We reformulate the persistent (co)homology of simplicial filtrations, viewed from a more algebraic setting, namely as the (co)homology of a chain complex of graded modules over polynomial ring $K[t]$. We also define persistent (co)homology…

Recently the duality map between electric-like asymptotic charges of $p$-form gauge theories is studied. The outcome is an existence and uniqueness theorem and the topological nature of the duality map. The goal of this work is to extend…

We define tensors, corresponding to cubic polynomials, which have the same exponent $\omega$ as the matrix multiplication tensor. In particular, we study the symmetrized matrix multiplication tensor $sM_n$ defined on an $n\times n$ matrix…

We consider an algebra of even-order square tensors and introduce a stretching map which allows us to represent tensors as matrices. The stretching map could be understood as a generalized matricization. It conserves algebraic properties of…

In this note we present examples of localization functors (in the category of spaces) whose composition with certain cellularization functors is not idempotent, and vice versa.

The aim of this note is to gather formal similarities between two apparently different functions; {\em Euler's function} $\Gamma$ and {\em Anderson-Thakur function} $\omega$. We discuss these similarities in the framework of the {\em…

The symmetric group $\mathsf{S}_n$ and the partition algebra $\mathsf{P}_k(n)$ centralize one another in their actions on the $k$-fold tensor power $\mathsf{M}_n^{\otimes k}$ of the $n$-dimensional permutation module $\mathsf{M}_n$ of…

The norm of the $m$th derivative of the map that takes an operator to its $k$th antisymmetric tensor power is evaluated. The case $m=1$ has been studied earlier by Bhatia and Friedland [R. Bhatia and S. Friedland, Variation of Grassman…

We present novel equivalences in random matrix and tensor models between complex and self-adjoint theories with nontrivial quadratic terms in the action, established through an intermediate field representation. More precisely, we show that…

Let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an ideal in a commutative ring $R$. For an $R$-module $M$, we consider the small $\mathfrak{a}$-torsion $\Gamma_{\mathfrak{a}}(M)=\{x\in M\mid\exists n\in\mathbb{N}:\mathfrak{a}^n\subseteq(0:_Rx)\}$ and the large…

General Relativity and its higher derivative extensions have symmetric teleparallel reformulations in terms of the non-metricity tensor within a torsion-free and flat geometry. These notes present a derivation of the exact propagator for…

Let $\Lambda$ and $\Gamma$ be symmetrically separably equivalent Artin algebras. We prove that there exist symmetrical separable equivalences between certain endomorphism algebras of modules. As applications, we provide several methods to…

For stationary vacuum spacetimes the Bianchi identities of the second kind equate the Simon tensor to the Simon-Mars tensor, the latter having a clear geometrical interpretation. The equivalence of these two tensors is broken in the…

In this paper we study the computation of both algebraic and non-algebraic tensor functions under the tensor-tensor multiplication with linear maps. In the case of algebraic tensor functions, we prove that the asymptotic exponent of both…

This paper discusses the problem of symmetric tensor decomposition on a given variety $X$: decomposing a symmetric tensor into the sum of tensor powers of vectors contained in $X$. In this paper, we first study geometric and algebraic…

We discuss the relation between canonical and metric energy-momentum tensors for field theories with actions that can depend on the higher derivatives of tensor fields in a flat spacetime. In order to obtain it we use a modification of the…
