The notion of context-equivalent algebras introduced by Müller generalizes Morita-equivalence. It is a coarser equivalence in the class of algebras but it still preserves many ring-theoretic properties. It also gives a new equivalence in the class of commutative algebras. We present a version of this equivalence which includes nonunital algebras. In particular, it allows one to relate properties of an algebra and its ideals. We give a criterion for context-equivalent algebras in terms of finite-rank and adjointable operators. Further, we find a better criterion for equivalence for commutative algebras in terms of ideals.

Abstract The classical Aronszajn–Donoghue theorem states that for a rank-one perturbation of a self-adjoint operator (by a cyclic vector) the singular parts of the spectral measures of the original and perturbed operators are mutually singular. As simple direct sum type examples show, this result does not hold for finite rank perturbations. However, the set of exceptional perturbations is pretty small. Namely, for a family of rank $d$ perturbations $A_{\boldsymbol{\alpha }}:= A + {\textbf{B}} {\boldsymbol{\alpha }} {\textbf{B}}^*$, ${\textbf{B}}:{\mathbb C}^d\to{{\mathcal{H}}}$, with ${\operatorname{Ran}}{\textbf{B}}$ being cyclic for $A$, parametrized by $d\times d$ Hermitian matrices ${\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$, the singular parts of the spectral measures of $A$ and $A_{\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$ are mutually singular for all ${\boldsymbol{\alpha }}$ except for a small exceptional set $E$. It was shown earlier by the 1st two authors, see [4], that $E$ is a subset of measure zero of the space $\textbf{H}(d)$ of $d\times d$ Hermitian matrices. In this paper, we show that the set $E$ has small Hausdorff dimension, $\dim E \le \dim \textbf{H}(d)-1 = d^2-1$.

AbstractThis paper establishes a new combinatorial framework for the study of coarse median spaces, bridging the worlds of asymptotic geometry, algebra and combinatorics. We introduce a simple and entirely algebraic notion of coarse median algebra which simultaneously generalises the concepts of bounded geometry coarse median spaces and classical discrete median algebras. We study the coarse median universe from the perspective of intervals, with a particular focus on cardinality as a proxy for distance. In particular we prove that the metric on a quasi-geodesic coarse median space of bounded geometry can be constructed up to quasi-isometry using only the coarse median operator. Finally we develop a concept of rank for coarse median algebras in terms of the geometry of intervals and show that the notion of finite rank coarse median algebra provides a natural higher dimensional analogue of Gromov’s concept of $$\delta $$ δ -hyperbolicity.

Abstract We consider a statistical model for finite-rank symmetric tensor factorization and prove a single-letter variational expression for its asymptotic mutual information when the tensor is of even order. The proof applies the adaptive interpolation method originally invented for rank-one factorization. Here we show how to extend the adaptive interpolation to finite-rank and even-order tensors. This requires new non-trivial ideas with respect to the current analysis in the literature. We also underline where the proof falls short when dealing with odd-order tensors.
