Determinantal point processes (DPPs for short) are a class of repulsive point processes. They have found some statistical applications to model spatial point pattern datasets with repulsion between close points. In the case of DPPs on…

Denote $\Sigma_n$ and $Q_n$ the set of all $n \times n$ symmetric and skew-symmetric matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$, respectively, where $char(\mathbb{F})\neq 2$ and $\lvert \mathbb{F} \rvert \geq n^2+1$. A characterization of…

The integral of a function $f$ defined on a symmetric space $M \simeq G/K$ may be expressed in the form of a determinant (or Pfaffian), when $f$ is $K$-invariant and, in a certain sense, a tensor power of a positive function of a single…

Let $\lambda =\left( \lambda_{1},\lambda_{2},...,\lambda_{r}\right) $ be an integer partition, and $\left[p_{\lambda }\right] $ the $q$-analog of the symmetric power function $%p_{\lambda }$. This $q$-analogue has been defined as a special…

Let X be a locally compact Polish space and let m be a reference Radon measure on X. Let $\Gamma_X$ denote the configuration space over X, that is, the space of all locally finite subsets of X. A point process on X is a probability measure…

Some subadditivity results involving symmetric (unitarily invariant) norms are obtained. For instance, if $g(t)=\sum_{k=0}^m a_kt^k$ is a polynomial of degree $m$ with non-negative coefficients, then, for all positive operators $A,\,B$ and…

In this paper, we study certain determinants over finite fields. Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field of $q$ elements and let $a_1,a_2,\cdots,a_{q-1}$ be all nonzero elements of $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let…

This paper presents a noncommutative theory of symmetric functions, based on the notion of quasi-determinant. We begin with a formal theory, corresponding to the case of symmetric functions in an infinite number of independent variables.…

We conjecture two combinatorial interpretations for the symmetric function $\Delta_{e_k} e_n$, where $\Delta_f$ is an eigenoperator for the modified Macdonald polynomials defined by Bergeron, Garsia, Haiman, and Tesler. Both interpretations…

This paper is motivated by basic complexity and probability questions about permanents of random matrices over finite fields, and in particular, about properties separating the permanent and the determinant. Fix $q = p^m$ some power of an…

As well as arising naturally in the study of non-intersecting random paths, random spanning trees, and eigenvalues of random matrices, determinantal point processes (sometimes also called fermionic point processes) are relatively easy to…

We study representations of positive definite kernels $K$ in a general setting, but with view to applications to harmonic analysis, to metric geometry, and to realizations of certain stochastic processes. Our initial results are stated for…

Symmetric kernel matrices are a well-researched topic in the literature of kernel based approximation. In particular stability properties in terms of lower bounds on the smallest eigenvalue of such symmetric kernel matrices are thoroughly…

We show that a formal power series in $2N$ non-commuting indeterminates is a positive non-commutative kernel if and only if the kernel on $N$-tuples of matrices of any size obtained from this series by matrix substitution is positive. We…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero, $\mathcal A$ a $K$-algebra and $\delta$ a $K$-derivation of $\mathcal A$ or $K$-$\mathcal E$-derivation of $\mathcal A$ (i.e., $\delta=\operatorname{Id}_A-\phi$ for some $K$-algebra endomorphism…

We study the approximation of a square-integrable function from a finite number of evaluations on a random set of nodes according to a well-chosen distribution. This is particularly relevant when the function is assumed to belong to a…

We study discrete (duality) symmetries of functional determinants. An exact transformation of the effective action under the inversion of background fields $\beta (x) \to \beta^{-1}(x)$ is found. We show that in many cases this inversion…

We establish an invertibility criterion for free polynomials and free functions evaluated on some tuples of matrices. We show that if the derivative is nonsingular on some domain closed with respect to direct sums and similarity, the…

For a fixed polynomial $\Delta$, we study the number of polynomials $f$ of degree $n$ over $\mathbb F_q$ such that $f$ and $f+\Delta$ are both irreducible, an $\mathbb F_q[T]$-analogue of the twin primes problem. In the large-$q$ limit, we…

Functional determinants of differential operators play a prominent role in theoretical and mathematical physics, and in particular in quantum field theory. They are, however, difficult to compute in non-trivial cases. For one dimensional…
