In this work we extend a maximum theorem proposed by Morgan and Scalzo. We also show some results of minimax inequalities which are equivalent to the famous Ky Fan minimax inequality. Additionally, we prove that the existence result of Nash…

Horn's problem was the following: given two Hermitian matrices with known spectra, what might be the eigenvalue spectrum of the sum? This linear algebra problem is exactly of the sort to be approached with the methods of modern Hamiltonian…

There are two themes in the present paper. The first one is spelled out in the title, and is inspired by an attempt to find an analogue of Hersch-Yang-Yau estimate for $lambda_1$ of surfaces in symplectic category. In particular we prove…

As applications of Kadison's Pythageorean and carpenter's theorems, the Schur-Horn theorem, and Thompson's theorem, we obtain an extension of Thompsons theorem to compact operators and use these ideas to give a characterization of diagonals…

We characterize the set of diagonals of the unitary orbit of a self-adjoint operator with three points in the spectrum. Our result gives a Schur-Horn theorem for operators with three point spectrum analogous to Kadison's result for…

We prove an Eichler-type criterion for symplectic lattices which determines in a simple way when two primitive vectors are equivalent under a canonical congruence subgroup of the symplectic group. This is supplemented by another, related…

Symplectic and Finsler geometry are used to settle a conjecture of Sch\"affer stating that the girth of a normed space--the infimum of the lengths of all closed, rectifiable, centrally symmetric curves on its unit sphere--equals the girth…

In this paper we deduce a graded version of Quillen--Suslin's Local-Global Principle for the traditional classical groups, viz. general linear, symplectic and orthogonal groups and establish its equivalence of the normality property of the…

The Symplectic Pontryagin method was introduced in a previous paper. This work shows that this method is applicable under less restrictive assumptions. Existence of solutions to the Symplectic Pontryagin scheme are shown to exist without…

For any nonempty, compact and fiberwise convex set $K$ in $T^*\mathbb{R}^n$, we prove an isomorphism between symplectic homology of $K$ and a certain relative homology of loop spaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also prove a formula which computes…

We continue studying a parabolic flow of almost K\"{a}hler structures introduced by Streets and Tian which naturally extends K\"{a}hler-Ricci flow onto symplectic manifolds. In the system of primarily the symplectic form, almost complex…

Kullback-Leibler relative-entropy, in cases involving distributions resulting from relative-entropy minimization, has a celebrated property reminiscent of squared Euclidean distance: it satisfies an analogue of the Pythagoras' theorem. And…

We introduce a de Rham model for stratified spaces arising from symplectic reduction. It turns out that the reduced symplectic form and its powers give rise to well-defined cohomology classes, even on a singular symplectic quotient.

We prove the little Grothendieck theorem for any 2-convex noncommutative symmetric space. Let $\M$ be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a normal faithful semifinite trace $\t$, and let $E$ be an r.i. space on $(0, \8)$. Let $E(\M)$ be the…

The theory of Schur functors provides a powerful and elegant approach to the representation theory of GL_n - at least to the so-called polynomial representations - especially to questions about how the theory varies with n. We develop…

A theorem of Thompson provides a non-self-adjoint variant of the classical Schur-Horn theorem by characterizing the possible diagonal values of a matrix with given singular values. We prove an analogue of Thompson's theorem for II_1…

Broad arguments indicate that quantum gravity should have a minimal length scale. In this essay we construct a minimum length model by generalizing the time-position and energy-momentum operators while keeping much of the structure of…

We define a notion of a symplectic structure on stratified spaces, and demonstrate that given a symplectic structure on a stratified space $X$ with integral cohomology class, $X$ can be symplectically embedded in some complex projective…

We study the properties of stationary G-chains in terms of their generating functions. In particular, we prove an analogue of the Szeg\H{o} limit theorem for symplectic eigenvalues, derive an expression for the entropy rate of stationary…

We prove that, for any theory defined over a space-time with boundary, the symplectic form derived in the covariant phase space is equivalent to the one derived from the canonical formalism.
