In this paper, we consider the space $\mathrm{BV}^{\mathbb A}(\Omega)$ of functions of bounded $\mathbb A$-variation. For a given first order linear homogeneous differential operator with constant coefficients $\mathbb A$, this is the space…
Uhlmann showed that there exists a positive, unital and trace-preserving map transforming a Hermitian matrix $A$ into another $B$ if and only if the vector of eigenvalues of $A$ majorizes that of $B$. In this work I characterize the…
We derive a new pointwise characterization of the subdifferential of the total variation (TV) functional. It involves a full trace operator which maps certain $ L^q $ - vectorfields to integrable functions with respect to the total…
The ratio of Laplace transforms of powers of a function arises in the context of auction theory. The question whether a function is uniquely identified by this ratio has been answered affirmatively, if the function is non-negative,…
Traces and their extension called combined traces (comtraces) are two formal models used in the analysis and verification of concurrent systems. Both models are based on concepts originating in the theory of formal languages, and they are…
This paper extends the trace formulas of [5] with perturbations in normed ideals of $B(H)$ to multivariate functions of commuting contractions admitting a dilation to commuting normal contractions.
We obtain Taylor approximations for functionals $V\mapsto Tr(f(H_0+V))$ defined on the bounded self-adjoint operators, where $H_0$ is a self-adjoint operator with compact resolvent and $f$ is a sufficiently nice scalar function, relaxing…
Polyconvexity is an important concept in the analysis of energies related to elasticity. A function $f \colon \R^{d\times d} \to \R$ is called polyconvex if it can be written as a convex function in the minors of the argument. We show that…
Trace classes of Sobolev-type functions in metric spaces are subject of this paper. In particular, functions on domains whose boundary has an upper codimension-$\theta$ bound are considered. Based on a Poincar\'e inequality, existence of a…
We define an affine structure on $\ltwor\oplus...\oplus\ltwor$ and, following some ideas developed in \cite{Dut1}, we construct a local trace function for this situation. This trace function is a complete invariant for a shift invariant…
The operator monotone functions defined in the positive half-line are of particular importance. We give a version of the theory in which integral representations for these functions can be established directly without invoking L\"owner's…
In this note we study the problem of evaluating the trace of $f(T)-f(R)$, where $T$ and $R$ are contractions on Hilbert space with trace class difference, i.e., $T-R\in\boldsymbol{S}_1$ and $f$ is a function analytic in the unit disk ${\Bbb…
This paper establishes trace-formulae for a class of operators defined in terms of the functional calculus for the Laplace operator on divergence-free vector fields with relative and absolute boundary conditions on Lipschitz domains in…
We adapt to global fields of positive characteristic the contents of the book by Labesse and Waldspurger on the Twisted Trace Formula after the Friday Morning Seminar.
We study two-dimensional subshifts whose horizontal trace (a.k.a. projective subdynamics) contains only points of finite support. Our main result is a classification result for such subshifts satisfying a minimality property. As…
We give a simple definition of a spectral shift function for pairs of nonpositive operators on Banach spaces and prove trace formulas of Lifshitz-Kre\u{\i}n type for a perturbation of an operator monotonic (negative complete Bernstein)…
Two transforms of functions on a half-line are considered. It is proved that their composition gives a concave majorant for every nonnegative function. In particular, this composition is the identity transform on the class of nonnegative…
Let $\mathbb{F}_{p^{n}}$ be the finite field with $p^n$ elements and $\operatorname{Tr}(\cdot)$ be the trace function from $\mathbb{F}_{p^{n}}$ to $\mathbb{F}_{p}$, where $p$ is a prime and $n$ is an integer. Inspired by the works of…
This paper concerns three classes of real-valued functions on intervals, operator monotone functions, operator convex functions, and strongly operator convex functions. Strongly operator convex functions were previously treated in [3] and…
The structure of type A and B trace anomalies is reanalyzed in terms of the universal behaviour of dimension -2 invariant amplitudes. Based on it a general argument for trace anomaly matching between the unbroken and broken phases of a CFT…
