Let $b$ be a non-degenerate symmetric (respectively, alternating) bilinear form on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$, over a field with characteristic different from $2$. In a previous work, we have determined the maximal possible…

Using quaternions and octonions, we construct some maps from the Grassmannian of 2-dimensional planes of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $\mathrm{Gr}_2(\mathbb{R}^n)$, to the projective space $\mathbb{R}\mathrm{P}^k$, for certain values of $n$ and $k$. All…

We provide a direct proof of a result regarding the asymptotic behavior of alternating nearest point projections onto two closed and convex sets in a Hilbert space. Our arguments are based on nonexpansive mapping theory.

We obtain a general concept of triplet of Hilbert spaces with closed (unbounded) embeddings instead of continuous (bounded) ones. The construction starts with a positive selfadjoint operator $H$, that is called the Hamiltonian of the…

We recursively compute the Gromov-Witten invariants of the Hilbert scheme of two points in the plane. By studying the space of stable maps and computing virtual contributions, we use these invariants to enumerate hyperelliptic plane curves…

In this article, we give a complete characterization of the bijective maps which commute with the mean transform under Jordan product. The main result is the following : Let $H,K$ be two complex Hilbert spaces and $\Phi :B(H) \to B(K)$ be a…

Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal F}_{s}(H)$ be the real vector space of all self-adjoint finite rank operators on $H$. We prove the following non-injective version of Wigner's theorem: every linear operator on…

The paper is devoted to the problem of classification of extremal positive maps acting between $B(K)$ and $B(H)$ where $K$ and $H$ are Hilbert spaces. It is shown that every positive map with the property that $\rank \phi(P)\leq 1$ for any…

We identify a region $\Bbb{W}_{\f{1}{3}}$ in a Grassmann manifold $\grs{n}{m}$, not covered by a usual matrix coordinate chart, with the following important property. For a complete $n-$submanifold in $\ir{n+m} \, (n\ge 3, m\ge2)$ with…

We construct geometric barriers for minimal graphs in H^n xR. We prove the existence and uniqueness of a solution of the vertical minimal equation in the interior of a convex polyhedron in H^n extending continuously to the interior of each…

A continuous map $\mathbb{C}^n\to Gr(\tau, N)$ is $k$-regular if the $\tau$-dimensional subspaces corresponding to images of any $k$ distinct points span a $\tau k$-dimensional space. For $\tau = 1$ this essentially recovers the classical…

We develope a local theory for frames on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces. In particular, a bounded frame on a finite dimensional Hilbert space contains a subset which is a good Riesz basis for a percentage (arbitrarily close to one) of…

We prove that an anisotropic minimal graph over a half-space with flat boundary must itself be flat. This generalizes a result of Edelen-Wang to the anisotropic case. The proof uses only the maximum principle and ideas from fully nonlinear…

We study normal forms for families of area-preserving maps which have a fixed point with neutral multipliers -1 or +1 at epsilon=0. Our study covers both the orientation-preserving and orientation-reversing cases. In these cases Birkhoff…

The theory of positive maps plays a central role in operator algebras and functional analysis, and has countless applications in quantum information science. The theory was originally developed for operators acting on complex Hilbert…

The Grassmann angle improves upon similar angles between subspaces that measure volume contraction in orthogonal projections. It works in real or complex spaces, with important differences, and is asymmetric, what makes it more efficient…

Hilbert volume is an invariant of real projective geometry. Polygons inscribed in polygons are considered for the real projective plane. The correspondence between Fock-Goncharov and Cartesian coordinates is examined. Degeneration and…

We prove the existence of a one parameter family of minimal embedded hypersurfaces in $R^{n+1}$, for $n \geq 3$, which generalize the well known 2 dimensional "Riemann minimal surfaces". The hypersurfaces we obtain are complete, embedded,…
