Complex manifolds with compatible metric have a naturally defined subspace of harmonic differential forms that satisfy Serre, Hodge, and conjugation duality, as well as hard Lefschetz duality. This last property follows from a…

We show that $(n+1)$-dimensional Myers-Perry metrics, $n\geq4$, have a conformal completion at spacelike infinity of $C^{n-3,1}$ differentiability class, and that the result is optimal in even spacetime dimensions. The associated asymptotic…

The index of a Riemannian symmetric space is the minimal codimension of a proper totally geodesic submanifold (Onishchik, 1980). There is a conjecture by the first two authors for how to calculate the index. In this paper we give an…

We study and simulate N=2 supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models in one and two dimensions. For any choice of the lattice derivative, the theories can be made manifestly supersymmetric by adding appropriate improvement terms corresponding to…

In this work, we find base and dimension of a subspace appeared in works by V. A. Sharafutdinov. The same problem, but expressed in terms of polynomials from matrix minors, was initially solved by W. Hodge. The new result of this paper is…

We show, in this note, that on any symplectic supermanifold, even or odd, there exist an infinite dimensional affine space of symmetric connections, compatible to the symplectic form.

Let $H$ be a positive semi-definite matrix partitioned in $\beta\times \beta$ Hermitian blocks, $H=[A_{s,t}]$, $1\le s,t,\le \beta$. Then, for all symmetric norms, {equation*} \| H \| \le \| \sum_{s=1}^{\beta} A_{s,s} \|. {equation*} The…

K-Theory for hermitian symmetric spaces of non-compact type, as developed recently by the authors, allows to put Cartan's classification into a homological perspective. We apply this method to the case of inductive limits of finite…

We initiate the rigorous study of classification in semimetric spaces, which are point sets with a distance function that is non-negative and symmetric, but need not satisfy the triangle inequality. For metric spaces, the doubling dimension…

In this paper, we determine the partial positivity(resp., negativity) of the curvature of all irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces. From the classifications of abstract root systems and maximal subsystems, we can give the calculations…

Positive semidefinite matrices partitioned into a small number of Hermitian blocks have a remarkable property. Such a matrix may be written in a simple way from the sum of its diagonal blocks

We propose a novel method of finding the classical limit of the matrix geometry. We define coherent states for a general matrix geometry described by a large-N sequence of D Hermitian matrices X_\mu (\mu =1,2, ..., D) and construct a…

This paper presents a group of analytical formulas for calculating the global maximal and minimal ranks and inertias of the quadratic matrix-valued function $\phi(X) = (\, AXB + C\,)M(\, AXB + C)^{*} + D$ and use them to derive necessary…

We study singular Hermitian metrics on vector bundles. There are two main results in this paper. The first one is on the coherence of the higher rank analogue of multiplier ideals for singular Hermitian metrics defined by global sections.…

It is known that hermitean random matrix ensembles can be identified with symmetric coset spaces of Lie groups, or else with tangent spaces of the same. This results in a classification of random matrix ensembles as well as applications in…

We consider the question that the spectrum and arithmetic of locally symmetric spaces defined by congruent arithmetical lattices should mutually determine each other. We frame these questions in the context of automorphic representations.

We present a systematic study on the linear convergence rates of the powers of (real or complex) matrices. We derive a characterization when the optimal convergence rate is attained. This characterization is given in terms of…

Matrices can be augmented by adding additional columns such that a partitioning of the matrix in blocks of rows defines mutually orthogonal subspaces. This augmented system can then be solved efficiently by a sum of projections onto these…

We prove simplicity, and compute $\delta$-derivations and symmetric associative forms of algebras in the title.
