In this presentation, I review the status of selected Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix elements and their role in the Unitarity Triangle (UT). Since this conference concluded, many new results have been finalized and are included in…
We define a notion of strong shift equivalence for $C^*$-correspondences and show that strong shift equivalent $C^*$-correspondences have strongly Morita equivalent Cuntz-Pimsner algebras. Our analysis extends the fact that strong shift…
We investigate the statistical properties of $C=uvu^{-1}v^{-1}$, when $u$ and $v$ are independent random matrices, uniformly distributed with respect to the Haar measure of the groups $U(N)$ and $O(N)$. An exact formula is derived for the…
We present a survey of recent results, scattered in a series of papers that appeared during past five years, whose common denominator is the use of cubic relations in various algebraic structures. Cubic (or ternary) relations can represent…
The centralizer of a matrix in a full matrix algebra is called a principal centralizer matrix algebra. Characterizations are presented for principal centralizer matrix algebras to be Morita equivalent, almost $\nu$-stable derived…
We give a conceptual explanation of universal deformation formulas for unital associative algebras and prove some results on the structure of their moduli spaces. We then generalize universal deformation formulas to other types of algebras…
We study in an unified fashion several quadratic vector and matrix equations with nonnegativity hypotheses. Specific cases of such problems (QBD equations, nonsymmetric algebraic Riccati equations, Lu's simple equation, Markovian binary…
We study CMV matrices (a discrete one-dimensional Dirac-type operator) with random decaying coefficients. Under mild assumptions we identify the local eigenvalue statistics in the natural scaling limit. For rapidly decreasing coefficients,…
We study spaces of reflectionless Jacobi matrices. The main theme is the following type of question: Given a reflectionless Jacobi matrix, is it possible to approximate it by other reflectionless and, typically, simpler Jacobi matrices of a…
We present a finite-order system of recurrence relations for a permanent of circulant matrices containing a band of k any-value diagonals on top of a uniform matrix (for k = 1, 2, and 3) as well as the method for deriving such recurrence…
This is an introductory note concerning the distribution vectors in a unitary representation of a Lie group. We discuss the definition of matrix coefficients associated with a pair of distributions and how one can compute them. Most of the…
Commutators and anticommutators of gamma matrices with arbitrary numbers of (antisymmetrized) indices are derived.
The CKM matrix elements $V_{td}$, $V_{ts}$ and $V_{tb}$, while notoriously hard to measure directly in experiment, can be determined to great precision within the Standard Model (SM) with a minimal set of observables due to unitarity of…
We derive a sequence of measures whose corresponding Jacobi matrices have special properties and a general mapping of an open quantum system onto 1D semi infinite chains with only nearest neighbour interactions. Then we proceed to use the…
The hierarchy amongst the CKM matrix elements, highlighted recently by Luo and Xing, has been rigorously revisited using the PDG parameterization incorporating unitarity constraints. Further, we have explored the evaluation of the CP…
Let V be a unitary space. Suppose G is a subgroup of the full symmetric group S_m and X is an irreducible unitary representation of G. In this paper, we introduce the generalized Cartesian symmetry class over V associated with G and X. Then…
In this paper, we extend the Fritzsch ansatz of quark mass matrices while retaining their hierarchical structures and show that the main features of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix $V$, including $|V^{}_{us}| \simeq |V^{}_{cd}|$,…
A square root is a unary operation with some special properties. In the paper, we introduce and study square roots on EMV-algebras. First, the known properties of square roots defined on MV-algebras will be generalized for EMV-algebras, and…
An overview of experimental determinations of different CKM elements is given with an emphasis on |Vub| and |Vcb| extraction. Measurements are compared to the Standard Model predictions and constraints on the unitarity triangle, arising…
It is shown that the CMV Laurent polynomials associated to the sieved Jacobi polynomials on the unit circle satisfy an eigenvalue equation with respect to a first order differential operator of Dunkl type. Using this result, the sieved…
