Given $n$ integer, let $X$ be either the set of hermitian or real $n\times n$ matrices of rank at least $n-1$. If $n$ is even, we give a sharp estimate on the maximal dimension of a real vector subspace of $X\cup\{0\}$. The rusults are…

A group of matrices $G$ with entries in a number field $K$ is defined to be numerical if $G$ has a finite index subgroup of matrices whose entries are algebraic integers. It is shown that an irreducible or completely reducible subgroup of…
A new C*-enlargement of a C*-algebra $A$ nested between the local multiplier algebra $M_{\text{loc}}(A)$ of $A$ and its injective envelope $I(A)$ is introduced. Various aspects of this maximal C*-algebra of quotients, $Q_{\text{max}}(A)$,…

Given an array A containing arbitrary (positive and negative) numbers, we consider the problem of supporting range maximum-sum segment queries on A: i.e., given an arbitrary range [i,j], return the subrange [i' ,j' ] \subseteq [i,j] such…
We consider higher-rank versions of the standard numerical range for matrices. A central motivation for this investigation comes from quantum error correction. We develop the basic structure theory for the higher-rank numerical ranges, and…
