First we show that tight nonorthogonal fusion frames a relatively easy to com by. In order to do this we need to establish a classification of how to to wire a self adjoint operator as a product of (nonorthogonal) projection operators. We…

We describe the variety of Jordan superalgebras of dimension $4$ whose even part is a Jordan algebra of dimension $1$ or $3$. We prove that the variety is the union of Zariski closures of the orbits of $11$ and $21$ rigid superalgebras,…

In 2017, Ehrenborg, Govindaiah, Park, and Readdy defined the van der Waerden complex ${\tt vdW}(n,k)$ to be the simplicial complex whose facets correspond to all the arithmetic sequences on the set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ of a fixed length $k$. To…

For $n\geq 3$, let $\Omega_n$ be the set of line segments between the vertices of a convex $n$-gon. For $j\geq 2$, a $j$-crossing is a set of $j$ line segments pairwise intersecting in the relative interior of the $n$-gon. We identify…

An n-variate Vandermonde polynomial is the determinant of the n x n matrix where the ith column is the vector (1, x_i, x_i^2, ...., x_i^{n-1})^T. Vandermonde polynomials play a crucial role in the theory of alternating polynomials and occur…

An orthogonality space is a set together with a symmetric and irreflexive binary relation. Any linear space equipped with a reflexive and anisotropic inner product provides an example: the set of one-dimensional subspaces together with the…

Let A be an n by d matrix having full rank n. An orthogonal dual A^{\perp} of A is a (d-n) by d matrix of rank (d-n) such that every row of A^{\perp} is orthogonal (under the usual dot product) to every row of A. We define the orthogonal…

A phased matroid is a matroid with additional structure which plays the same role for complex vector arrangements that oriented matroids play for real vector arrangements. The realization space of an oriented (resp., phased) matroid is the…

The lattice of partitions of a set and its d-divisible generalization have been much studied for their combinatorial, topological, and representation-theoretic properties. An ordered set partition is a set partition where the subsets are…

Let $n,n'$ be positive integers and let $V$ be an $(n+n')$-dimensional vector space over a finite field $\mathbb{F}$ equipped with a non-degenerate alternating, hermitian or quadratic form. We estimate the proportion of pairs $(U, U')$,…

For a finite partially ordered set we calculate the dimension of the variety of its subspace representations having fixed dimension vector. The dimension is given in terms of the Euler quadratic form associated with a partially ordered set,…

We give a canonical form for a complex matrix, whose square is normal, under transformations of unitary similarity as well as a canonical form for a real matrix, whose square is normal, under transformations of orthogonal similarity.

Three natural classes of orthonormal frames, namely Frenet-Serret, Fermi-Walker and parallel transported frames, exist along any timelike world line in spacetime. Their relationships are investigated for timelike circular orbits in…

Working over an algebraically closed base field $k$ of characteristic 2, the ring of invariants $R^G$ is studied, where $G$ is the orthogonal group O(n) or the special orthogonal group SO(n), acting naturally on the coordinate ring $R$ of…

Given a smooth projective variety V of dimension n, one may say that V has motivic dimension less than d+1 if the cohomology of V comes from varieties of dimensions less than d+1 in some geometric way. In this paper, we show that a smooth…

This paper revisits the notion of classical orthogonal polynomials from a broader functional-analytic point of view. It is intended neither as a survey of known results nor as a review of the literature, but rather as a conceptual…

In this work, we show that a complex equiangular tight frame (ETF) composed by $N$ vectors in dimension $d$ exists if and only if a certain bistochastic matrix, univocally determined by $N$ and $d$, belongs to a special class of…

Let $\mathfrak{R}$ be a weakly noetherian variety of unitary associative algebras (over a field $K$ of characteristic 0), i.e., every finitely generated algebra from $\mathfrak{R}$ satisfies the ascending chain condition for two-sided…

In this paper we present a way to define a set of orthocenters for a triangle in the n-dimensional space R^{n} and we will see some analogies of these orthocenters with the classic orthocenter of a triangle in the Euclidean plane.

We study some properties of quadratic forms with values in a field whose underlying vector spaces are endowed with the structure of right vector spaces over a division ring extension of that field. Some generalized notions of isotropy,…
