A vector composition of a vector $\mathbf{\ell}$ is a matrix $\mathbf{A}$ whose rows sum to $\mathbf{\ell}$. We define a weighted vector composition as a vector composition in which the column values of $\mathbf{A}$ may appear in different…
We consider the convex set of ( unital ) positive ( completely ) maps from a $C^*$ algebra $\cla$ to a von-Neumann sub-algebra $\clm$ of $\clb(\clh)$, the algebra of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\clh$ and study its extreme…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a separable complex Hilbert space. A conjugate-linear map $C:\mathcal{H}\to \mathcal{H}$ is called a conjugation if it is an involutive isometry. In this paper, we focus on the following interpolation problems: Let…
In this short note, we find an equivalent combinatorial condition only involving finite sums under which a centered Gaussian random vector with multinomial covariance matrix satisfies the Gaussian product inequality (GPI) conjecture. These…
The conjugacy problem for a finitely generated group $G$ is the two-variable problem of deciding for an arbitrary pair $(u,v)$ of elements of $G$, whether or not $u$ is conjugate to $v$ in $G$. We construct examples of finitely generated,…
Let $B(H)$ be the algebra of bounded linear operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$. We study the commutant of $B(H)$ in its ultrapower. We characterize the class of non-principal ultrafilters for which this…
We show that the exponential map of the Bochner connection on the restricted holomorphic tangent bundle of a complex manifold admitting the positive-definite Bergman metric coincides with the inverse of Bergman's representative map. We also…
von Neumann algebras have been playing an increasingly important role in the context of gauge theories and gravity. The crossed product presents a natural method for implementing constraints through the commutation theorem, rendering it a…
The operator space generated by peripheral eigenvectors of a unital normal completely positive map $P$ on a von Neumann algebra has a C*-algebra structure. This C*-algebra is known as the \textit{peripheral Poisson boundary} of $P$. For a…
This paper establishes a necessary and sufficient condition for the coincidence of non-commutative $\log$-algebras constructed from different exact normal semifinite traces. Consequently, we provide a criterion for the isomorphism of…
This paper is devoted to derivations on the algebra $S_0(M, \tau)$ of all $\tau$-compact operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra $M$ and a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau.$ The main result asserts that every…
Given two unital C*-algebras $A$ and $B$, we study, when it exists, the universal unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{U}(A,B)$ generated by the coefficients of a unital $*$-homomorphism $\rho\,:\, A\rightarrow B\otimes\mathcal{U}(A,B)$. When $B$…
We construct explicit examples of half-sided modular inclusions ${\mathcal N}\subset{\mathcal M}$ of von Neumann algebras with trivial relative commutants. After stating a general criterion for triviality of the relative commutant in terms…
We define the notion of central orderings for a general commutative ring $A$ which generalizes the notion of central points of irreducible real algebraic varieties. We study a central and a precentral loci which both live in the real…
By combining the findings of two recent, seminal papers by Nualart, Peccati and Tudor, we get that the convergence in law of any sequence of vector-valued multiple integrals $F_n$ towards a centered Gaussian random vector $N$, with given…
We derive the distribution of the ratio of a non-central mean matrix and a sample covariance matrix. This aligns with the confluent term ${}_1F_1$ in the non-central uni-variate Student's $t$. Some extensions of matrix-variate distributions…
We extend some inequalities for normal matrices and positive linear maps related to the Russo-Dye theorem. The results cover the case of some positive linear maps on a von Neumann algebra mapping any nonzero operator to an unbounded…
Conjugation spaces are equipped with an involution such that the fixed points have the same mod 2 cohomology (as a graded vector space, a ring, and even an unstable algebra) but with all degrees divided by 2, generalizing the classical…
This article is concerned with conjugacy problems arising in homeomorphisms group, Hom($F$), of unbounded subsets $F$ of normed vector spaces $E$. Given two homeomorphisms $f$ and $g$ in Hom($F$), it is shown how the existence of a…
We consider the problem of estimating a high-dimensional covariance matrix from a small number of observations when covariates on pairs of variables are available and the variables can have spatial structure. This is motivated by the…
