Spectrally Arbitrary

Abstract Given a square matrix A, replacing each of its nonzero entries with the symbol * gives its zero-nonzero pattern. Such a pattern is said to be spectrally arbitrary when it carries essentially no information about the eigenvalues of A. A longstanding open question concerns the smallest possible number of nonzero entries in an n × n spectrally arbitrary pattern. The Generalized 2n Conjecture states that, for a pattern that meets an appropriate irreducibility condition, this number is 2n. An example of Shitov shows that this irreducibility is essential; following his technique, we construct a smaller such example. We then develop an appropriate algebraic condition and apply it computationally to show that, for n ≤ 7, the conjecture does hold for ℝ, and that there are essentially only two possible counterexamples over ℂ. Examining these two patterns, we highlight the problem of determining whether or not either is in fact spectrally arbitrary over ℂ. A general method for making this determination for a pattern remains a major goal; we introduce an algebraic tool that may be helpful.

Vassiliev Invariants

In the 1990s, Habiro defined Ck-move of oriented links for each natural number k [5]. A Ck-move is a kind of local move of oriented links, and two oriented knots have the same Vassiliev invariants of order [les ] k−1 if and only if they are transformed into each other by Ck-moves. Thus he has succeeded in deducing a geometric conclusion from an algebraic condition. However, this theorem appears only in his recent paper [6], in which he develops his original clasper theory and obtains the theorem as a consequence of clasper theory. We note that the ‘if’ part of the theorem is also shown in [4], [9], [10] and [16], and in [13] Stanford gives another characterization of knots with the same Vassiliev invariants of order [les ] k−1.

Smooth Action

AbstractFor any finite group G, we impose an algebraic condition, the Gnil-coset condition, and prove that any finite Oliver group G satisfying the Gnil-coset condition has a smooth action on some sphere with isolated fixed points at which the tangent G-modules are not isomorphic to each other. Moreover, we prove that, for any finite non-solvable group G not isomorphic to Aut(A6) or PΣL(2, 27), the Gnil-coset condition holds if and only if rG ≥ 2, where rG is the number of real conjugacy classes of elements of G not of prime power order. As a conclusion, the Laitinen Conjecture holds for any finite non-solvable group not isomorphic to Aut(A6).

AbstractThe paper [3] proved a necessary algebraic condition for a Banach algebra A with finite-dimensional radical R to have a unique complete (algebra) norm, and conjectured that this condition is also sufficient. We extend the above theorem. The conjecture is confirmed in the case where A is separable and A/R is commutative, but is shown to fail in general. Similar questions for derivations are discussed.

Abstract Motivated by computational geometry of point configurations on the Euclidean plane, and by the theory of cluster algebras of type $A$, we introduce and study Heronian friezes, the Euclidean analogues of Coxeter’s frieze patterns. We prove that a generic Heronian frieze possesses the glide symmetry (hence is periodic) and establish the appropriate version of the Laurent phenomenon. For a closely related family of Cayley–Menger friezes, we identify an algebraic condition of coherence, which all friezes of geometric origin satisfy. This yields an unambiguous propagation rule for coherent Cayley–Menger friezes, as well as the corresponding periodicity results.
