This article studies bivariate multiple orthogonal polynomials of the mixed type on the step-line. The analysis is based on the LU factorization of a moment matrix specifically adapted to this framework. The orthogonality and…
We obtain conditions for a trigonometric polynomial t of one variable to equal or be approximated by |p|^2 where p has frequencies in a Bohr set of integers obtained by projecting lattice points in the open planar region bounded by the…
We consider the factorization of permutations into bandwidth 1 permutations, which are products of mutually nonadjacent simple transpositions. We exhibit an upper bound on the minimal number of such factors and thus prove a conjecture of…
Graded rings provide a natural algebraic framework for encoding symmetry via decompositions into homogeneous components indexed by a group, together with multiplication rules reflecting the group operation. Among graded rings, strongly…
The spectral factorization mapping $F\to F^+$ puts a positive definite integrable matrix function $F$ having an integrable logarithm of the determinant in correspondence with an outer analytic matrix function $F^+$ such that $F =…
In the theory of disordered systems the spectral form factor $S(\tau)$, the Fourier transform of the two-level correlation function with respect to the difference of energies, is linear for $\tau<\tau_c$ and constant for $\tau>\tau_c$. Near…
We give rigorous foundations for parametrized homotopy theory in this monograph. After preliminaries on point-set topology, base change functors, and proper actions of non-compact Lie groups, we develop the homotopy theory of equivariant…
In this paper, we explore quadratures for the evaluation of $B^T \phi(A) B$ where $A$ is a symmetric positive-definite (s.p.d.) matrix in $\mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$, $B$ is a tall matrix in $\mathbb{R}^{n \times p}$, and $\phi(\cdot)$…
A factorization formula for wave functions, which is basic in the inverse spectral transform approach to initial-boundary value problems, is proved in greater generality than before. Applications follow. Related compatibility questions for…
In this paper we investigate the spectral and the scattering theory of Gauss--Bonnet operators acting on perturbed periodic combinatorial graphs. Two types of perturbation are considered: either a multiplication operator by a short-range or…
We follow a stream of the history of positive matrices and positive functionals, as applied to algebraic sums of squares decompositions, with emphasis on the interaction between classical moment problems, function theory of one or several…
We examine two questions regarding Fourier frequencies for a class of iterated function systems (IFS). These are iteration limits arising from a fixed finite families of affine and contractive mappings in $\br^d$, and the ``IFS'' refers to…
We compute the mixed correlation function in a way which involves only the orthogonal polynomials with degrees close to $n$, (in some sense like the Christoffel Darboux theorem for non-mixed correlation functions). We also derive new…
The techniques for polynomial interpolation and Gaussian quadrature are generalized to matrix-valued functions. It is shown how the zeros and rootvectors of matrix orthonormal polynomials can be used to get a quadrature formula with the…
A short introduction to the use of the spectral theorem for self-adjoint operators in the theory of special functions is given. As the first example, the spectral theorem is applied to Jacobi operators, i.e. tridiagonal operators, on…
For a family of fractal measures, we find an explicit Fourier duality. The measures in the pair have compact support in $\br^d$, and they both have the same matrix scaling. But the two use different translation vectors, one by a subset $B$…
This paper contains a re-evaluation of the spectral approach and factorizability for regular matrix polynomials. In addition, solvent theory is extended from the monic and comonic cases to the regular case. The classification of extended…
We study Jacobi matrices on trees whose coefficients are generated by multiple orthogonal polynomials. Hilbert space decomposition into an orthogonal sum of cyclic subspaces is obtained. For each subspace, we find generators and the…
Euclidean distance matrices corresponding to an arithmetic progression have rich spectral and structural properties. We exploit those properties to develop completely positive factorizations of translations of those matrices. We show that…
