In noncommutative geometry, Connes's spectral distance is an extended metric on the state space of a C*-algebra generalizing Kantorovich's dual formula of the Wasserstein distance of order 1 from optimal transport. It is expressed as a…
We consider the numbers of positive and negative eigenvalues of matrices of squared distances between randomly sampled i.i.d. points in a given metric measure space. These numbers and their limits, as the number of points grows, in fact…
The commuting variety of matrices over a given field is a well-studied object in linear algebra and algebraic geometry. As a set, it consists of all pairs of square matrices with entries in that field that commute with one another. In this…
A finite set of unlabelled points in Euclidean space is the simplest representation of many real objects from mineral rocks to sculptures. Since most solid objects are rigid, their natural equivalence is rigid motion or isometry maintaining…
This paper is a self-contained exposition of the geometry of symmetric positive-definite real $n\times n$ matrices $\operatorname{SPD}(n)$, including necessary and sufficent conditions for a submanifold $\mathcal{N}…
In physics, two systems that radically differ at short scales can exhibit strikingly similar macroscopic behaviour: they are part of the same long-distance universality class. Here we apply this viewpoint to geometry and initiate a program…
Consider the sum of the first $N$ eigenspaces for the Laplacian on a Riemannian manifold. A basis for this space determines a map to Euclidean space and for $N$ sufficiently large the map is an embedding. In analogy with a fruitful idea of…
Let $\cal M$ denote the set ${\cal S}_{n, q}$ of $n \times n$ symmetric matrices with entries in ${\rm GF}(q)$ or the set ${\cal H}_{n, q^2}$ of $n \times n$ Hermitian matrices whose elements are in ${\rm GF}(q^2)$. Then $\cal M$ equipped…
Let $\Gamma_n$ be an $n\times n$ Haar-invariant orthogonal matrix. Let $ Z_n$ be the $p\times q$ upper-left submatrix of $\Gamma_n,$ where $p=p_n$ and $q=q_n$ are two positive integers. Let $G_n$ be a $p\times q$ matrix whose $pq$ entries…
We study the structured distance to singularity for a given regular matrix pencil $A+sE$, where $(A,E)\in \mathbb S \subseteq (\mathbb C^{n,n})^2$. This includes Hermitian, skew-Hermitian, $*$-even, $*$-odd, $*$-palindromic, T-palindromic,…
One considers geometry with the intransitive equaivalence relation. Such a geometry is a physical geometry, i.e. it is described completely by the world function, which is a half of the squared distance function. The physical geometry…
The Hellinger distance between quantum states is a significant measure in quantum information theory, known for its Riemannian and monotonic properties. It is also easier to compute than the Bures distance, another measure that shares these…
We study the cone $\mathscr{P}_{\text{J}}$ of positive J-Hermitian matrices associated with an indefinite signature matrix J = $\text{Id}_{p,q}$. We show that the J-exponential map is bijective and use it to analyze the algebraic and…
We extend the application of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo to allow for sampling from probability distributions defined over symmetric or Hermitian positive definite matrices. To do so, we exploit the Riemannian structure induced by Cartan's…
The extended Gaussian family is the closure of the Gaussian family obtained by completing the Gaussian family with the counterpart elements induced by degenerate covariance or degenerate precision matrices, or a mix of both degeneracies.…
We show how positive unital linear maps can be used to obtain lower bounds for the maximum distance between the eigenvalues of two normal matrices. Some related bounds for the spread and condition number of Hermitian matrices are also…
Within a framework of noncommutative geometry, we develop an analogue of (pseudo) Riemannian geometry on finite and discrete sets. On a finite set, there is a counterpart of the continuum metric tensor with a simple geometric…
In a recent paper the author proved a theorem to the effect that the matrix of normalized Euclidean distances on the set of specially distributed random points in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb R^{n}$ with independent…
Riemann surfaces are among the simplest and most basic geometric objects. They appear as key players in many branches of physics, mathematics, and other sciences. Despite their widespread significance, how to compute distances between pairs…
A generalisation of Riemannian geometry is considered, based exclusively on the minimal assumptions that the line element $ds$ is a regular function of position and direction and that the distance of every point from itself is equal to…
