We construct generic real symmetric tensors with only real eigenvectors or, equivalently, real homogeneous polynomials with the maximum possible finite number of critical points on the sphere.
Tensors are multidimensional analogs of matrices. In this paper, based on degree-theoretic ideas, we study homogeneous nonlinear complementarity problems induced by tensors. By specializing this to $Z$-tensors (which are tensors with…

We construct creation and annihilation operators for harmonic oscillators with minimal length uncertainty relations. We discuss a possible generalization to a large class of deformations of cannonical commutation relations. We also discuss…
Truncated Toeplitz operators in a model space are C--symmetric with respect to a natural conjugation in that space. We show that this and another conjugation associated to an orthogonal decomposition possess unique properties and we study…
Supersymmetry transformations of first and second order are used to generate Hamiltonians with known spectra departing from the harmonic oscillator with an infinite potential barrier. It is studied also the way in which the eigenfunctions…

We define new norms for symmetric tensors over ordered normed spaces; these norms are defined by considering linear combinations of tensor products or powers of positive elements only. Relations between the different norms are studied. The…

Isotropic functions of positions $\hat{\bf r}_1, \hat{\bf r}_2,\ldots, \hat{\bf r}_N$, i.e. functions invariant under simultaneous rotations of all the coordinates, are conveniently formed using spherical harmonics and Clebsch-Gordan…
We treat the quantum dynamics of a harmonic oscillator as well as its inverted counterpart in the Schr\"odinger picture. Generally in the most papers of the literature, the inverted harmonic oscillator is formally obtained from the harmonic…

The Hyperspherical Harmonics basis, without a previous symmetrization step, is used to calculate binding energies of the nuclear A=6 systems using a version of the Volkov potential acting only on s-wave. The aim of this work is to…
Strassen (Strassen, J. Reine Angew. Math., 375/376, 1987) introduced the subrank of a tensor as a natural extension of matrix rank to tensors. Subrank measures the largest diagonal tensor that can be obtained by applying linear operations…
In this paper, we propose a factorization of a fourth-order harmonic tensor into second-order tensors. We obtain moreover explicit equivariant reconstruction formulas, using second-order covariants, for transverse isotropic and orthotropic…
We show that resonance phenomena can be treated as nonequilibrium phase transitions. Resonance phenomena, similar to equilibrium phase transitions, are accompanied by some kind of symmetry breaking and can be characterized by order…
We study nonlinear vibrational modes of oscillations for tetrahedral configurations of particles. In the case of tetraphosphorus, the interaction of atoms is given by bond stretching and van der Waals forces. Using equivariant gradient…
It was recently established that a function which is harmonic on an infinite cylinder and vanishes on the boundary necessarily extends to an entire harmonic function. This paper considers harmonic functions on an annular cylinder which…
