In this article we prove a version of Kolyvagin's conjecture for modular forms at non-ordinary primes. In particular, we generalize the work of Wang on a converse to a higher weight Gross-Zagier-Kolyvagin theorem in order to prove the…
Let $\mathscr{L}$ denote the $\mathbf{Q}$-vector space of logarithms of algebraic numbers. In this expository work, we provide an introduction to the study of ranks of matrices with coefficients in $\mathscr{L}$. We begin by considering a…
The rank additivity conjecture, first formulated by Volker Strassen in 1973, states that the rank of the direct sum of two independent tensors is equal to the sum of their individual ranks. In the last decades, this conjecture has been a…
In this article the well known "Perron-Frobenius theory" is investigated involving the higher rank numerical range $\Lambda_{k}(A)$ of an irreducible and entrywise nonnegative matrix $A$ and extending the notion of elements of maximum…
We study the existence and the number of $k$-neighborly reorientations of an oriented matroid. This leads to $k$-variants of McMullen's problem and Roudneff's conjecture, the case $k=1$ being the original statements on complete cells in…
We study the relationship between the commutative and the non-commutative rank of a linear matrix. We give examples that show that the ratio of the two ranks comes arbitrarily close to 2. Such examples can be used for giving lower bounds…
Let $\mathscr{M}$ be a $II_1$ factor acting on the Hilbert space $\mathscr{H}$, and $\mathscr{M}_{\textrm{aff}}$ be the Murray-von Neumann algebra of closed densely-defined operators affiliated with $\mathscr{M}$. Let $\tau$ denote the…
In the summer of 2013 Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava gave a surprising and beautiful solution to the Kadison--Singer problem. The current presentation is slightly more didactical than other versions that have appeared since; it hopes to…
In this article we consider the Markovian products of invertible (not necessarily positive) matrices chosen from a strongly irreducible, contracting, finite set of matrices. We construct Markovian transfer operators and prove the spectral…
The classical Riemann-Roch theorem has been extended by N. Nadirashvili and then M. Gromov and M. Shubin to computing indices of elliptic operators on compact (as well as non-compact) manifolds, when a divisor mandates a finite number of…
Products of $M$ i.i.d. random matrices of size $N \times N$ are related to classical limit theorems in probability theory ($N=1$ and large $M$), to Lyapunov exponents in dynamical systems (finite $N$ and large $M$), and to universality in…
We fully describe the general form of a linear (or conjugate-linear) rank metric isometry on the Murray--von Neumann algebra associated with a II$_1$-factor. As an application, we establish Frobenius' theorem in the setting of…
In the past few years, the slice-rank lemma of Tao has been applied successfully to many problems in extremal combinatorics. In this paper, first, we define a new notion of triangular tensors which generalizes that of triangular matrices…
We prove some new equivalences of the paving conjecture and obtain some estimates on the paving constants. In addition we give a new family of counterexamples to one of the Akemann-Anderson conjectures.
The article is concerned with the problem of the additivity of the tensor rank. That is for two independent tensors we study when the rank of their direct sum is equal to the sum of their individual ranks. The statement saying that…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a semi-finite von Neumann algebra and let $f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ be a Lipschitz function. If $A,B\in\mathcal{M}$ are self-adjoint operators such that $[A,B]\in L_1(\mathcal{M}),$ then…
We study a conjectural relationship among Donaldson-Thomas type invariants on Calabi-Yau 3-folds counting torsion sheaves supported on ample divisors, ideal sheaves of curves and Pandharipande-Thomas's stable pairs. The conjecture is a…
A family of discrete Schroedinger operators is investigated through scattering theory. The continuous spectrum of these operators exhibit changes of multiplicity, and some of these operators possess resonances at thresholds. It is shown…
About last 70s, Haynsworth [6] used a result of the Schur complement to refine a determinant inequality for positive definite matrices. Haynsworth's result was improved by Hartfiel [5]. We extend their result to a larger class of matrices,…
The affine Grassmannian of $SL_n$ admits an embedding into the Sato Grassmannian, which further admits a Pl\"ucker embedding into the projectivization of Fermion Fock space. Kreiman, Lakshmibai, Magyar, and Weyman describe the linear part…
