These days it is common for young operator algebraists to know a lot about C*-algebras, or a lot about von Neumann algebras -- but not both. Though a natural consequence of the breadth and depth of each subject, this is unfortunate as the…
We investigate the space of $U(N)$ gauge-invariant operators in coupled matrix-vector systems at finite $N$, extending previous work on single matrix models. By using the Molien-Weyl formula, we compute the partition function and identify…
We define a categorical framework in which we build a systematic construction that provides generic invariants for C*-algebras. The benefit is significant as we show that any invariant arising this way automatically enjoys nice properties…
We apply to operator algebra theory a monotone selection principle which apparently escaped attention (of operator algebra theorists) so far. This principle relates to the basic order theoretic characterisation of von Neumann algebras given…
The existence of Voiculescu's subordination functions in the context of non-tracial operator-valued C*-probability spaces has been established using analytic function theory methods. We use a matrix construction to show that the…
This is a cursory overview of applications of concepts from random matrix theory (RMT) to quantum electronics and classical & quantum optics. The emphasis is on phenomena, predicted or explained by RMT, that have actually been observed in…
C*-algebras are widely used in mathematical physics to represent the observables of physical systems, and are sometimes taken as the starting point for rigorous formulations of quantum mechanics and classical statistical mechanics.…
The space of positive operator-valued measures on the Borel sets of a compact (or even locally compact) Hausdorff space with values in the algebra of linear operators acting on a d-dimensional Hilbert space is studied from the perspectives…
The properties of the spectrum of the overlap Dirac operator and their relation to random matrix theory are studied. In particular, the predictions from chiral random matrix theory in topologically non-trivial gauge field sectors are…
For every square matrix $A$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$, we have the equality $\mathrm{rank}(A) + \mathrm{rank}(I-A) = \mathrm{rank}(I) + \mathrm{rank}(A-A^2)$ where $I$ denotes the identity matrix with the same dimensions as $A$. In this…
Consider the set of solutions to a system of polynomial equations in many variables. An algebraic manifold is an open submanifold of such a set. We introduce a new method for computing integrals and sampling from distributions on algebraic…
We prove that independent rectangular random matrices, when embedded in a space of larger square matrices, are asymptotically free with amalgamation over a commutative finite dimensional subalgebra $D$ (under an hypothesis of unitary…
We introduce a new framework called linear algebraic number theory (LANT) that reformulates the number-theoretic problem as a regression model and solves it using matrix algebra. This framework restricts all computations to log space,…
Tiling spaces are constructed using a metric in which two tilings of $\mathbb{R}^n$ are close if and only if, after a small translation, they agree on a large ball around the origin. We construct analogous spaces to study random…
This is a survey of some recent applications of Boolean valued analysis to operator theory and harmonic analysis. Under consideration are pseudoembedding operators, the noncommutative Wickstead problem, the Radon-Nikodym Theorem for…
We study differentiability properties of convex operators defined on a Banach space with values in an $\Lc_p$ space and of their compositions with monotonic convex functionals on this space. We develop new tools for operators enjoying an…
The Wigner-von Neumann method, which was previously used for perturbing continuous Schr\"{o}dinger operators, is here applied to their discrete counterparts. In particular, we consider perturbations of arbitrary $T$-periodic Jacobi…
By the Gelfand-Naimark theorem, any C*-algebra is isometrically isomorphic to a *-algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space which is closed with respect to the topology induced by the operator norm. Hence, the C*-algebras furnish an…
We study random band matrices within the framework of traffic probability, an operadic non-commutative probability theory introduced by Male based on graph operations. As a starting point, we revisit the familiar case of the permutation…
Conjectures have historically played an important role in the development of pure mathematics. We propose a systematic approach to finding abstract patterns in mathematical data, in order to generate conjectures about mathematical…
