We study processes with unstable particles in intermediate time-like states. It is shown that the amplitudes squared of such processes factor exactly in the framework of the model of unstable particles with continuous masses. Decay widths…
Buchweitz-Greuel-Schreyer conjectured in 1987 a lower bound on the ranks of matrix factorizations over certain local hypersurface rings. We study a graded version of this conjecture, and we show that it implies a novel conjecture concerning…
Let $\varphi\colon\Gamma\to G$ be a homomorphism of groups. We consider factorizations $\Gamma\xrightarrow{f} M\xrightarrow{g} G$ of $\varphi$ such that either $g$ or $f$ are universal normal maps (namely, crossed modules). These two…
In this paper we study the complexity of factorization of polynomials in the free noncommutative ring $\mathbb{F}\langle x_1,x_2,\dots,x_n\rangle$ of polynomials over the field $\mathbb{F}$ and noncommuting variables $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n$.…
We study matrix factorization and curved module categories for Landau-Ginzburg models (X,W) with X a smooth variety, extending parts of the work of Dyckerhoff. Following Positselski, we equip these categories with model category structures.…
Positive-definite matrices materialize as state transition matrices of linear time-invariant gradient flows, and the composition of such materializes as the state transition after successive steps where the driving potential is suitably…
We consider LU and QR matrix decompositions using exact computations. We show that fraction-free Gauss--Bareiss reduction leads to triangular matrices having a non-trivial number of common row factors. We identify two types of common…
Idempotent elements play a fundamental role in ring theory, as they encode significant information about the underlying algebraic structure. In this paper, we study idempotent matrices from two perspectives. First, we analyze the partially…
Nonunique factorization in cancellative commutative semigroups is often studied using combinatorial factorization invariants, which assign to each semigroup element a quantity determined by the factorization structure. For numerical…
In this paper we describe new noncommutative factorizations of functions related to $d$-th tensor powers of Carlitz's $\mathbb F_q[\theta]$-module for $d\geq 1$, called higher sine functions. In recent work by the second author,…
We introduce and investigate the category of factorization of a multiplicative, commutative, cancellative, pre-ordered monoid $A$, which we denote $\mathcal{F}(A)$. The objects of $\mathcal{F}(A)$ are factorizations of elements of $A$, and…
In the first part, we further advance the study of category theory in a strong balanced factorization category C [Pisani, 2008], a finitely complete category endowed with two reciprocally stable factorization systems such that X \to 1 is in…
The factorization of the universal R-matrix corresponding to so called Drinfeld Hopf structure is described on the example of quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{sl}_2)$. As a result of factorization procedure we deduce certain differential…
In the past decades, determinants and Pfaffians were found for eigenvalue correlations of various random matrix ensembles. These structures simplify the average over a large number of ratios of characteristic polynomials to integrations…
The proposed article aims at offering a comprehensive tutorial for the computational aspects of structured matrix and tensor factorization. Unlike existing tutorials that mainly focus on {\it algorithmic procedures} for a small set of…
We identify and analyse obstructions to factorisation of integer matrices into products $N^T N$ or $N^2$ of matrices with rational or integer entries. The obstructions arise as quadratic forms with integer coefficients and raise the…
The structure of the category of matroids and strong maps is investigated: it has coproducts and equalizers, but not products or coequalizers; there are functors from the categories of graphs and vector spaces, the latter being faithful;…
For rings R with identity, we define a class of nonlinear higher order recurrences on unitary left R-modules that include linear recurrences as special cases. We obtain conditions under which a recurrence of order k+1 in this class is…
Correlation functions of the two-dimensional Ising model on the periodic lattice can be expressed in terms of form factors - matrix elements of the spin operator in the basis of common eigenstates of the transfer matrix and translation…
In this work we consider the Takagi factorization of a matrix valued function depending on parameters. We give smoothness and genericity results and pay particular attention to the concerns caused by having either a singular value equal to…
