The singular value decomposition of a complex matrix is a fundamental concept in linear algebra and has proved extremely useful in many subjects. It is less clear what the situation is over a finite field. In this paper, we classify the…
The classical invariant theory for the queer Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{q}_n$ investigates its invariants in the supersymmetric algebra $$\mathcal{U}_{s,l}^{r,k}:=\mathrm{Sym}\left(V^{\oplus r}\oplus \Pi(V)^{\oplus k}\oplus V^{*\oplus…
We use methods of the general theory of congruence and *congruence for complex matrices--regularization and cosquares-to determine a unitary congruence canonical form (respectively, a unitary *congruence canonical form) for complex matrices…
We establish a determinant formula for the bilinear form associated with the elliptic hypergeometric integrals of type $BC_n$ by studying the structure of $q$-difference equations to be satisfied by them. The determinant formula is proved…
Noncompact forms of the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum groups U_q(g) with (H_i)* = H_i, (X_i^{+-})* = s_i X_i^{-+} for s_i= +-1 are studied at roots of unity. This covers g = so(n,2p), su(n,p), so*(2l), sp(n,p), sp(l,R), and exceptional cases.…
Extending our earlier study of nonlinear Bogolyubov-Valatin transformations (canonical transformations for fermions) for one fermionic mode, in the present paper we perform a thorough study of general (nonlinear) canonical transformations…
This paper studies the noncommutative singularity theory of the double $A_n$ quiver $Q_n$ (with a single loop at each vertex), with applications to algebraic geometry and representation theory. We give various intrinsic definitions of a…
An elliptic $BC_n$ generalization of the classical two parameter Bailey Lemma is proved, and a basic one parameter $BC_n$ Bailey Lemma is obtained as a limiting case. Several summation and transformation formulas associated with the root…
We give canonical forms of selfadjoint and isometric operators on a complex vector space $U$ with scalar product given by a positive semidefinite Hermitian form, and of Hermitian forms on $U$. For an arbitrary system of semiunitary spaces…
Let $G=SO_0(1,n)$ be the conformal group acting on the $(n-1)$ dimensional sphere $S$, and let $(\pi_\lambda)_{\lambda\in \mathbb C}$ be the spherical principal series. For generic values of $\boldsymbol \lambda…
A quantum deformation of the adjoint action of the special linear group on the variety of nilpotent matrices is introduced. New non-embedded quantum homogeneous spaces are obtained related to certain maximal coadjoint orbits, and known…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field. Modular forms for GL(2) over $K$ are known as Bianchi modular forms. Standard modularity conjectures assert that every weight 2 rational Bianchi newform has either an associated elliptic curve over…
Classifications and representations are two main topics in the theory of quadratic forms. In this paper, we consider these topics of ternary quadratic forms. For a given squarefree integer $N$, first we give the classification of positive…
A square matrix is nonderogatory if its Jordan blocks have distinct eigenvalues. We give canonical forms (i) for nonderogatory complex matrices up to unitary similarity and (ii) for pairs of complex matrices up to similarity, in which one…
For $U(2)$-invariant 4-metrics, we show that the $B^t$-flat metrics are very different from the other canonical metrics (Bach-flat, Einstein, extremal K\"ahler, etc). We show every $U(2)$-invariant metric is conformal to two separate…
The paper considers subspaces of the strictly upper triangular matrices, which are stable under Lie bracket with any upper triangular matrix. These subspaces are called ad-nilpotent ideals and there are Catalan number of such subspaces.…
First, I construct an isomorphism between the categories of (topological) groups of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center and (topological) Lie rings of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center. That isomorphism allows us to…
We consider the conjugation-action of an arbitrary upper-block parabolic subgroup of GL_n(C) on the variety of x-nilpotent complex matrices. We obtain a criterion as to whether the action admits a finite number of orbits and specify a…
We carry out the N=1 supersymmetrization of a physical non-Abelian tensor with non-trivial consistent couplings in four dimensions. Our system has three multiplets: (i) The usual non-Abelian vector multiplet (VM) (A_\mu{}^I, \lambda^I),…
The rules of canonical quantization normally offer good results, but sometimes they fail, e.g., leading to quantum triviality ($=$ free) for certain examples that are classically nontrivial ($\ne$ free). A new procedure, called Enhanced…
