in two different…

For polynomial representations of $GL_n$ of a fixed degree, H. Krause defined a new internal tensor product using the language of strict polynomial functors. We show that over an arbitrary commutative base ring $k$, the Schur functor…

Given a function $f$ on the positive half-line $\R_+$ and a sequence (finite or infinite) of points $X=\{x_k\}_{k=1}^\omega$ in $\R^n$, we define and study matrices $\kS_X(f)=\|f(|x_i-x_j|)\|_{i,j=1}^\omega$ called Schoenberg's matrices. We…
