We give self-contained presentation of results related to the Kadison-Singer problem, which was recently solved by Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava. This problem connects with unusually large number of areas including: operator algebras…
In the summer of 2013 Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava gave a surprising and beautiful solution to the Kadison--Singer problem. The current presentation is slightly more didactical than other versions that have appeared since; it hopes to…
We will show that the famous, intractible 1959 Kadison-Singer problem in $C^{*}$-algebras is equivalent to fundamental unsolved problems in a dozen areas of research in pure mathematics, applied mathematics and Engineering. This gives all…
Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava recently solved the Kadison-Singer problem by showing that if u_1, ..., u_m are column vectors in C^d such that \sum u_iu_i^* = I, then a set of indices S \subseteq {1, ..., m} can be chosen so that \sum_{i…
Marcus, Spielman and Srivastava (Annals of Mathematics 2014) solved the Kadison--Singer Problem by proving a strong form of Weaver's conjecture: they showed that for all $\alpha > 0$ and all lists of vectors of norm at most $\sqrt{\alpha}$…
In this paper we survey a recent progress on continuous frames inspired by the solution of the Kadison-Singer problem by Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava. We present an extension of Lyapunov's theorem for discrete frames due to Akemann and…
We give a combinatorial form of the Kadison-Singer problem, a famous problem in C*-algebra. This combinatorial problem, which has several minor variations, is a discrepancy question about vectors in C^n. Some partial results can be easily…
These lecture notes are meant to accompany two lectures given at the CDM 2016 conference, about the Kadison-Singer Problem. They are meant to complement the survey by the same authors (along with Spielman) which appeared at the 2014 ICM. In…
Recently Marcus, Spielman and Srivastava gave a spectacular proof of a theorem which implies a positive solution to the Kadison-Singer problem. We extend (and slightly sharpen) this theorem to the realm of hyperbolic polynomials. A benefit…
This paper explores the intriguing connections between the invariant subspace problem, the Kadison-Singer problem, and the Borel conjecture. The Kadison-Singer problem, originally formulated in terms of pure states on C*-algebras, was later…
We give an informal overview of the Kadison-Singer extension problem with emphasis on its initial connections to Dirac's formulation of quantum mechanics. Let H be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, and B(H) the algebra of all…
Recently Marcus, Spielman and Srivastava gave a spectacular proof of a theorem which implies a positive solution to the Kadison-Singer problem via Weaver's $KS_r$ conjecture. We extend this theorem to the realm of hyperbolic polynomials and…
We study the following $\mathsf{KS}_2(c)$ problem: let $c \in\mathbb{R}^+$ be some constant, and $v_1,\ldots, v_m\in\mathbb{R}^d$ be vectors such that $\|v_i\|^2\leq \alpha$ for any $i\in[m]$ and $\sum_{i=1}^m \langle v_i, x\rangle^2 =1$…
In 1959, R.V. Kadison and I.M. Singer asked whether each pure state of the algebra of bounded diagonal operators on $\ell^2$, admits a unique state extension to $B(\ell^2)$. The positive answer was given in June 2013 by A. Marcus, D.…
We prove some new equivalences of the paving conjecture and obtain some estimates on the paving constants. In addition we give a new family of counterexamples to one of the Akemann-Anderson conjectures.
We sharpen the constant in the $KS_2$ conjecture of Weaver \cite{We}, which was validated by Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava \cite{MSS} in their solution of the Kadison--Singer problem. We then apply this result to prove optimal asymptotic…
We show that any $n\times m$ matrix $A$ can be approximated in operator norm by a submatrix with a number of columns of order the stable rank of $A$. This improves on existing results by removing an extra logarithmic factor in the size of…
Since the celebrated resolution of Kadison-Singer (via the Paving Conjecture) by Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava, much study has been devoted to further understanding and generalizing the techniques of their proof. Specifically, their…
Akemann and Weaver showed Lyapunov-type theorem for rank one positive semidefinite matrices which is an extension of Weaver's KS$_2$ conjecture that was proven by Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava in their breakthrough solution of the…
Akemann and Anderson made a conjecture about ``paving'' projections in finite dimensional matrix algebras which, if true, would settle the well-known Kadison-Singer problem. We falsify their conjecture by an explicit seqence of…
