The Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture for smooth complex varieties states that algebraic and topological K-theory with finite coefficients become isomorphic in high degrees. We define the "Lichtenbaum-Quillen dimension" of a variety in terms…

Let $p>3$ be a prime, and let $(\frac{\cdot}p)$ be the Legendre symbol. Let $A_p(x)$ denote the matrix $[x+a_{ij}]_{1\leqslant i,j\leqslant (p-1)/2}$, where $$ a_{ij}=\begin{cases} (\frac{j}{p}) &\text{if} \ i=1, \$\frac{i+j}{p}) &\text{if}…

We consider the question of the boundedness of matrix products $A_{n}B_{n}\cdots A_{1}B_{1}$ with factors from two sets of matrices, $A_{i}\in\mathscr{A}$ and $B_{i}\in\mathscr{B}$, due to an appropriate choice of matrices $\{B_{i}\}$. It…

One studies certain degenerations of the generic square matrix over a field $k$ along with its main related structures, such as the determinant of the matrix, the ideal generated by its partial derivatives, the polar map defined by these…

We give some necessary conditions for maximality of $0/1$-determinant. Let ${\bf M}$ be a nondegenerate $0/1$-matrix of order $n$. Denote by $\bf A$ the matrix of order $n+1$ which appears from ${\bf M}$ after adding the $(n+1)$th row…

We show that every point in a uniformly $2$-nondegenerate CR hypersurface is canonically associated with a model $2$-nondegenerate structure. The $2$-nondegenerate models are basic CR invariants playing the same fundamental role as quadrics…

We decompose $p$ - integrable functions on the boundary of a simply connected Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb C$ into the sum of the boundary values of two, uniquely determined holomorphic functions, where one is holomorphic in…

The problem of expressing a specific polynomial as the determinant of a square matrix of affine-linear forms arises from algebraic geometry, optimisation, complexity theory, and scientific computing. Motivated by recent developments in this…

We explore the finite-dimensional part of the non-commutative Choquet boundary of an operator algebra. In other words, we seek finite-dimensional boundary representations. Such representations may fail to exist even when the underlying…

We derive an identity for the determinant of the sum of two $n\times n$ matrices, $A$ and $B$, whose entries are defined via contour integrals. Specifically, we consider $A(i,j)=\frac{1}{2\pi\mathrm{i}}\oint_0…

The pseudodeterminant $\textrm{pdet}(M)$ of a square matrix is the last nonzero coefficient in its characteristic polynomial; for a nonsingular matrix, this is just the determinant. If $\partial$ is a symmetric or skew-symmetric matrix then…

We consider the following nonlinear Choquard equation with Dirichlet boundary condition $$-\Delta u =\left(\int_{\Omega}\frac{|u|^{2_{\mu}^{\ast}}}{|x-y|^{\mu}}dy\right)|u|^{2_{\mu}^{\ast}-2}u+\lambda…

Let $N$ be a geodesically convex subset in a convex co-compact hyperbolic manifold $M$ with incompressible boundary. We assume that each boundary component of $N$ is either a boundary component of $\partial_\infty M$, or a smooth, locally…

In this paper we evaluate several determinants involving quadratic residues modulo primes. For example, for any prime $p>3$ with $p\equiv3\pmod4$ and $a,b\in\mathbb Z$ with $p\nmid ab$, we prove that $$\det\left[ 1+\tan\pi\frac{aj^2+bk^2}p…

In the space of square matrices, we characterize row-generated subspaces, on which the determinant is an irreducible polynomial. As a corollary, we characterize square systems of polynomial equations with indeterminate coefficients, whose…

Let $k$ be an arbitrary field and $d$ a positive integer. For each degenerate symmetric or antisymmetric bilinear form $M$ on $k^{d}$ we determine the structure of the Lie algebra of matrices that preserve $M$, and of the Lie algebra of…

The problem of decomposition of bilinear forms which satisfy a certain condition has been studied by many authors by example in \cite{H08}: Let $H$ and $K$ be Hilbert spaces and let $A,C \in B(H),B,D\in B(K)$. Assume that $u:H\times Karrow…

In this paper we give the absolutely new proof of a conjecture of R.F.Scott(1881) on the permanent of a Cauchy matrix $\ls \frac{1}{x_i-y_j} \rs_{1 \leqslant i,j \leqslant n},$ where $x_1, ..., x_n$ and $y_1, ..., y_n$ are the distinct…

For any three $\,n\times n\,$ matrices $\,A,B,X\,$ over a commutative ring $\,S$, we prove that $\,{\rm det}\,(A+B-AXB)={\rm det}\,(A+B-BXA) \in S$. This apparently new formula may be regarded as a ``ternary generalization'' of Sylvester's…

We classify operator systems $S\subseteq \mathcal B(H)$ that act on finite dimensional Hilbert spaces by making use of the noncommutative Choquet boundary. S is said to be {\em reduced} when its boundary ideal is 0. In the category of…
