We introduce a countable collection of positivity classes for Hermitian symmetric functions on a complex manifold, and establish their basic properties. We study a related notion of stability. The first main result shows that, if the…

Let ${\bf M}_n(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $n\times n$ matrices over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. We consider linear maps $\Phi: {\bf M}_n(\mathbb{F}) \rightarrow {\bf M}_r(\mathbb{F})$ preserving matrices annihilated by a fixed…

We construct explicit examples of Dirac-harmonic maps $(\phi, \psi)$ between Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ and $(N,g')$ which are non-trivial in the sense that $\phi$ is not harmonic. When $\dim M=2$, we also produce examples where $\phi$ is…

A matrix is totally positive if all of its minors are positive. This notion of positivity coincides with the type A version of Lusztig's more general total positivity in reductive real-split algebraic groups. Since skew-symmetric matrices…

A weighted graph $\phi G$ encodes a finite metric space $D_{\phi G}$. When is $D$ totally decomposable? When does it embed in $\ell_1$ space? When does its representing matrix have $\leq 1$ positive eigenvalue? We give useful lemmata and…

Let $\alpha$ be a totally positive algebraic integer, and define its absolute trace to be $\frac{Tr(\alpha)}{\text{deg}(\alpha)}$, the trace of $\alpha$ divided by the degree of $\alpha$. Elementary considerations show that the absolute…

Kraus maps (completely positive trace preserving maps) arise classically in quantum information, as they describe the evolution of noncommutative probability measures. We introduce tropical analogues of Kraus maps, obtained by replacing the…

In this paper, we consider representations induced by general positive and completely positive sesquilinear maps with values in ordered Banach bimodules, such as the space of trace-class operators and the spaces of bounded linear operators…

A matrix is called totally negative (totally non-positive) of order $k$, if all its minors of size at most $k$ are negative (non-positive). The objective of this article is to provide several novel characterizations of total negativity via…

Let $A$ be a $m\times m$ complex matrix with zero trace and let $\e>0$. Then there are $m\times m$ matrices $B$ and $C$ such that $A=[B,C]$ and $\|B\|\|C\|\le K_\e m^\e\|A\|$ where $K_\e$ depends only on $\e$. Moreover, the matrix $B$ can…

We give partial answers to the following question: if $F$ is an $m$ by $m$ matrix on $\mathbb{R}^n$ satisfying a second order linear elliptic equation, does $\det F$ satisfy the strong unique continuation property? We give counterexamples…

We obtain general trace formulae in the case of perturbation of self-adjoint operators by self-adjoint operators of class $\bS_m$, where $m$ is a positive integer. In \cite{PSS} a trace formula for operator Taylor polynomials was obtained.…

Let $F$ be a transversely oriented foliation of codimension 1 on a closed manifold $M$, and let $\phi=\{\phi^t\}$ be a foliated flow on $(M,F)$. Assume the closed orbits of $\phi$ are simple and its preserved leaves are transversely simple.…

Let $\mathsf{TT}^2_k$ denote the combinatorial principle stating that every $k$-coloring of pairs of compatible nodes in the full binary tree has a homogeneous solution, i.e. an isomorphic subtree in which all pairs of compatible nodes have…

It is known that the inequality $$ \frac{\chi(G)(\chi(G)-1)}{2} + |V| - \chi(G) \leq |E|$$ holds for all connected graphs, where $\chi(G)$ denotes the chromatic number of $G$. We prove that equality holds whenever the graph consists of a…

In this paper we deal with a class of inequalities which interpolate the Kato's inequality and the Hardy's inequality in the half space. Starting from the classical Hardy's inequality in the half space $\rnpiu =\R^{n-1}\times(0,\infty)$, we…

Many combinatorial matrices --- such as those of binomial coefficients, Stirling numbers of both kinds, and Lah numbers --- are known to be totally non-negative, meaning that all minors (determinants of square submatrices) are non-negative.…

Let $K=k(C)$ be the function field of a complete nonsingular curve $C$ over an arbitrary field $k$. The main result of this paper states that a morphism $\phi:{\mathbb P}^N_K\to{\mathbb P}^N_K$ is isotrivial if and only if it has potential…

Let ${\mathcal M}$ be a von Neumann algebra without central summands of type $I_1$. Assume that $\Phi:{\mathcal M}\rightarrow {\mathcal M}$ is a surjective map. It is shown that $\Phi$ is strong skew commutativity preserving (that is,…

In this paper, we consider all possible variants of Choi matrices of linear maps, and show that they are determined by non-degenerate bilinear forms on the domain space. We will do this in the setting of finite dimensional vector spaces. In…
