We generalize classical results in spectral graph theory and linear algebra more broadly, from the case where the underlying matrix is Hermitian to the case where it is non-Hermitian. New admissibility conditions are introduced to replace…

We construct spectral metric spaces for Gibbs measures on a one-sided topologically exact subshift of finite type. That is, for a given Gibbs measure we construct a spectral triple and show that Connes' corresponding pseudo-metric is a…

We prove that if $A$ and $B$ are Hadamard matrices which are both of size $4 \times 4$ or $5 \times 5$ and in dephased form, then $tr(A) = tr(B)$ implies that $A$ and $B$ have the same eigenvalues, including multiplicity. We calculate…

The first isospectral pairs of metrics are constructed on balls and spheres. This long standing problem, concerning the existence of such pairs, has been solved by a new method called "Anticommutator Technique." Among the wide range of such…

We consider pairs of anti-commuting $2p$-by-$2p$ Hermitian matrices that are chosen randomly with respect to a Gaussian measure. Generically such a pair decomposes into the direct sum of $2$-by-$2$ blocks on which the first matrix has…

We put forward a method that allows the experimental determination of the entire spatial mode spectrum of any arbitrary monochromatic wave field in a plane normal to its propagation direction. For coherent optical fields, our spatial…

A Hermitian-symplectic metric is a Hermitian metric whose K\"ahler form is given by the $(1,1)$-part of a closed $2$-form. Streets-Tian Conjecture states that a compact complex manifold admitting a Hermitian-symplectic metric must be…

If $\mu $ is a positive Borel measure on the interval $[0, 1)$, the Hankel matrix $\mathcal H_\mu =(\mu_{n,k})_{n,k\ge 0}$ with entries $\mu_{n,k}=\int_{[0,1)}t^{n+k}\,d\mu(t)$ induces formally the operator $$\mathcal{H}_\mu…

Spectral functions of symmetric matrices -- those depending on matrices only through their eigenvalues -- appear often in optimization. A cornerstone variational analytic tool for studying such functions is a formula relating their…

Take an interval $[t, t+1]$ on the $x$-axis together with the same interval on the $y$-axis and let $\rho$ be the normalized one-dimensional Lebesgue measure on this set of two segments. Continuing the work done by Lai, Liu and Prince…

We consider $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices with i.i.d. entries $X_{ij}$ whose tail probabilities $\mathbb {P}(|X_{ij}|\geq t)$ behave like $e^{-at^{\alpha}}$ for some $a>0$ and $\alpha \in(0,2)$. We establish a large deviation principle for…

Consider a Moran-type iterated function system (IFS) \( \{\phi_{k,d}\}_{d\in D_{2p_k}, k\geq 1} \), where each contraction map is defined as \[ \phi_{k,d}(x) = (-1)^d b_k^{-1}(x + d), \] with integer sequences \( \{b_k\}_{k=1}^\infty \) and…

A new class of sign-symmetric matrices is introduced in this paper. Such matrices are named J--sign-symmetric. The spectrum of a J--sign-symmetric irreducible matrix is studied under assumptions that its second compound matrix is also…

Let $\mathcal A\subseteq \mat$ be a unital $*$-subalgebra of the algebra $\mat$ of all $n\times n$ complex matrices and let $B$ be an hermitian matrix. Let $\U_n(B)$ denote the unitary orbit of $B$ in $\mat$ and let $\mathcal E_\mathcal A$…

We initiate the study of a quantitative measure for the failure of a binary operation to be commutative and associative. We call this measure the associative-commutative spectrum as it extends the so-called associative spectrum (also known…

The main result of this note is a tracial Nullstellensatz for free noncommutative polynomials evaluated at tuples of matrices of all sizes: Suppose f_1,...,f_r,f are free polynomials, and tr(f) vanishes whenever all tr(f_j) vanish. Then…

A Borel probability measure \( \mu \) with compact support on \( \mathbb{R}^n \) is called spectral measure if there exists a discrete set \( \Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^n \) such that \( E_\Lambda := \{e^{2\pi i \langle \lambda, x \rangle}:…

We introduce a countable collection of positivity classes for Hermitian symmetric functions on a complex manifold, and establish their basic properties. We study a related notion of stability. The first main result shows that, if the…

Let X be a strictly pseudoconcave domain in a closed polarized complex manifold (Y,L) where L is a (semi-)positive line bundle over Y. Any given Hermitian metric on L, together with a volume form, induces by restriction to X a Hilbert space…

We consider equally-weighted Cantor measures $\mu_{q,b}$ arising from iterated function systems of the form ${b^{-1}(x+i)}$, $i=0,1,...,q-1$, where $q<b$. We classify the $(q,b)$ so that they have infinitely many mutually orthogonal…
