Motivated by a work of Fu-So-Song, we associate a symmetric matrix $A$ to a plane vector sequence $v$ and give a formula to find the signature of $A$ in terms of the sequence $v$. When $A$ is nonsingular, we interpret the relation between…

It is shown how nonlinear versions of quantum mechanics can be refolmulated in terms of a (linear) C*-algebraic theory. Then also their symmetries are described as automorphisms of the correspondong C*-algebra. The requirement of…

A realization of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a map $v\colon V\to\Bbb R^d$ that assigns to each vertex a point in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. We study graph realizations from the perspective of representation theory (expressing certain…

We introduce various notions of quantum symmetry in a directed or undirected multigraph with no isolated vertex and explore relations among them. If the multigraph is single edged (that is, a simple graph where loops are allowed), all our…

Assume that there is a free group action of automorphisms on a bipartite graph. If there is a perfect matching on the factor graph, then obviously there is a perfect matching on the graph. Surprisingly, the reversed is also true for…

Various versions of the definition of nonclassical symmetries existing in the literature are analyzed. Comparing properties of Lie and nonclassical symmetries leads to the conclusion that in fact a nonclassical symmetry is not a symmetry in…

The purpose of the article is to generalize the concept of approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality, in the semi-Hilbertian structure. Given a positive operator $ A $ on a Hilbert space $ \mathbb{H}, $ we define $ (\epsilon,A)- $approximate…

We describe symmetry structure of a general singular theory (theory with constraints in the Hamiltonian formulation), and, in particular, we relate the structure of gauge transformations with the constraint structure. We show that any…

Symmetries are defined in histories-based theories paying special attention to the class of history theories admitting quasitemporal structure (a generalization of the concept of `temporal sequences' of `events' using partial semigroups)…

Variables adapted to the quantum dynamics of spherically symmetric models are introduced, which further simplify the spherically symmetric volume operator and allow an explicit computation of all matrix elements of the Euclidean and…

A toric hyperplane is the preimage of a point $x \in S^1$ of a continuous surjective group homomorphism $\theta: \mathbb{T}^n \to S^1$. A finite hyperplane arrangement is a finite collection of such hyperplanes. In this paper, we study the…

What does it mean to quantize a symplectic map $\chi$? In deformation quantization, it means to construct an automorphism of the $*$ algebra associated to $\chi$. In quantum chaos it means to construct unitary operators $U_{\chi}$ such that…

We investigate geometric properties of homogeneous parabolic geometries with generalized symmetries. We show that they can be reduced to a simpler geometric structures and interpret them explicitly. For specific types of parabolic…

We consider symmetric powers of a graph. In particular, we show that the spectra of the symmetric square of strongly regular graphs with the same parameters are equal. We also provide some bounds on the spectra of the symmetric squares of…
