We prove that a certain positivity condition, considerably more general than pseudoconvexity, enables one to conclude that the regular order of contact and singular order of contact agree when these numbers are $4$.

Order unit property of a positive element in a $C^{*}$-algebra is defined. It is proved that precisely projections satisfy this order theoretic property. This way, unital hereditary $C^{*}$-subalgebras of a $C^{*}$-algebra are…

For a given polyhedral convex set-valued mapping we define a polyhedral convex cone which we call the natural ordering cone. We show that the solution behavior of a polyhedral convex set optimization problem can be characterized by this…

We consider the optimal containment of polygonal regions within convex containers with the special property of 'orientedness' - an oriented region enables us to choose a preferred direction on the plane (this direction is not necessarily an…

We introduce the notion of order projections using the order unit property of a positive element in an order unit space and characterize them in terms of (geometric) orthogonality. We describe order projections of the order unit space…

We prove the absolute convergence of orbital integrals on a unitary group over a non-archimedean local field in any positive characteristic.

We show that compact K\"ahler manifolds have the rational cohomology ring of complex projective space provided a weighted sum of the lowest three eigenvalues of the K\"ahler curvature operator is positive. This follows from a more general…

We present sufficient conditions for total positivity of Riordan arrays. As applications we show that many well-known combinatorial triangles are totally positive and many famous combinatorial numbers are log-convex in a unified approach.

Let $A$ be a unital separable simple $C^*$-algebra with tracial rank zero and let $x, \, y\in A$ be two normal elements. We show that $x$ is in the closure of the convex full of the unitary obit of $y$ if and only if there exists a sequence…

Given a surjective ring homomorphism, we study when the induced group homomorphism on unit groups is surjective. To this end, we introduce notions of generalized inverses and units, as well as a class of rings such that the set of closed…

This work investigates preserving and reversing unimodality and convexity properties for sequences under transformations defined by sign-regular kernels. It is shown that these transformations only preserve these properties if the kernels…

We study order units in the real group ring and the augmentation ideal, as well as in matrix algebras. We identify an infinite family of order units in the powers of the augmentation ideal, that includes the Laplacian, and show that these…

We show that the strengthened version of the completely positive approximation property of Brown, Carri\'on, and White---where the downward maps are asymptotically order zero and the upward maps are convex combinations of order zero…

We show that the units found in torsion-free group rings by Gardam are twisted unitary elements. This justifies some choices in Gardam's construction that might have appeared arbitrary, and yields more examples of units. We note that all…

We examine a number of *-ring orderings, generalizing classical properties of *-positive elements to *-accretives. We also examine *-rings satisfying versions of Blackadar's property (SP), generalizing some basic properties of Rickart…

We associate to every quandle $X$ and an associative ring with unity $\mathbf{k}$, a nonassociative ring $\mathbf{k}[X]$ following [3]. The basic properties of such rings are investigated. In particular, under the assumption that the inner…

Normal ideals on regular uncountable cardinals are familiar objects. We investigate ideals that are pleasant--while a normal ideal is closed under arbitrary diagonal unions, a pleasant ideal is closed only under diagonal unions indexed by…

A compact metric ring containing the set of positive integers as dense subset is studied. It is proven that tis ring is isomorph with a ring of reminder classes of ring of polyadic integers.

This paper is a part of ongoing research on order positive fields started some years ago. We prove that the real closure of an order positive field even in non-Archimedean case is also order positive.

We generalize a previous result of Stevenson to the category of dendroidal sets, yielding the right cancellation property of dendroidal inner anodynes within the class of normal monomorphisms. As an application of this property, we show how…
