In this article, we give a representation of bounded complex linear operators which preserve idempotent elements on the Fourier algebra of a locally compact group. When such an operator is moreover positive or contractive, we show that the…

We make a connection between the subgroup membership and identity problems for matrix groups and extended finite automata. We provide an alternative proof for the decidability of the subgroup membership problem for $ 2 \times 2 $ integer…

In this article we consider means of positive operators on a Hilbert space. We extend the theory of matrix power means to arbitrary operator means in the sense of Kubo-Ando. The basis of the extension is relying on ideas coming from…

Given a stationary continuous-time process $f(t)$, the Hilbert-Schmidt operator $A_{\tau}$ can be defined for every finite $\tau$\cite{Vautard1989SingularSA}. Let $\lambda_{\tau,i}$ be the eigenvalues of $A_{\tau}$ with descending order. In…

We investigate linear maps between matrix algebras that remain positive under tensor powers, i.e., under tensoring with $n$ copies of themselves. Completely positive and completely co-positive maps are trivial examples of this kind. We show…

We initiate a theory of locally eventually positive operator semigroups on Banach lattices. Intuitively this means: given a positive initial datum, the solution of the corresponding Cauchy problem becomes (and stays) positive in a part of…

We study a hypercyclicity property of linear dynamical systems: a bounded linear operator T acting on a separable infinite-dimensional Banach space X is said to be hypercyclic if there exists a vector x in X such that {T^{n}x : n>0} is…

In this paper, we present a hybrid sensorless observer for Permanent Magnets Synchronous Machines, with no a priori knowledge of the mechanical dynamics and without the typical assumption of constant or slowly-varying speed. Instead, we…

We present tracial analogs of the classical results of Curto and Fialkow on moment matrices. A sequence of real numbers indexed by words in non-commuting variables with values invariant under cyclic permutations of the indexes, is called a…

In this paper we prove a Hille-Yosida type theorem for relatively uniformly continuous positive semigroups on vector lattices. We introduce the notions of relatively uniformly continuous, differentiable, and integrable functions on…

For an increasing sequence $(T_n)$ of one-parameter semigroups of sub Markovian kernel operators over a Polish space, we study the limit semigroup and prove sufficient conditions for it to be strongly Feller. In particular, we show that the…

Under suitable conditions on a family $(I(t))_{t\ge 0}$ of Lipschitz mappings on a complete metric space, we show that up to a subsequence the strong limit $S(t):=\lim_{n\to\infty}(I(t 2^{-n}))^{2^n}$ exists for all dyadic time points $t$,…

We consider a generalization of the Ruelle theorem for the case of continuous time problems. We present a result which we believe is important for future use in problems in Mathematical Physics related to $C^*$-Algebras We consider a finite…

Results on the problem of stabilizing a nonlinear continuous-time system by a finite number of control or measurement values are presented. The basic tool is a discontinuous version of the so-called semi-global backstepping lemma. We derive…

We specify the structure of completely positive operators and quantum Markov semigroup generators that are symmetric with respect to a family of inner products, also providing new information on the order strucure an extreme points in some…

We discuss ways in which momentum operators can be introduced on an oriented metric graph. A necessary condition appears to the balanced property, or a matching between the numbers of incoming and outgoing edges; we show that a graph…

If matrices almost satisfying a group relation are close to matrices exactly satisfying the relation, then we say that a group is matricially stable. Here "almost" and "close" are in terms of the Hilbert-Schmidt norm. Using tracial 2-norm…

For a class of semilinear elliptic equations, we establish criteria that guarantee that the linearized operator associated with a solution satisfies certain spectral assumptions that are widely used in the analysis of the stability of…

Let $H$ be a positive semi-definite matrix partitioned in $\beta\times \beta$ Hermitian blocks, $H=[A_{s,t}]$, $1\le s,t,\le \beta$. Then, for all symmetric norms, {equation*} \| H \| \le \| \sum_{s=1}^{\beta} A_{s,s} \|. {equation*} The…

This paper concerns matrix decompositions in which the factors are restricted to lie in a closed subvariety of a matrix group. Such decompositions are of relevance in control theory: given a target matrix in the group, can it be decomposed…
