In this note, we characterize matrix functions that preserve the strong Perron-Frobenius property using the real Jordan canonical form of a real matrix.

It is shown that there exists a duality among fields. If a field is dual to another field, the solution of the field can be obtained from the dual field by the duality transformation. We give a general result on the dual fields. Different…

In this paper, we study the types of Jordan derivations of a Banach algebra $A$ with a right identity $e$. We show that if $eA$ is commutative and semisimple, then every Jordan derivation of $ A $ is a derivation. In this case, Jordan…

The dual normal factor graph and the factor graph duality theorem have been considered for discrete graphical models. In this paper, we show an application of the factor graph duality theorem to continuous graphical models. Specifically, we…

A Lagrangian formulation for the constrained search for the $N$-representable one-particle density matrix based on the McWeeny idempotency error minimization is proposed, which converges systematically to the ground state. A closed form of…

Invariant subspaces of a matrix $A$ are considered which are obtained by truncation of a Jordan basis of a generalized eigenspace of $A$. We characterize those subspaces which are independent of the choice of the Jordan basis. An…

We extend the notion of polar duality to pairs of transverse Lagrangian planes in the standard symplectic space. This allows us to show that polar duality has a natural interpretation in terms of symplectic geometry. We apply our results to…

Jordan, Wigner and von Neumann classified the possible algebras of quantum mechanical observables, and found they fell into 4 "ordinary" families, plus one remarkable outlier: the exceptional Jordan algebra. We point out an intriguing…

In this article, we develop a new approach to the Poincar\'e--Dulac normal form theory for a system of differential equations near a singular point. Using the continuous averaging method, we construct a normalization flow that moves a…

A unified model is addressed for general optimization problems in multi-scale complex systems. Based on necessary conditions and basic principles in physics, the canonical duality-triality theory is presented in a precise way to include…

Let $\lambda$ be a partition of an integer $n$ and ${\mathbb F}_q$ be a finite field of order $q$. Let $P_\lambda(q)$ be the number of strictly upper triangular $n\times n$ matrices of the Jordan type $\lambda$. It is known that the…

Let X be a minimal complex surface of general type such that its image via the canonical map is a surface; we denote by d the degree of the canonical map. In this expository work, first of all we recall the known possibilities for the…

I explore several related routes to deriving the Jordan-algebraic structure of finite-dimensional quantum theory from more transparent operational or physical principles, mainly involving ideas about the symmetries of, and the correlations…

We study symmetric continuous bilinear maps $V$ on a C$^*$-algebra $A$ that have the Jordan product property at a fixed element $z\in A$. We show that, whenever $A$ is a finite direct sum or a $c_0$-sum of infinite simple von Neumann…

Let $\Mn$ be the ring of all $n \times n$ matrices over a unital ring $\mathcal{R}$, let $\mathcal{M}$ be a 2-torsion free unital $\Mn$-bimodule and let $D:\Mn\rightarrow \mathcal{M}$ be an additive map. We prove that if $D(\A)\B+ \A…

Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over a field of characteristic two. As the main result of this paper, for every nilpotent element $e \in \mathfrak{sl}(V)$, we describe the Jordan normal form of $e$ on the…

The general linear quaternion function of degree one is a sum of terms with quaternion coefficients on the left and right. The paper considers the canonic form of such a function, and builds on the recent work of Todd Ell, who has shown…

We apply general difference calculus in order to obtain solutions to the functional equations of the second order. We show that factorization method can be successfully applied to the functional case. This method is equivariant under the…

It is a classical result in matrix algebra that any square matrix over a field can be conjugated to its transpose by a symmetric matrix. For $F$ a non-Archimedean local field, Tupan used this to give an elementary proof that transpose…

We develop the `duality approach', that has been extensively studied for classical models of transport, for quantum systems in contact with a thermal `Lindbladian' bath. The method provides (a) a mapping of the original model to a simpler…
