We define the quadratic algebra su(2)_{\alpha} which is a one-parameter deformation of the Lie algebra su(2) extended by a parity operator. The odd-dimensional representations of su(2) (with representation label j, a positive integer) can…

The fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}$ is a non-local operator which depends on the parameter $\alpha$ and recovers the usual Laplacian as $\alpha \to 2$. A numerical method for the fractional Laplacian is proposed, based on the…

Global SHAP explanations are typically presented as feature-importance rankings, which identify variables that matter to a black-box model but do not indicate whether their effects admit clear directional summaries, how uncertain those…

Recent work of Fili and the author examines an ultrametric version of the Mahler measure, denoted $M_\infty(\alpha)$ for an algebraic number $\alpha$. We show that the computation of $M_\infty(\alpha)$ can be reduced to a certain search…

We prove, under certain conditions on $(\alpha,\beta)$, that each Schwartz function $f$ such that $f(\pm n^{\alpha}) = \hat{f}(\pm n^{\beta}) = 0, \forall n \ge 0$ must vanish identically, complementing a series of recent results involving…

We recall Vere-Jones's definition of the $\alpha$--permanent and describe the connection between the (1/2)--permanent and the hafnian. We establish expansion formulae for the $\alpha$--permanent in terms of partitions of the index set, and…

Let $\mathcal S$ denote the class of all functions of the form $f(z)=z+a_2z^2+a_3z^3+\cdots$ which are analytic and univalent in the open unit disk $\ID$ and, for $\lambda >0$, let $\Phi_\lambda (n,f)=\lambda a_n^2-a_{2n-1}$ denote the…

We continue the study of real polynomials acting entrywise on matrices of fixed dimension to preserve positive semidefiniteness, together with the related analysis of order properties of Schur polynomials. Previous work has shown that,…

Using the integral representations of the solutions of Schr\"odinger equation, which are the essential ingredients of the Gel'fand-Levitan and Marchenko integral equations of inverse scattering theory, we obtain a general theorem on the…

We show that if $\alpha$ is a positive $(2,2)$-form then so is $\alpha^2$. We also prove that this is no longer true for forms of higher degree.

Euler--Maclaurin and Poisson analogues of the summations $\sum_{a < n \leq b} \chi(n) f(n)$, $\sum_{a < n \leq b} d(n) f(n)$, $\sum_{a < n \leq b} d(n) \chi (n) f(n)$ have been obtained in a unified manner, where $(\chi (n))$ is a periodic…

Cylindric skew Schur functions, which are a generalisation of skew Schur functions, arise naturally in the study of P-partitions. Also, recent work of A. Postnikov shows they have a strong connection with a problem of considerable current…

Different q-factor definitions are considered. The formula connecting different q-factors is given. Also it is pointed the way to find all the q-factors from experimental data.

Let $\mu$ be a positive measure on the real line with locally finite support $\Lambda$ and integer masses such that its Fourier transform in the sense of distributions is a purely point measure. An explicit form is found for an entire…

Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote the class of analytic functions $f$ on the unit disk $\mathbb{D}=\{z\in\mathbb{C} : |z|<1\}$, normalized by $f(0)=0$ and $f^{\prime}(0)=1$. For $-\pi/2<\alpha<\pi/2$, let $\mathcal{S}_{\alpha}$ be the subclass of…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of the primes. We consider a class of random multiplicative functions $f$ supported on the squarefree integers, such that $\{f(p)\}_{p\in\mathcal{P}}$ form a sequence of $\pm1$ valued independent random…

This work uncovers variational principles behind symmetrizing the Bregman divergences induced by generic mirror maps over the cone of positive definite matrices. We show that computing the canonical means for this symmetrization can be…

The Cullis' determinant is a generalization of the ordinary determinant for rectangular matrices. It is defined as the alternating sum of maximal minors of given matrix. In this paper we express the Cullis' determinant of a matrix $X$ as…

Let $h$ and $g$ be two analytic functions in the unit disc $\Delta$ that $g(0)=1$. Also let $\beta$ be a complex number with ${\rm Re}\{\beta\}>-1/2$. A function $f$ is said to be log--harmonic mapping if it has the following representation…

We consider one-parameter families of quadratic-phase integral transforms which generalize the fractional Fourier transform. Under suitable regularity assumptions, we characterize the one-parameter groups formed by such transforms.…
