Consider a pair of elements $f$ and $g$ in a commutative ring $Q$. Given a matrix factorization of $f$ and another of $g$, the tensor product of matrix factorizations, which was first introduced by Kn\"orrer and later generalized by…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, $\psi$ a non-zero element of $\mathbb{F}_q$, and $n$ an integer $\geq 3$ prime to $q$. The aim of this article is to show that the zeta function of the projective variety over…

We give an $AB$-factorization of the supercharacter table of the group of $n\times n$ unipotent upper triangular matrices over $\FF_q$, where $A$ is a lower-triangular matrix with entries in $\ZZ[q]$ and $B$ is a unipotent upper-triangular…

We discuss the possibility to represent smooth nonnegative matrix-valued functions as finite linear combinations of fixed matrices with positive real-valued coefficients whose square roots are Lipschitz continuous. This issue is reduced to…

Given an element $f$ in a regular local ring, we study matrix factorizations of $f$ with $d \ge 2$ factors, that is, we study tuples of square matrices $(\varphi_1,\varphi_2,\dots,\varphi_d)$ such that their product is $f$ times an identity…

Let $\mathbb F_q$ be the finite field with $q$ elements, $f, g\in \mathbb F_q[x]$ be polynomials of degree at least one. This paper deals with the asymptotic growth of certain arithmetic functions associated to the factorization of the…

We introduce new zeta functions related to an endomorphism $\phi$ of a discrete group $\Gamma$. They are of two types: counting numbers of fixed ($\rho\sim \rho\circ\phi^n$) irreducible representations for iterations of $\phi$ from an…

We introduce higher-dimensional module factorizations associated to a regular sequence. They include higher-dimensional matrix factorizations, which are commutative cubes consisting of free modules with edges being classical matrix…

Nonunique factorization in cancellative commutative semigroups is often studied using combinatorial factorization invariants, which assign to each semigroup element a quantity determined by the factorization structure. For numerical…

Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers, and $f_n(k)$ (resp. $g_n(k)$) be the number of unital subrings (resp. unital irreducible subrings) of $\mathbb{Z}^n$ of index $k$. The numbers $f_n(k)$ are coefficients of certain zeta functions of…

This paper deals with the problem of factorizing integer powers of the Laplace operator acting on functions taking values in higher spin representations. This is a far-reaching generalization of the well-known fact that the square of the…

This article is the continuation of [LS12]. We use categories of matrix factorizations to define a morphism of rings (= a Landau-Ginzburg motivic measure) from the (motivic) Grothendieck ring of varieties over $\mathbb{A}^1$ to the…

In 1960 Schwinger [J. Schwinger, Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci. 46 (1960) 570- 579] proposed the algorithm for factorization of unitary operators in the finite M dimensional Hilbert space according to a coprime decomposition of M. Using a special…

A higher order difference equation may be generally defined in an arbitrary nonempty set S as: \[ f_{n}(x_{n},x_{n-1},...,x_{n-k})=g_{n}(x_{n},x_{n-1},...,x_{n-k}) \] where $f_{n},g_{n} :S^{k+1}\rightarrow S$ are given functions for…

Let G be a block matrix function with one diagonal block A being positive definite and the off diagonal blocks complex conjugates of each other. Conditions are obtained for G to be factorable (in particular, with zero partial indices) in…

We discuss how matrix factorizations offer a practical method of computing the quiver and associated superpotential for a hypersurface singularity. This method also yields explicit geometrical interpretations of D-branes (i.e., quiver…

This article generalizes the correspondence between matrix factorizations and maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over hypersurface rings due to Eisenbud and Yoshino. We consider factorizations with several factors in a purely categorical…

We establish operator-valued versions of the earlier foundational factorization results for noncommutative polynomials due to Helton (Ann.~Math., 2002) and one of the authors (Linear Alg.~Appl., 2001). Specifically, we show that every…

We study Frobenius eigenvalues of the compactly supported rigid cohomology of a variety defined over a finite field of $q$ elements via Dwork's method. A couple of arithmetic consequences will be drawn from this study. As the first…

We introduce and study new versions of polylogarithms and a zeta function on a completion of $\mathbb F_q (x)$ at a finite place. The construction is based on the use of the Carlitz differential equations for $\mathbb F_q$-linear functions.
