Let $K$ be any unital commutative $\bQ$-algebra and $z=(z_1, z_2, ..., z_n)$ commutative or noncommutative variables. Let $t$ be a formal central parameter and $\kttzz$ the formal power series algebra of $z$ over $K[[t]]$. In \cite{GTS-II},…

Let's fix a reasonable subsystem $T$ of arithmetic; why are natural extensions of $T$ pre-well-ordered by consistency strength? In previous work, an approach to this question was proposed. The goal of this work was to classify the recursive…

The present work focuses on the study of the renowned Collatz conjecture, also known as the $3x +1$ problem. The distinguished analysis approach lies on the dynamics of an iterative map in binary form. A new estimation of the enlargement of…

Functional principal component analysis is essential in functional data analysis, but the inferences will become unconvincing when some non-Gaussian characteristics occur, such as heavy tail and skewness. The focus of this paper is to…

For an invertible linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $H$, put \[ \alpha(T^*,T) := -T^{*2}T^2 + (1+r^2) T^* T - r^2 I, \] where $I$ stands for the identity operator on $H$ and $r\in (0,1)$; this expression comes from applying Agler's…

We introduce a notion of a noncommutative function defined on a domain of $d$-tuples of bounded operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. Inverse and implicit function theorems in this setting are established. When these…

Properties of the mappings \begin{align*} C&\mapsto\frac1{(2\pi i)^2}\int_{\Gamma_1}\int_{\Gamma_2}f(\lambda,\mu)\,R_{1,\,\lambda}\,C\, R_{2,\,\mu}\,d\mu\,d\lambda, C&\mapsto\frac1{2\pi i}\int_{\Gamma}g(\lambda)R_{1,\,\lambda}\,C\,…

Classical functional calculus is primarily spectral, capturing eigenvalue information through resolvent methods while largely ignoring nilpotent structure. Building on the projector-nilpotent characterization developed in our companion…

This paper is concerned with the algebraic K-theory of locally convex algebras stabilized by operator ideals, and its comparison with topological K-theory. We show that the obstruction for the comparison map between algebraic and…

In this paper we use the notion of slice monogenic functions \cite{slicecss} to define a new functional calculus for an $n$-tuple $T$ of not necessarily commuting operators. This calculus is different from the one discussed in…

The famous 3x + 1 problem of L. Collatz needs no introduction; however, this paper concerns a lesser-known, but similarly unresolved, precursor problem : the Original Collatz Conjecture, or OCC. We demonstrate that the core arithmetic…

In this paper, we introduce and study the notion of super-recurrence of operators. We investigate some properties of this class of operators and show that it shares some characteristics with supercyclic and recurrent operators. In…

We develop a new approach to recurrence and the existence of non-constant harmonic functions on infinite weighted graphs. The approach is based on the capacity of subsets of metric boundaries with respect to intrinsic metrics. The main tool…

We discuss the classes $\fC$, $\fM$, and $\fS$ of analytic functions that can be realized as the Liv\v{s}ic characteristic functions of a symmetric densely defined operator $\dot A$ with deficiency indices $(1,1)$, the Weyl-Titchmarsh…

A complex function $f(z)$ is called a Herglotz-Nevanlinna function if it is holomorphic in the upper half-plane ${\mathbb C}_+$ and maps ${\mathbb C}_+$ into itself. By a maximum principle a Herglotz-Nevanlinna function which takes a real…

Correlators of gauge invariant operators provide useful information on the dynamics, phases and spectra of a quantum field theory. In this paper, we consider N=1 supersymmetric theories and focus our attention on the supercurrent multiplet.…

For linear operators $L, T$ and nonlinear maps $P$, we describe classes of simple maps $F = I - P T$, $F = L - P$ between Banach and Hilbert spaces, for which no point has more than two preimages. The classes encompass known examples…

In this paper, we address the existence of Fredholm backstepping transformations for self-adjoint and skew-adjoint operators $A$. Under suitable assumptions on the operator $A$ and the possibly unbounded control operator $B$, we prove the…

We present a general theory to quantify the uncertainty from imposing structural assumptions on the second-order structure of nonstationary Hilbert space-valued processes, which can be measured via functionals of time-dependent spectral…

Let $f$ and $g$ be analytic on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$. The integral operator $T_g$ is defined by $ T_g f(z) = \int_0^z f(t)g'(t)\,dt$, $z \in \mathbb{D}$. The problem considered is characterizing those symbols $g$ for which $T_g$ acting…
