For any $\beta > 1$, let $T_\beta: [0,1)\rightarrow [0,1)$ be the $\beta$-transformation defined by $T_\beta x=\beta x \mod 1$. We study the uniform recurrence properties of the orbit of a point under the $\beta$-transformation to the point…

Let $A_r=\{r<|z|<1\}$ be an annulus. We consider the class of operators $\mathcal{F}_r:=\{T\in\mathcal{B}(H): r^2T^{-1}(T^{-1})^*+TT^*\le r^2+1,\hspace{0.08 cm}\sigma(T)\subset A_r\}$ and show that for every bounded holomorphic function…

A matrix $T \in \M_n(\C)$ is \emph{UECSM} if it is unitarily equivalent to a complex symmetric (i.e., self-transpose) matrix. We develop several techniques for studying this property in dimensions three and four. Among other things, we…

Both the original Temperley-Lieb algebras $\mathsf{TL}_{n}$ and their dilute counterparts $\mathsf{dTL}_{n}$ form families of filtered algebras: $\mathsf{TL}_{n}\subset \mathsf{TL}_{n+1}$ and $\mathsf{dTL}_{n}\subset\mathsf{dTL}_{n+1}$, for…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2. Up to isomorphism, the algebra $\operatorname{Mat}_{n \times n}(k)$ can be endowed with a $k$-linear involution in one way if $n$ is odd and in two ways if $n$ is…

We show that the distance from an element of a C*-algebra to the set of regular elements is the infimum of the $\delta>0$ for which the $\delta$-cut-down of the element admits a polar decomposition within the algebra. This parallels results…

We show that for piecewise hereditary algebras, the periodicity of the Coxeter transformation implies the non-negativity of the Euler form. Contrary to previous assumptions, the condition of piecewise heredity cannot be omitted, even for…

$\tau$-tilting theory can be thought of as a generalization of the classical tilting theory which allows mutations at any indecomposable summand of a support $\tau$-tilting pair. Indeed, for any algebra $\Lambda$ its tilting modules…

We prove that if A is a finite algebra with a parallelogram term that satisfies the split centralizer condition, then A is dualizable. This yields yet another proof of the dualizability of any finite algebra with a near unanimity term, but…

Let $T$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix, such that each diagonal entry $T_{i,i}$ is a continuous random variable, independent from all the other entries of $T$. Then for every $n\times n$ matrix $A$ and every $t\ge0$ $$…

We develop a nonperturbative approach to the bulk polarization of crystalline electric insulators in $d\geq1$ dimensions. Formally, we define polarization via the response to background fluxes of both charge and lattice translation…

Let $A$ be a star product on a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega_0)$, $\frac{1}{t}[\omega]$ its Fedosov class, where $\omega$ is a deformation of $\omega_0$. We prove that for a complex polarization of $\omega$ there exists a commutative…

We show that $VTC^0$, the basic theory of bounded arithmetic corresponding to the complexity class $\mathrm{TC}^0$, proves the $IMUL$ axiom expressing the totality of iterated multiplication satisfying its recursive definition, by…

We exhibit a randomized algorithm which given a matrix $A\in \mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ with $\|A\|\le 1$ and $\delta>0$, computes with high probability an invertible $V$ and diagonal $D$ such that $\|A-VDV^{-1}\|\le \delta$ using…

We show that whenever a contractive $k$-tuple $T$ on a finite dimensional space $H$ has a unitary dilation, then for any fixed degree $N$ there is a unitary $k$-tuple $U$ on a finite dimensional space so that $q(T) = P_H q(U) |_H$ for all…

The process of alternately row scaling and column scaling a positive $n \times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic positive $n \times n$ matrix $S(A)$, often called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. The main result in this paper…

A proposal is made for a mathematically unambiguous treatment of evolution in the presence of closed timelike curves. In constrast to other proposals for handling the naively nonunitary evolution that is often present in such situations,…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with unity $1$ and consider $k\in \mathbb{N}$ such that $1+1+..+1=k$ is invertible. Denote by $\omega$ an arbitrary kth root of unity in $R$ and let $UT^{(k)}_{\infty}(R)$ be the group of upper triangular…

We consider linear mappings on the $d$-dimensional torus, defined by $T(x) = Ax \pmod 1$, where $A$ is an invertible $d \times d$ integer matrix, with no eigenvalues on the unit circle. In the case $d = 2$ and $\det A = \pm 1$, we give a…

Let $H$ be a hereditary algebra of Dynkin type $D_n$ over a field $k$ and $\mathscr{C}_H$ be the cluster category of $H$. Assume that $n\geq 5$ and that $T$ and $T'$ are tilting objects in $\mathscr{C}_H$. We prove that the cluster-tilted…
