We extend the multiplicative submodularity of the principal determinants of a nonnegative definite hermitian matrix to other spectral functions. We show that if $f$ is the primitive of a function that is operator monotone on an interval…

A notion of the limit spectral measure of a metric triple (i.e., a metric measure space) is defined. If the metric is square integrable, then the limit spectral measure is deterministic and coinsides with the spectrum of the integral…

We study certain pairs of subspaces $V$ and $W$ of $\mathbb{C}^n$ we call supports that consist of eigenspaces of the eigenvalues $\pm\|M\|$ of a minimal hermitian matrix $M$ ($\|M\|\leq \|M+D\|$ for all real diagonals $D$). For any pair of…

We analyse a class of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, which can be expressed bilinearly in terms of generators of a sl(2,R)-Lie algebra or their isomorphic su(1,1)-counterparts. The Hamlitonians are prototypes for solvable models of Lie…

We use nearly parallel pure states to characterize positive linear functionals $\phi$ on $\mathbb{M}_n$ as positive multiples of the trace if and only if $\phi(A \natural B) \leq \sqrt{\phi(A) \phi(B)}$ for all positive definite matrices…

Let $\mu$ be a measure on $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$ generating a non-compact and totally irreducible subgroup, let $\chi>0$ denote its Lyapunov exponent, and let $\nu$ be the associated stationary (Furstenberg) measure for the action on the…

We introduce a class of Hermitian metrics, that we call pluriclosed star split, generalising both the astheno-K\"ahler metrics of Jost and Yau and the $(n-2)$-Gauduchon metrics of Fu-Wang-Wu on complex manifolds. They have links with…

In a series of lectures Selberg introduced a trace formula on the space of hybrid Maass-modular forms of an irreducible uniform lattice in $\PSL_2(\bbR)^n$. In this paper we derive the analogous formula for a non-uniform lattice and use it…

For a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space on a complex domain we give a formula that describes the Hermitean metrics on the domain which are pull-backs of some metric on the (dual of) the RKHS via the evaluation map. Then we consider the…

We investigate the metric structure of nonassociative $\mathrm{L}^p$-spaces associated with tracial $\mathrm{JW}^*$-algebras. While noncommutative $\mathrm{L}^p$-spaces arising from von Neumann algebras enjoy a unique natural norm, the…

We give a characterization of commutative semispectral measures by means of Feller and Strong Feller Markov kernels. In particular: {itemize} we show that a semispectral measure $F$ is commutative if and only if there exist a self-adjoint…

The BMV conjecture states that for $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ the function $f_{A,B}(t)=trace{\, } e^{tA+B}$ is exponentially convex. Recently the BMV conjecture was proved by Herbert Stahl. The proof of Herbert Stahl is…

Consider the polynomial $tr (A + tB)^m$ in $t$ for positive hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ with $m \in \N$. The Bessis-Moussa-Villani conjecture (in the equivalent form of Lieb and Seiringer) states that this polynomial has nonnegative…

In a previous paper (arXiv:math-ph/0604055) we introduced a very simple PT-symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonian with real spectrum and derived a closed formula for the metric operator relating the problem to a Hermitian one. In this note we…

We lay out an approach to derive the closed string dual to the simplest possible gauge theory, a single hermitian matrix integral, in the conventional 't Hooft large $N$ limit. In this first installment of three papers, we propose and…

Dual quaternion matrices have important applications in multi-agent formation control. In this paper, we first address the concept of spectral norm of dual quaternion matrices. Then, we introduce a von Neumann type trace inequality and a…

Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$ be a rotation and reflection free self-similar set satisfying the strong separation condition, with dimension $\dim K = s > 1$. Intersecting $K$ with translates of a fixed line, one can study the $(s -…

The Haar functional on the quantum $SU(2)$ group is the analogue of invariant integration on the group $SU(2)$. If restricted to a subalgebra generated by a self-adjoint element the Haar functional can be expressed as an integral with a…

This paper considers the empirical spectral measure of a power of a random matrix drawn uniformly from one of the compact classical matrix groups. We give sharp bounds on the $L_p$-Wasserstein distances between this empirical measure and…

We extend the existence of ghost measures beyond nonnegative primitive regular sequences to a large class of nonnegative real-valued regular sequences. In the general case, where the ghost measure is not unique, we show that they can be…
