Multialternating Jordan polynomials and codimension growth of matrix algebras
2007
Abstract Let R be the Jordan algebra of k × k matrices over a field of characteristic zero. We exhibit a noncommutative Jordan polynomial f multialternating on disjoint sets of variables of order k 2 and we prove that f is not a polynomial identity of R . We then study the growth of the polynomial identities of the Jordan algebra R through an analysis of its sequence of Jordan codimensions. By exploiting the basic properties of the polynomial f , we are able to prove that the exponential rate of growth of the sequence of Jordan codimensions of R in precisely k 2 .
Gradings on the algebra of upper triangular matrices of size three
2013
Abstract Let UT 3 ( F ) be the algebra of 3 × 3 upper triangular matrices over a field F . On UT 3 ( F ) , up to isomorphism, there are at most five non-trivial elementary gradings and we study the graded polynomial identities for such gradings. In case F is of characteristic zero we give a complete description of the space of multilinear graded identities in the language of Young diagrams through the representation theory of a Young subgroup of S n . We finally compute the multiplicities in the graded cocharacter sequence for every elementary G -grading on UT 3 ( F ) .
Quasi-isometries associated to A-contractions
2014
Abstract Given two operators A and T ( A ≥ 0 , ‖ A ‖ = 1 ) on a Hilbert space H satisfying T ⁎ A T ≤ A , we study the maximum subspace of H which reduces M = A 1 / 2 T to a quasi-isometry, that is on which the equality M ⁎ M = M ⁎ 2 M 2 holds. In some cases, this subspace coincides with the maximum subspace which reduces M to a normal partial isometry, for example when A = T T ⁎ , and in particular if T ⁎ is a cohyponormal contraction. In this case the corresponding subspace can be completely described in terms of asymptotic limit of the contraction T. When M is quasinormal and M ⁎ M = A then the former above quoted subspace reduces to the kernel of A − A 2 . The case of an arbitrary contra…
Standard polynomials and matrices with superinvolutions
2016
Abstract Let M n ( F ) be the algebra of n × n matrices over a field F of characteristic zero. The superinvolutions ⁎ on M n ( F ) were classified by Racine in [12] . They are of two types, the transpose and the orthosymplectic superinvolution. This paper is devoted to the study of ⁎-polynomial identities satisfied by M n ( F ) . The goal is twofold. On one hand, we determine the minimal degree of a standard polynomial vanishing on suitable subsets of symmetric or skew-symmetric matrices for both types of superinvolutions. On the other, in case of M 2 ( F ) , we find generators of the ideal of ⁎-identities and we compute the corresponding sequences of cocharacters and codimensions.
Convex and expansive liftings close to two-isometries and power bounded operators
2021
Abstract In the context of Hilbert space operators, there is a strong relationship between convex and expansive operators and 2-isometries. In this paper, we investigate the bounded linear operators T on a Hilbert space H which have a 2-isometric lifting S on a Hilbert space K containing H as a closed subspace invariant for S ⁎ S . This last property holds in particular when S | K ⊖ H is an isometry. We relate such 2-isometric liftings S by some convex, concave or expansive liftings of the same type as S. We also examine some power bounded operators with such liftings, as well as an intermediate expansive lifting associated with T on the space H ⊕ l + 2 ( H ) . The latter notion is used to …
Stability and Finiteness Properties of Medial Axis and Skeleton
2004
The medial axis is a geometric object associated with any bounded open set in \Bbb R^n which has various applications in computer science. We study it from a mathematical point of view. We give some results about its geometrical structure when the open set is subanalytic and we prove that it is stable under C2-perturbations when the open set is bounded by a hypersurface with positive local feature size.
Some common fixed point results for weakly compatible mappings in cone metric type space
2013
In this paper we consider cone metric type spaces which are introduced as a generalization of symmetric and metric spaces by Khamsi and Hussain in 2010. Then we prove several common fixed point for weakly compatible mappings in cone metric type spaces. All results are proved in the settings of a solid cone, without the assumption of continuity of the mappings.
Operators intertwining with isometries and Brownian parts of 2-isometries
2016
Abstract For two operators A and T ( A ≥ 0 ) on a Hilbert space H satisfying T ⁎ A T = A and the A-regularity condition A T = A 1 / 2 T A 1 / 2 we study the subspace N ( A − A 2 ) in connection with N ( A T − T A ) , for T belonging to different classes. Our results generalize those due to C. Kubrusly concerning the case when T is a contraction and A = S T is the asymptotic limit of T. Also, the particular case of a 2-isometry in the sense of S. Richter as well as J. Agler and M. Stankus is considered. For such operators, under the same regularity condition we completely describe the reducing Brownian unitary and isometric parts, as well as the invariant Brownian isometric part. Some exampl…
The exponent for superalgebras with superinvolution
2018
Abstract Let A be a superalgebra with superinvolution over a field of characteristic zero and let c n ⁎ ( A ) , n = 1 , 2 , … , be its sequence of ⁎-codimensions. In [6] it was proved that such a sequence is exponentially bounded. In this paper we capture this exponential growth for finitely generated superalgebras with superinvolution A over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We shall prove that lim n → ∞ c n ⁎ ( A ) n exists and it is an integer, denoted exp ⁎ ( A ) and called ⁎-exponent of A. Moreover, we shall characterize finitely generated superalgebras with superinvolution according to their ⁎-exponent.
Highly tunable optically switched time delay line for transversal filtering
2003
A novel tunable dispersion device, based on two chirped fibre gratings subjected to non-uniform magnetic fields, is presented. A large degree of tunability is achieved from 250 to 750 ps/nm. This is used to demonstrate RF filtering in the 3-11 GHz range.
