We show that any smooth permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ is characterized by the set ${\mathbf{C}}(\sigma)$ of transpositions and $3$-cycles in the Bruhat interval $(S_n)_{\leq\sigma}$, and that $\sigma$ is the product (in a certain order) of…

An $n \times n$ matrix $A$ with real entries is said to be Schur stable if all the eigenvalues of $A$ are inside the open unit disc. We investigate the structure of linear maps on $M_n(\mathbb{R})$ that preserve the collection $\mathcal{S}$…

Persistent homology is constrained to purely topological persistence while multiscale graphs account only for geometric information. This work introduces persistent spectral theory to create a unified low-dimensional multiscale paradigm for…

We study some analytic properties of distance decreasing self-maps onto the complement of a smooth curve $\Sigma$ in $S^n$. For $n>4$ and $n\equiv 0 \mod 4$, let $\Sigma$ be an embedded circle in $S^n$ and let $g$ be a complete Riemannian…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and $\Gamma$ be a group of automorphisms of $W$ such that $\gamma(S)=S$ for all $\gamma \in \Gamma$. Then it is known that the group of fixed points $W^\Gamma$ is again a Coxeter group with a canonically…

Complement-reducible graphs (or cographs) are the graphs formed from the single-vertex graph by the operations of complement and disjoint union. By combining the Johnson-Newman theorem on generalized cospectrality with the standard tools in…

Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group on $n$ elements, and $\Sigma\subseteq S_{n}$ a symmetric subset of permutations. Aldous' spectral gap conjecture, proved by Caputo, Liggett and Richthammer [arXiv:0906.1238], states that if $\Sigma$ is a…

Let $G$ be a simply connected exponential solvable Lie group, $H$ a closed connected subgroup, and let $\tau$ be a representation of $G$ induced from a unitary character $\chi_f$ of $H$. The spectrum of $\tau$ corresponds via the orbit…

Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra acting on a Hilbert space $H$, $\sigma:A\to B(H)$ be a linear mapping and $d:A\to B(H)$ be a $\sigma$-derivation. Generalizing the celebrated theorem of Sakai, we prove that if $\sigma$ is a continuous $*$-mapping…

Let $(W, S)$ be a Coxeter system equipped with a fixed automorphism $\ast$ of order $\leq 2$ which preserves $S$. Lusztig (and with Vogan in some special cases) have shown that the space spanned by set of "twisted" involutions was naturally…

Let $\gamma$ be an automorphism of a polarized complex projective manifold $(M,L)$. Then $\gamma$ induces an automorphism $\gamma_k$ of the space of global holomorphic sections of the $k$-th tensor power of $L$, for every $k=1,2,...$; for…

This paper concerns the question whether the cone spectral radius of a continuous compact order-preserving homogenous map on a closed cone in Banach space depends continuously on the map. Using the fixed point index we show that if there…

In this thesis the Cauchy problem and in particular the question of singularity formation for co--rotational wave maps from 3+1 Minkowski space to the three--sphere $S^3$ is studied. Numerics indicate that self--similar solutions of this…

We prove that the joint spectral radius and generalized spectral radius are equal for any bounded, equicontinuous family of order-preserving, homogeneous maps on a polyhedral cone. We also consider conditions which guarantee that the…

Let $H$ be a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, $\dim H \ge 2$. We prove that every continuous coexistency preserving map on the effect algebra $E(H)$ is either a standard automorphism of $E(H)$, or a standard automorphism of $E(H)$ composed…

Denote by $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Let $f: M_n \rightarrow [0,\infty)$ be a continuous map such that $f(\mu UAU^*)= f(A)$ for any complex unit $\mu$, $A \in M_n$ and unitary $U \in M_n$, $f(X)=0$ if and only if $X=0$…

We consider the skew product $F: (x,u) \mapsto (f(x), u + \tau(x))$, where the base map $f : \mathbb{T}^{1} \to \mathbb{T}^{1}$ is piecewise $\mathcal{C}^{2}$, covering and uniformly expanding, and the fibre map $\tau : \mathbb{T}^{1} \to…

The limiting behavior of the eigenvalues of the Toeplitz matrices $T_{n}[\sigma]=(\hat{\sigma}(i-j))$, where $0\leq i,j \leq n$, as $n \to \infty$, is investigated in the case of complex valued functions $\sigma$ defined on the unit circle…

A mixed graph $G$ is a graph obtained from a simple undirected graph by orientating a subset of edges. $G$ is self-converse if it is isomorphic to the graph obtained from $G$ by reversing each directed edge. For two mixed graphs $G$ and $H$…

We investigate how spectral properties of a measure preserving system $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu,T)$ are reflected in the multiple ergodic averages arising from that system. For certain sequences $a:\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N}$ we provide natural…
