Let $(V,q)$ be a vector bundle on a smooth projective curve $X$ together with a quadratic form $q: \mathrm{Sym}^2(V) \ra \mathcal{O}_X$ (respectively symplectic form $q: \Lambda^2V \ra \mathcal{O}_X$). Fixing the degeneracy locus of the…

Fix a point in a finite-dimensional complex vector space and consider the sequence of iterates of this point under the composition of a unitary map with the orthogonal projection on the hyperplane orthogonal to the starting point. We prove…

Recently [Karimipour and Memarzadeh, Phys. Rev. A 73, 012329 (2006)] studied the problem of finding a family of orthonormal bases in a bipartite space each of dimension $D$ with the following properties: (i) The family continuously…

In this article, we present what we believe to be a simple way to motivate the use of Hilbert spaces in quantum mechanics. To achieve this, we study the way the notion of dimension can, at a very primitive level, be defined as the…

We study homogenization by Gamma-convergence of periodic multiple integrals of the calculus of variations when the integrand can take infinite values outside of a convex set of matrices.

This paper asks if the following iterative procedure approximately orthogonalizes a set of $n$ linearly independent unit vectors while preserving their span: in each iteration, access a random pair of vectors and replace one with the…

A commutative associative algebra A with an identity over the field of real numbers which has a basis, where all elements are invertible, is considered in the work. Moreover, among matrixes consisting of the structure constants of A, there…

We introduce the concept of bi-conformal transformation, as a generalization of conformal ones, by allowing two orthogonal parts of a manifold with metric $\G$ to be scaled by different conformal factors. In particular, we study their…

It is sometimes desirable to produce for a nonlinear system of ODEs a new representation of simpler structural form, but it is well known that this goal may imply an increase in the dimension of the system. This is what happens if in this…

Let V be an n-dimensional vector space and let On be the orthogonal group. Motivated by a question of B. Szegedy (B. Szegedy, Edge coloring models and reflection positivity, Journal of the American Mathematical Society Volume 20, Number 4,…

Given a finite set $\{M_0,\dots,M_{d-1}\}$ of nonnegative $2\times 2$ matrices and a nonnegative column-vector $V$, we associate to each $(\omega_n)\in\{0,\dots,d-1\}^\mathbb N$ the sequence of the column-vectors…

In this paper we study sequences of vector orthogonal polynomials. The vector orthogonality presented here provides a reinterpretation of what is known in the literature as matrix orthogonality. These systems of orthogonal polynomials…

The starting point of this work is that the class of evolution algebras over a fixed field is closed under tensor product. This arises questions about the inheritance of properties from the tensor product to the factors and conversely. For…

We use representation theory to construct spaces of matrices of constant rank. These spaces are parametrized by the natural representation of the general linear group or the symplectic group. We present variants of this idea, with more…

Some new counterparts of Bessel's inequality for orthornormal families in real or complex inner product spaces are pointed out. Applications for some Gruss type inequalities are also empahsized.

It is shown that if a representation of a *-algebra on a vector space $V$ is an irreducible *-representation with respect to some inner product on $V$ then under appropriate technical conditions this property determines the inner product…

In this paper, we consider a classical Hamiltonian normal form with degeneracy in normal direction. In previous results, one needs to assume that the perturbation satisfies certain non-degenerate conditions in order to remove the degeneracy…

The construction of nonlocal sets of quantum states has attracted much attention in recent years. We first introduce two Lemmas related to the triviality of orthogonality-preserving local measurements. Then we propose a general construction…

Orthogonal spaces are vector spaces together with a quadratic form whose associated bilinear form is non-degenerate. Over fields of characteristic two, there are many quadratic forms associated to a given bilinear form and quadratic…

In this paper we develop a duality theory for all finite-dimensional near-vector spaces and introduce a notion of inner product tailored to the broad and natural class of strongly regular near-vector spaces. This generalized construction…
