For warped products with harmonic curvature, nonconstant warping functions $\phi$, and compact two-dimensional bases $(M,h)$, we establish a dichotomy: either the Gaussian curvature $K$ of the metric $g=\phi^{-2}h$ is constant and negative,…

We derive a sharp inequality relating the second and fourth elementary symmetric functions of the eigenvalues of a trace-free matrix and give two applications. First, we give a new proof of the classification of conformally flat…

This is a survey article of geometric properties of noncommutative symmetric spaces of measurable operators $E(\mathcal{M},\tau)$, where $\mathcal{M}$ is a semifinite von Neumann algebra with a faithful, normal, semifinite trace $\tau$, and…

The performance of a binary classifier is described by a confusion matrix with four entries: the number of true positives (TP), true negatives (TN), false positives (FP), and false negatives (FN). The Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC),…

Over the past few years, trace regression models have received considerable attention in the context of matrix completion, quantum state tomography, and compressed sensing. Estimation of the underlying matrix from regularization-based…

In the present paper, some sufficient and necessary conditions for two frames $\Phi=(\varphi_n)_n$ and $\Psi=(\psi_n)_n$ under which they are approximately or generalized dual frames are determined depending on the properties of their…

In this paper we show that for a non-negative operator monotone function $f$ on $[0, \infty)$ such that $f(0)= 0$ and for any positive semidefinite matrices $A$ and $B$, $$ Tr((A-B)(f(A)-f(B))) \le Tr(|A-B|f(|A-B|)). $$ When the function…

We give necessary and sufficient criteria for a distribution to be smooth or uniformly H\"{o}lder continuous in terms of approximation sequences by smooth functions; in particular, in terms of those arising as regularizations…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be two factor von Neumann algebras and $\eta$ be a non-zero complex number. A nonlinear bijective map $\phi:\mathcal A\rightarrow\mathcal B$ has been demonstrated to satisfy…

We characterize general pseudo-harmonic morphisms from a Riemannian manifold to a Hermitian manifold as pseudo horizontally weakly conformal maps with an additional property. We study to what extent we can (locally) describe these…

We investigate the geometric behavior of $\tau(E)$ for bounded finite-perimeter sets $E \subset \mathbb R^n$, where $\tau(E)$ is the trace constant introduced by Figalli--Maggi--Pratelli [Invent. Math. 2010]. This quantity is a key…

We introduce the notion of regular operator mappings of several variables generalising the notion of spectral function. This setting is convenient for studying maps more general than what can be obtained from the functional calculus, and it…

Using the natural duality between linear functionals on tensor products of C*-algebras with the trace class operators on a Hilbert space H and linear maps of the C*-algebra into B(H), we give two characterizations of separability, one…

We study the beta functions for four-dimensional conformal gravity using two different parametrizations of metric fluctuation, linear split and exponential parametrization. We find that after imposing the traceless conditions, the beta…

We consider certain functional identities on the matrix algebra $M_n$ that are defined similarly as the trace identities, except that the "coefficients" are arbitrary polynomials, not necessarily those expressible by the traces. The main…

Polyhedra and spectrahedra over the real numbers, or more generally their images under linear maps, are respectively the feasible sets of linear and semidefinite programming, and form the family of semidefinite-representable sets. This…

We derive transformation rules for test ideals and $F$-singularities under an arbitrary finite surjective morphism $\pi : Y \to X$ of normal varieties in prime characteristic $p > 0$. The main technique is to relate homomorphisms $F_{*}…

Let $A$ be a positive semidefinite $m\times m$ block matrix with each block $n$-square, then the following determinantal inequality for partial traces holds \[ (\mathrm{tr} A)^{mn} - \det(\mathrm{tr}_2 A)^n \ge \bigl| \det A -…

Originating from spectral graph theory, cospectrality is a powerful generalization of exchange symmetry and can be applied to all real-valued symmetric matrices. Two vertices of an undirected graph with real edge weights are cospectral iff…

In this note we collect several characterizations of unitary representations $(\pi, \mathcal{H})$ of a finite dimensional Lie group $G$ which are trace class, i.e., for each compactly supported smooth function $f$ on $G$, the operator…
