We equip the complex polynomial algebra C[t] with the involution which is the identity on C and sends t to -t. Answering a question raised by V.G. Kac, we show that every hermitian or skew-hermitian matrix over this algebra is congruent to…

We construct sense-preserving univalent harmonic mappings which map the unit disk onto a domain which is convex in the horizontal direction, but with varying dilatation. Also, we obtain minimal surfaces associated with such harmonic…

Cauchy's interlace theorem states that the characteristic polynomial of a symmetric matrix is interlaced by the characteristic polynomial of any principle submatrix. We prove this in two sentences using only the linearity of the…

In the Proceedings of the AMS Boulder conference in 1965 Langlands states a combinatorial lemma involving families of characteristic functions attached to ordered partitions of an obtuse basis in a finite dimensional euclidean vector space.…

A short proof of the Caratheodory conjecture about index of an isolated umbilic on the convex 2-dimensional sphere is suggested. The argument is based on the study of geodesic lines near cone-type singularity of a metric induced by…

In a variety of applications, the problem comes up of describing the principal part of the inverse of a holomorphic operator at an eigenvalue in terms of left and right root functions associated to the eigenvalue. Such a description was…

Hadwiger's Theorem states that Euclidean-invariant convex-continuous valuations of definable sets are linear combinations of intrinsic volumes. We lift this result from sets to data distributions over sets, specifically, to definable…

In this short note we prove the convexity of minimizers of some variational problem in the Gauss space. This proof is based on a geometric version of an older argument due to Korevaar.

Motivated by Stanley's conjecture on the multiplication of Jack symmetric functions, we prove a couple of identities showing that skew Jack symmetric functions are semi-invariant up to translation and rotation of a $\pi$ angle of the skew…

In a 1918 paper Schur proved a remarkable inequality that related group representations, Hermitian forms and determinants. He also gave concise necessary and sufficient conditions for equality. In 1964, Marcus gave a beautiful short proof…

We show that a normal matrix $A$ with coefficient in $\mathbb C[[X]]$, $X=(X_1, \ldots, X_n)$, can be diagonalized, provided the discriminant $\Delta_A $ of its characteristic polynomial is a monomial times a unit. The proof is an…

We analyze matrix convex functions of a fixed order defined on a real interval by differential methods as opposed to the characterization in terms of divided differences given by Kraus. We obtain for each order conditions for matrix…

We establish two-point distortion theorems for sense-preserving planar harmonic mappings $f=h+\overline{g}$ which satisfies the univalence criteria in the unit disc such that, Becker's and Nehari`s harmonic version. In addition, we find the…

A d.c. (delta-convex) function on a normed linear space is a function representable as a difference of two continuous convex functions. We show that an infinite dimensional analogue of Hartman's theorem on stability of d.c. functions under…

In this paper, we first prove the coefficient conjecture of Clunie and Sheil-Small for a class of univalent harmonic functions which includes functions convex in some direction. Next, we prove growth and covering theorems and some related…

Using works of T.~Ando and L.~Gurvits, the well-known theorem of P.R.~Halmos concerning the existence of unitary dilations for contractive linear operators acting on Hilbert spaces recast as a result for $d$-tuples of contractive Hilbert…

In 1962, H. de Vries proved a duality theorem for the category {\bf HC} of compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps. The composition of the morphisms of the dual category obtained by him differs from the set-theoretic one. Here we…

Williamson's theorem is well known for symmetric matrices. In this paper, we state and re-derive some of the cases of Williamson's theorem for symmetric positive-semi definite matrices and symmetric matrices having negative index 1, due to…

Given a real valued function having a nondegenerate compact manifold of critical points, some of these points survive under small $C^2$ perturbations. This is a well-known result in critical point theory. In 1986 Weinstein obtained the…

Sub-additive and super-additive inequalities for concave and convex functions have been generalized to the case of matrices by several authors over a period of time. These lead to some interesting inequalities for matrices, which in some…
