We show that several known results about the algebraic K-theory of tensor products of algebras with the C*-algebra of compact operators in Hilbert space remain valid for tensor products with any properly infinite C*-algebra.

In 1984, Kurt Mahler posed the following fundamental question: How well can irrationals in the Cantor set be approximated by rationals in the Cantor set? Towards development of such a theory, we prove a Dirichlet-type theorem for this…

We consider the issue of computability at the most fundamental level of physical reality: the Planck scale. To this aim, we consider the theoretical model of a quantum computer on a non commutative space background, which is a computational…

Anderson's paving conjecture, now known to hold due to the resolution of the Kadison-Singer problem asserts that every zero diagonal Hermitian matrix admits non-trivial pavings with dimension independent bounds. In this paper, we develop a…

Does a given system of linear equations with nonnegative constraints have an integer solution? This is a fundamental question in many areas. In statistics this problem arises in data security problems for contingency table data and also is…

Although whether P equals NP is an important, open problem in computer science, and although Jaeger's 2008 paper, "Solving the P/NP Problem Under Intrinsic Uncertainty" (arXiv:0811.0463) presents an attempt at tackling the problem by…

To explore the limitation of a class of quantum algorithms originally proposed for the Hilbert's tenth problem, we consider two further classes of mathematically non-decidable problems, those of a modified version of the Hilbert's tenth…

We study C*-irreducibility of inclusions of reduced twisted group C*-algebras and of reduced group C*-algebras. We characterize C*-irreducibility in the case of an inclusion arising from a normal subgroup, and exhibit many new examples of…

Even though it has been almost a century since quantum mechanics planted roots, the field has its share of unresolved problems. It could be the result of a wrong mathematical structure providing inadequate understanding of the quantum…

We consider Calderon -- Zygmund singular integral in the discrete half-space $h{\bf Z}^m_{+}$, where ${\bf Z}^m$ is entire lattice ($h>0$) in ${\bf R}^m$, and prove that the discrete singular integral operator is invertible in $L_2(h{\bf…

The algebraic intersection type unification problem is an important component in proof search related to several natural decision problems in intersection type systems. It is unknown and remains open whether the algebraic intersection type…

In computable analysis testing a real number for being zero is a fundamental example of a non-computable task. This causes problems for division: We cannot ensure that the number we want to divide by is not zero. In many cases, any real…
