A seminal result of Agler characterizes the so-called Schur-Agler class of functions on the polydisk in terms of a unitary colligation transfer function representation. We generalize this to the unit ball of the algebra of multipliers for a…

We introduce analogues of the Hopf algebra of Free quasi-symmetric functions with bases labelled by colored permutations. As applications, we recover in a simple way the descent algebras associated with wreath products $\Gamma\wr\SG_n$ and…

For $G$ an open set in $\mathbb{C}$ and $W$ a non-vanishing holomorphic function in $G$, in the late 1990's, Pritsker and Varga characterized pairs $(G,W)$ having the property that any $f$ holomorphic in $G$ can be locally uniformly…

The richly developed theory of complex manifolds plays important roles in our understanding of holomorphic functions in several complex variables. It is natural to consider manifolds that will play similar roles in the theory of holomorphic…

We provide a non-recursive, combinatorial classification of multiplicity-free skew Schur polynomials. These polynomials are $GL_n$, and $SL_n$, characters of the skew Schur modules. Our result extends work of H. Thomas--A. Yong, and C.…

Paolo Aluffi showed that the Chern--Schwartz--MacPherson class of the complement of a free arrangement agrees with the total Chern class of the sheaf of logarithmic derivations along the arrangement. We describe the defect of equality of…

We obtain a precise relation between the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a subvariety of projective space and the Euler characteristics of its general linear sections. In the case of a hypersurface, this leads to simple proofs of…

The Chern class of the sheaf of logarithmic derivations along a simple normal crossing divisor equals the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of the complement of the divisor. We extend this equality to more general divisors, which are locally…

Classical harmonic analysis says that the spaces of homogeneous harmonic polynomials (solutions of Laplace equation) are irreducible modules of the corresponding orthogonal Lie group (algebra) and the whole polynomial algebra is a free…

Let $E$ be a compact set in $\mathbb C$ with connected complement, and let $A(E)$ be the class of all complex continuous function on $E$ that are analytic in the interior $E^0$ of $E$. Let $f \in A(E)$ be zero free on $E^0$. By Mergelyan's…

In this paper we address the problem of classifying complex (non-homogeneous) quasihomogeneous polynomials in two variables under bi-Lipschitz equivalence. We prove that pairs of such polynomials are (right) bi-Lipschitz equivalent as…

We prove that Schur classes of nef vector bundles are limits of classes that have a property analogous to the Hodge-Riemann bilinear relations. We give a number of applications, including (1) new log-concavity statements about…

Let $f$ and $g$ be scalar-valued, continuous functions on some topological space. We say that $g$ dominates $f$ in the compatibility ordering if $g$ coincides with $f$ on the support of $f$. We prove that two compact Hausdorff spaces are…

We call a multivariable polynomial an Agler denominator if it is the denominator of a rational inner function in the Schur-Agler class, an important subclass of the bounded analytic functions on the polydisk. We give a necessary and…

We extend the polynomial method of Chen--Garza-Vargas--Tropp--van Handel and Magee--Puder--van Handel for operator-norm bounds in random permutation models to the setting where torsion is present. The main new feature is that asymptotic…

In this paper we extend the dichotomy given by Samuelsson and Wold that can be thought of as an analogue of the Wermer maximality theorem in $\mathbb{C}^2$ for certain polynomial polyhedra. We consider complex non-degenerate simply…

In this paper, the class of (complex) quasi-Herglotz functions is introduced as the complex vector space generated by the convex cone of ordinary Herglotz functions. We prove characterization theorems, in particular, an analytic…

As one of the asymptotic formulas for the zeta-function, Hardy and Littlewood gave asymptotic formulas called the approximate functional equation. In 2003, R. Garunk\v{s}tis, A. Laurin\v{c}ikas, and J. Steuding (in [1]) proved the…

We characterize functions of $d$-tuples of bounded operators on a Hilbert space that are uniformly approximable by free polynomials on balanced open sets.

Let $\mathscr{C}_\mathbb{Z}([0,1])$ be the metric space of real-valued continuous functions on $[0,1]$ with integer values at $0$ and $1$, equipped with the uniform (supremum) metric $d_\infty$. It is a classical theorem in approximation…
