For a surjective self-morphism on a projective variety defined over a number field, we study the preimages question, which asks if the set of rational points on the iterated preimages of an invariant closed subscheme eventually stabilize.…

We present a new structure called the "conservative matrix field", initially developed to elucidate and provide insight into the methodologies employed by Ap\'ery's in his proof of the irrationality of the Riemann zeta function at 3. This…

This paper proves two results on the field of rationality $\Q(\pi)$ for an automorphic representation $\pi$, which is the subfield of $\C$ fixed under the subgroup of $\Aut(\C)$ stabilizing the isomorphism class of the finite part of $\pi$.…

In this paper we describe graded automorphisms and antiautomorphisms of finite order on matrix algebras endowed with a group gradings by a finite abelian group over an arbitrary algebraically closed field of charcteristic different from 2.

We consider a symmetric matrix, the entries of which depend linearly on some parameters. The domains of the parameters are compact real intervals. We investigate the problem of checking whether for each (or some) setting of the parameters,…

Let $I(X,K)$ be the incidence algebra of a finite connected poset $X$ over a field $K$ and $D(X,K)$ its subalgebra consisting of diagonal elements. We describe the bijective linear maps $\varphi:I(X,K)\to I(X,K)$ that strongly preserve the…

We produce 2-representations of the positive part of affine quantum enveloping algebras on their finite-dimensional counterparts in type $A_n$. These 2-representations naturally extend the right-multiplication 2-representation of…

Let $V$ be the set of $n\times n$ complex or real general matrices, Hermitian matrices, symmetric matrices, positive definite (resp. semi-definite) matrices, diagonal matrices, or upper triangular matrices. Fix $k\in \mathbb{Z}\setminus…

We present a characterization for the continuous, isotropic and positive definite kernels on a product of spheres along the lines of a classical result of I. J. Schoenberg on positive definiteness on a single sphere. We also discuss a few…

We characterize when a size-2 positive semidefinite (psd) factorization of a positive matrix of rank 3 and psd rank 2 is unique. The characterization is obtained using tools from rigidity theory. In the first step, we define…

We investigate compressibility of the dimension of positive semidefinite matrices while approximately preserving their pairwise inner products. This can either be regarded as compression of positive semidefinite factorizations of…

We consider the polynomial ring in finitely many variables over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, and initiate the systematic study of ideals preserved by the action of the general linear group by changes of…

In this work we study positivity preservers $T:\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]\to\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ with constant coefficients and define their generators $A$ if they exist, i.e., $\exp(A) = T$. We use the theory of regular Fr\'echet Lie…

We study linear preserver problems on the linear space of $n\times n$ Toeplitz matrices over the real field or the complex field. In particular, characterizations are given for linear preservers of rank one matrices and linear preservers of…

Let $p_1<p_2<\cdots<p_n$ be positive real numbers. It is shown that the matrix whose $i,j$ entry is $(p_i+p_j)^{p_i+p_j}$ is infinitely divisible, nonsingular and totally positive.

Entrywise powers of symmetric matrices preserving positivity, monotonicity or convexity with respect to the Loewner ordering arise in various applications, and have received much attention recently in the literature. Following FitzGerald…

In this paper we give a matrix version of Handelman's Positivstellensatz [1], representing polynomial matrices which are positive definite on convex, compact polyhedra. Moreover, we propose also a procedure to find such a representation. As…

For any closed $K\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$, in [P.\ J.\ di\,Dio, K.\ Schm\"udgen: $K$-Positivity Preserver and their Generators, SIAM J.\ Appl.\ Algebra Geom.\ 9 (2025), 794--824] all $K$-positivity preserver have been characterized, i.e., all…

A multidimensional nonnegative matrix is called polystochastic if the sum of its entries over each line is equal to $1$. The permanent of a multidimensional matrix is the sum of products of entries over all diagonals. We prove that if $d$…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field and $f : \mathfrak{S}_n \rightarrow \mathbb{F} \setminus \{0\}$ be an arbitrary map. The Schur matrix functional associated to $f$ is defined as $M \in \text{M}_n(\mathbb{F}) \mapsto…
