An arrow matrix is a matrix with zeroes outside the main diagonal, first row, and first column. We consider the space $M_{St_n,\lambda}$ of Hermitian arrow $(n+1)\times (n+1)$-matrices with fixed simple spectrum $\lambda$. We prove that…

Let $X:=\mathrm{Spec}(R)$ be an affine Noetherian scheme, and $\mathcal{M} \subset \mathcal{N}$ be a pair of finitely generated $R$-modules. Denote their Rees algebras by $\mathcal{R}(\mathcal{M})$ and $\mathcal{R}(\mathcal{N})$. Let…

Let \Omega be a bounded, weakly convex domain in C^n, n>1, having real-analytic boundary. A(\Omega) is the algebra of all functions holomorphic in \Omega and continuous upto the boundary. A submanifold M\subset \partial\Omega is said to be…

This paper defines, for each convex polytope $\Delta$, a family $H_w\Delta$ of vector spaces. The definition uses a combination of linear algebra and combinatorics. When what is called exact calculation holds, the dimension $h_w\Delta$ of…

Finite quasi semimetrics on $n$ can be thought of as nonnegative valuations on the edges of a complete directed graph on $n$ vertices satisfying all possible triangle inequalities. They comprise a polyhedral cone whose symmetry groups were…

A matrix-valued measure $\Theta$ reduces to measures of smaller size if there exists a constant invertible matrix $M$ such that $M\Theta M^*$ is block diagonal. Equivalently, the real vector space ${\mathscr A}$ of all matrices $T$ such…

Let A and B be normal matrices with coefficients that are continuous complex-valued functions on a topological space X that has the homotopy type of a CW complex, and suppose these matrices have the same distinct eigenvalues at each point…

We describe the $C_2$-equivariant homotopy type of the space of commuting n-tuples in the stable unitary group in terms of Real K-theory. The result is used to give a complete calculation of the homotopy groups of the space of commuting…

Let X be a finite set of complex numbers and let A be a normal operator with spectrum X that acts on a separable Hilbert space H. Relative to a fixed orthonormal basis e_1,e_2, ... for H, A gives rise to a matrix whose diagonal is a…

We study the C$^*$-algebra of Wiener-Hopf operators $A_\Omega$ on a cone $\Omega$ with polyhedral base $P$. As is known, a sequence of symbol maps may be defined, and their kernels give a filtration by ideals of $A_\Omega$, with liminary…

For a metrizable space $X$ of density $\kappa$, let $PM(X)$ be the space of continuous bounded pseudometrics on $X$ endowed with the uniform convergence topology. In this paper, its topology shall be classified as follows: (i) If $X$ is…

Let ${\mathcal H}$ be a complex Hilbert space and let ${\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on ${\mathcal H}$. For a positive integer $k$ less than the dimension of ${\mathcal H}$ and ${\mathbf A} =…

We describe a new sequence of polytopes which characterize A_infinity maps from a topological monoid to an A_infinity space. Therefore each of these polytopes is a quotient of the corresponding multiplihedron. Later term(s) in our sequence…

The mixing operation for abstract polytopes gives a natural way to construct the minimal common cover of two polytopes. In this paper, we apply this construction to the regular convex polytopes, determining when the mix is again a polytope,…

We give a proof of the Universality Conjecture for orthogonal and symplectic ensembles of random matrices in the scaling limit for a class of weights w(x)=exp(-V(x)) where V is a polynomial, V(x)=kappa_{2m}x^{2m}+..., kappa_{2m}>0. For such…

The beta transformation is the iterated map $\beta x\,\mod1$; it generates the base-$\beta$ expansion of a real number x. Every iterated piece-wise monotonic map is topologically conjugate to the beta transformation. For all but a countable…

We consider sets and maps defined over an o-minimal structure over the reals, such as real semi-algebraic or subanalytic sets. A {\em monotone map} is a multi-dimensional generalization of a usual univariate monotone function, while the…

Almost-commuting matrices with respect to the normalized Hilbert-Schmidt norm are considered. Normal almost commuting matrices are proved to be near commuting.

A polytrope is a tropical polyhedron that is also classically convex. We study the tropical combinatorial types of polytropes associated to weighted directed acyclic graphs (DAGs). This family of polytropes arises in algebraic statistics…

Given a simplicial complex $X$, we construct a simplicial complex $\Omega X$ that may be regarded as a combinatorial version of the based loop space of a topological space. Our construction explicitly describes the simplices of $\Omega X$…
