We consider periodic matrix-valued Jacobi operators. The spectrum of this operator is absolutely continuous and consists of intervals separated by gaps. We define the Lyapunov function, which is analytic on an associated Riemann surface. On…
The paper gives an improvement of the Trudinger-Moser inequality, in which the constraint set is defined not by the squared gradient norm, but with the squared gradient norm minus a remainder term of the weighted L^p-type. This is a…
We confirm the Jamneshan-Tao conjecture for finite abelian groups of rank at most a fixed integer $R$ (i.e. finite abelian groups generated by at most $R$ elements), by proving an inverse theorem for 1-bounded functions of non-trivial…
Based on a less-known result, we prove a recent conjecture concerning the determinant of a certain Sylvester-Kac type matrix and consider an extension of it.
Anderson's paving conjectures are known to be equivalent to the Kadison-Singer problem. We prove some new equivalences of Anderson's conjectures that require the paving of smaller sets of matrices. We prove that if the strictly upper…
We extend a previous conjecture [cond-mat/0407477] relating the Perron-Frobenius eigenvector of the monodromy matrix of the O(1) loop model to refined numbers of alternating sign matrices. By considering the O(1) loop model on a…
For any $N\ts N$ monodromy matrix we define the Lyapunov function, which is analytic on an associated N-sheeted Riemann surface. On each sheet the Lyapunov function has the standard properties of the Lyapunov function for the Hill operator.…
In 2018 Kashaev introduced a diagrammatic link invariant conjectured to be twice the Levine-Tristram signature. If true, the conjecture would provide a simple way of computing the Levine-Tristram signature of a link by taking the signature…
Constant rank theorems are obtained for saddle solutions to the special Lagrangian equation and the quadratic Hessian equation. The argument also leads to Liouville type results for the special Lagrangian equation with subcritical phase,…
We prove that for every trace zero matrix $A$ over a principal ideal ring $R$, there exist trace zero matrices $X,Y$ over $R$ such that $XY-YX=A$. Moreover, we show that $X$ can be taken to be regular mod every maximal ideal of $R$. This…
For any connected complex reductive group $G$ and element $z$ of its Weyl group $W$, we use work of Lusztig and Abreu-Nigro to compute the graded $W$-character of the intersection cohomology of any closed Lusztig variety for $z$ over the…
In 2010, B. Rhoades proved that promotion together with the fake-degree polynomial associated with rectangular standard Young tableaux give an instance of the cyclic sieving phenomenon. We extend this result to all skew standard Young…
Fortin and Reutenauer defined the non-commutative rank for a matrix with entries that are linear functions. The non-commutative rank is related to stability in invariant theory, non-commutative arithmetic circuits, and Edmonds' problem. We…
We prove a two-term quasi-classical trace asymptotic formula for the functions of multi-dimensional Wiener-Hopf operators with discontinuous symbols. The discontinuities occur on the surfaces which are assumed to be piece-wise smooth. Such…
We develop a theory of polymatroids on Stallings core graphs, which provides a new technique for proving lower bounds on stable invariants of words and subgroups in free groups $F$, and for upper bounds on their probability for mapping,…
We show that for any positive integer $d$, there are families of switched linear systems---in fixed dimension and defined by two matrices only---that are stable under arbitrary switching but do not admit (i) a polynomial Lyapunov function…
Let $E/\mathbf{Q}$ be an elliptic curve of conductor $N$, let $p>3$ be a prime where $E$ has good ordinary reduction, and let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field satisfying the Heegner hypothesis. In 1987, Perrin-Riou formulated an Iwasawa…
Perrin-Riou has formulated a form of the Iwasawa main conjecture, which relates Heegner points to the Selmer group of an elliptic curve as one goes up the anticyclotomic Z_p extension of a quadratic imaginary field K. Building on the…
We construct commutative algebra spectra that represent the operator $K$-theory of $C^*$-algebras, which are algebras over the commutative ring spectra that represent topological $K$-theory. The spectral multiplicative structure introduces…
In [Frobenius1896] it was shown that many important properties of a finite group could be examined using formulas involving the character ratios of group elements, i.e., the trace of the element acting in a given irreducible representation,…
