A linear operator on a finite dimensional nonzero real vector space may not have an eigenvalue. We define a related notion of a true-pair of a linear operator, and then show that each linear operator on a finite dimensional nonzero real…

The paper studies nilpotent $n$-Lie superalgebras. More specifically speaking, we first prove Engel's theorem for $n$-Lie superalgebras. Second, we research some properties of nilpotent $n$-Lie superalgebras, Finally, we give several…

Working over an infinite field of positive characteristic, an upper bound is given for the nilpotency index of a finitely generated nil algebra of bounded nil index $n$ in terms of the maximal degree in a minimal homogenous generating…

A linear different operator L is called weakly hypoelliptic if any local solution u of Lu=0 is smooth. We allow for systems, that is, the coefficients may be matrices, not necessarily of square size. This is a huge class of important…

By using classical invariant theory approach a formulas for computation of the Poincare series of the kernel of linear locally nilpotent derivations is found.

Probabilistic conditioning is concerned with the identification of a distribution of a random variable $X$ given a random variable $Y$. It is a cornerstone of scientific and engineering applications where modeling uncertainty is key. This…

We apply to operator algebra theory a monotone selection principle which apparently escaped attention (of operator algebra theorists) so far. This principle relates to the basic order theoretic characterisation of von Neumann algebras given…

In this paper, we study simplicial commutative algebras with finite Andr\'e-Quillen homology. Here we restrict our focus to simplicial algebras having characteristic 2. Our aim is to find a generalization of results established by the…

Let $A=A^*$ be a linear operator in a Hilbert space $H$. Assume that equation $Au=f \quad (1)$ is solvable, not necessarily uniquely, and $y$ is its minimal-norm solution. Assume that problem (1) is ill-posed. Let $f_\d$, $||f-f_d||\leq…

Supernilpotence is a generalization of nilpotence using a recently developed theory of higher-arity commutators for universal algebras. Many important structural properties have been shown to be associated with supernilpotence, and the…

We consider the product of infinitely many copies of a spin-$1\over 2$ system. We construct projection operators on the corresponding nonseparable Hilbert space which measure whether the outcome of an infinite sequence of $\sigma^x$…

It is shown that a positive (bounded linear) operator on a Hilbert space with trivial kernel is unitarily equivalent to a Hankel operator that satisfies double positivity condition if and only if it is non-invertible and has simple spectrum…

A sorting network is a shortest path from 12...n to n...21 in the Cayley graph of S_n generated by nearest-neighbour swaps. We prove that for a uniform random sorting network, as n->infinity the space-time process of swaps converges to the…

It is proved that any Rota---Baxter operator of zero weight on Jordan algebra of a nondegenerate bilinear symmetric form is nilpotent of index less or equal three. We state exact value of nilpotency index on simple Jordan algebra of…

Let $Q_n$ denote a random symmetric $n$ by $n$ matrix, whose upper diagonal entries are i.i.d. Bernoulli random variables (which take values 0 and 1 with probability 1/2). We prove that $Q_n$ is non-singular with probability…

This is an introduction to the algebras $A\subset B(H)$ that the linear operators $T:H\to H$ can form, once a complex Hilbert space $H$ is given. Motivated by quantum mechanics, we are mainly interested in the von Neumann algebras, which…

We point out that some of the proposed generalized/modified uncertainty principles originate from solvable, or nilpotent at appropriate limits, "deformations" of Lie algebras. We briefly comment on formal aspects related to the…

We classify all nonnilpotent, solvable Leibniz algebras with the property that all proper subalgebras are nilpotent. This generalizes the work of Stitzinger and Towers in Lie algebras. We show several examples which illustrate the…

Let $(W,H,\mu)$ be an abstract Wiener space and $L$ be a probability density of class LlogL. Using the measure transportation of Monge-Kantorovitch, we prove that the kernel of the projection of L on the second Wiener chaos defines an…

We extend results on finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras to Leibniz algebras and counterexamples to others are found. One generator algebras are used in these examples and are investigated further.
