For any open, connected and bounded set $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb C^m$, let $\mathcal A$ be a natural function algebra consisting of functions holomorphic on $\Omega$. Let $\mathcal M$ be a Hilbert module over the algebra $\mathcal A$ and…

Given two finite posets P and Q, P is a chain minor of Q if there exists a partial function f from the elements of Q to the elements of P such that for every chain in P there is a chain C_Q in Q with the property that f restricted to C_Q is…

Let $G$ be a group of order $n$ and $H$ be a subgroup of order $m$ of $G$. Denote by $\psi_H(G)$ the sum of element orders relative to $H$ of $G$. It is known that if $G$ is nilpotent, then $\psi_H(G)\leq\psi_{H_m}(G)$, where $H_m$ is the…

Let $\preceq$ be a preorder on a monoid $H$ and $s$ be an integer $\ge 2$. The $\preceq$-height of an $x \in H$ is the sup of the integers $k \ge 1$ for which there is a (strictly) $\preceq$-decreasing sequence $x_1,\ldots,x_k$ of…

Weak unipotence of primitive ideals is a crucial property in the study of unitary representations of reductive groups. We establish a sufficient condition, referred to as mild unipotence, which guarantees weak unipotence and is more…

Suppose that $A,B$ are two non-empty subsets of the finite nilpotent group $G$. If $A\not=B$, then the cardinality of the restricted sumset $$A\dotplus B={a+b: a\in A, b\in B, a\neq b} $$ is at least $$\min{p(G),|A|+|B|-2},$$ where $p(G)$…

This paper, we consider some properties of rings via q-potent and periodic elements. In this paper we give some results of rings in which every element is a sum of an idempotent and a q-potent that commute; periodic rings and k-potent…

Let $\mathbb{P}_n$ be the set of all matrices which have the same zero patterns with some permutation matrix of order $n$. In this paper, we prove the following result: Let $\mathbb{I}$ be the unit tensor of order $m\ge3$ and dimension…

Given a nilpotent orbit O of a real, reductive algebraic group, a necessary condition is given for the existence of a tempered representation pi such that O occurs in the wave front cycle of pi. The coefficients of the wave front cycle of a…

In this article we introduce a definition of topological minimal sets, which is a generalization of that of Mumford-Shah-minimal sets. We prove some general properties as well as two existence theorems for topological minimal sets. As an…

Let $\mathcal F=(F, +. \cdot, <, 0, 1, \dots)$ be a definably complete locally o-minimal expansion of an ordered field. We demonstrate the existence of definable quotients of definable sets by definable equivalence relations when several…

Given a *-homomorphism $\sigma: C(M)\to \mathscr{L}(\mathcal{H})$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ for a compact metric space $M$, a projection $P$ onto a subspace $\mathcal{P}$ in $\mathcal{H}$ is said to be essentially normal relative to…

A lower bound on the amount of noise that must be added to a GHZ-like entangled state to make it separable (also called the random robustness) is found using the transposition condition. The bound is applicable to arbitrary numbers of…

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate some natural problems regarding the order structure of representable functionals on $^*$-algebras. We describe the extreme points of order intervals, and give a nontrivial sufficient…

In this note we answer the question raised by Han et al. in J. Korean Math. Soc (2014) whether an idempotent isomorphic to a semicentral idempotent is itself semicentral. We show that rings with this property are precisely the…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a Hilbert space, and let $K(\mathcal{H})$ be the $C^*$-algebra of compact operators on $\mathcal{H}$. In this paper, we present some characterizations of the norm-parallelism for elements of a Hilbert…

We investigate approach spaces generated by probabilistic metric spaces with respect to a continuous t-norm $*$ on the unit interval $[0,1]$. Let $k^*$ be the supremum of the idempotent elements of $*$ in $[0,1)$. It is shown that if…

An extended formulation of a polytope P is a polytope Q which can be projected onto P. Extended formulations of small size (i.e., number of facets) are of interest, as they allow to model corresponding optimization problems as linear…

As a means to solve optimization problems using quantum computers, the problem is typically recast into a Ising spin model whose ground-state is the solution of the optimization problem. An alternative to the Ising formulation is the…

We investigate certain geometric properties of the spaces of idempotent measures. In particular, we prove that the space of idempotent measures on an infinite compact metric space is homeomorphic to the Hilbert cube.
