We consider a primitive distance-regular graph $\Gamma$ with diameter at least $3$. We use the intersection numbers of $\Gamma$ to find a positive semidefinite matrix $G$ with integer entries. We show that $G$ has determinant zero if and…
The set of associative and commutative hypercomplex numbers, called the perfect hypercomplex algebra (PHA) is investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for an algebra to be a PHA via semi-tensor product(STP) of matrices are…
An independent set in a graph is a set of pairwise non-adjacent vertices, and alpha(G) is the size of a maximum independent set in the graph G. A matching is a set of non-incident edges, while mu(G) is the cardinality of a maximum matching.…
A very first step to develop non-commutative algebraic geometry is the arithmetic of polynomials in non-commuting variables over a commutative field, that is, the study of elements in free associative algebras. This investigation is…
Let $\gamma$ be a smooth, non-closed, simple curve whose image is symmetric with respect to the $y$-axis, and let $D$ be a planar domain consisting of the points on one side of $\gamma$, within a suitable distance $\delta$ of $\gamma$.…
We study the ring of all functions from the positive integers to some field. This ring, which we call \emph{the ring of number-theoretic functions}, is an inverse limit of the ``truncations'' \Gamma_n consisting of all functions f for which…
Given a finite simplicial graph $\Gamma=(V,E)$ with a vertex-labelling $\varphi:V\rightarrow\left\{\text{non-trivial finitely generated groups}\right\}$, the graph product $G_\Gamma$ is the free product of the vertex groups $\varphi(v)$…
One of the main applications of semidefinite programming lies in linear systems and control theory. Many problems in this subject, certainly the textbook classics, have matrices as variables, and the formulas naturally contain…
We provide sufficient conditions for two subgroups of a hierarchically hyperbolic group to generate an amalgamated free product over their intersection. The result applies in particular to certain geometric subgroups of mapping class groups…
A graph $\Gamma$ is $G$-symmetric if it admits $G$ as a group of automorphisms acting transitively on the set of arcs of $\Gamma$, where an arc is an ordered pair of adjacent vertices. Let $\Gamma$ be a $G$-symmetric graph such that its…
For an abelian group $\Gamma$, a $\Gamma$-labelled graph is a graph whose vertices are labelled by elements of $\Gamma$. We prove that a certain collection of edge sets of a $\Gamma$-labelled graph forms a delta-matroid, which we call a…
We prove that every finitely generated group $G$ discriminated by a locally quasi-convex torsion-free hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ is effectively coherent: that is, presentations for finitely generated subgroups can be computed from the…
For a congruence subgroup $\Gamma$, we define the notion of $\Gamma$-equivalence on binary quadratic forms which is the same as proper equivalence if $\Gamma = \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$. We develop a theory on $\Gamma$-equivalence such as…
In this paper we provide a classification theorem for 1-dimensional boundaries of groups with isolated flats. Given a group $\Gamma$ acting geometrically on a $CAT(0)$ space $X$ with isolated flats and 1-dimensional boundary, we show that…
This paper concerns free analytic maps on noncommutative domains. These maps are free analogs of classical holomorphic functions in several complex variables, and are defined in terms of noncommuting variables amongst which there are no…
We show that for acylindrically hyperbolic groups $\Gamma$ (with no nontrivial finite normal subgroups) and arbitrary unitary representation $\rho$ of $\Gamma$ in a (nonzero) uniformly convex Banach space the vector space…
Given a monic linear pencil L in g variables let D_L be its positivity domain, i.e., the set of all g-tuples X of symmetric matrices of all sizes making L(X) positive semidefinite. Because L is a monic linear pencil, D_L is convex with…
We extend the duality principle for the $\Gamma$-convergence of convex lower semicontinuous functions, which was previously established only in separable reflexive Banach spaces, to the broader class of weakly compactly generated (WCG)…
The Fibonacci cube $\Gamma_n$ is is the graph whose vertices are independent subsets of the path graph of length $n$, where two such vertices are considered adjacent if they differ by the addition or removal of a single element. Klav\v{z}ar…
The order polytope $\mathcal{O}(P)$ and the chain polytope $\mathcal{C}(P)$ associated to a partially ordered set $P$ are studied. In this paper, we introduce the convex polytope $\Gamma(\mathcal{O}(P), -\mathcal{C}(Q))$ which is the convex…
