Extensions of Modules over Schur Algebras, Symmetric Groups and Hecke Algebras

We study the relation between the cohomology of general linear and symmetric groups and their respective quantizations, using Schur algebras and standard homological techniques to build appropriate spectral sequences. As our methods fit inside a much more general context within the theory of finite-dimensional algebras, we develop our results first in that general setting, and then specialize to the above situations. From this we obtain new proofs of several known results in modular representation theory of symmetric groups. Moreover, we reduce certain questions about computing extensions for symmetric groups and Hecke algebras to questions about extensions for general linear groups and their quantizations.     

Optimal pricing for a heterogeneous portfolio for a given risk factor and convex distance measure

Consider a portfolio containing heterogeneous risks. The premiums of the policyholders might not cover the amount of the payments which an insurance company pays the policyholders. When setting the premium, this risk has to be taken into consideration. On the other hand the premium that the insured pays has to be fair. This fairness is measured by a function of the difference between the risk and the premium paid—we call this function a distance function. For a given small probability of insolvency, we find the premium for each class, such that the distance function is minimized. Next we formulate and solve the dual problem, which is minimizing the insolvency probability under the constraint that the distance function does not exceed a given level. This paper generalizes a previous paper [Zaks, Y., Frostig, E., Levikson, B., 2006. Optimal pricing of a heterogeneous portfolio for a given risk level. Astin Bull. 36 (1), 161–185] where only a square distance function was considered.     

q-positive definiteness and related operators

We are in progress of extending the family of ‘q-deformed operators’ considered in the previous papers by joining to them q-subnormal as well as q-formally subnormal ones. It turns out that q-positive definiteness, a notion generalizing Halmos' standard positive definiteness of bounded subnormal operators, is likewise central for our new scheme.

广义Schur补的广义逆

对四分块矩阵A=A(︿) A(︿,︿′)A(︿′,︿) A(︿′)来说 ,如果 A和 A(︿)都是非奇异的 ,则A- 1 (︿′) =(A/︿) - 1 ,这里 A/ ︿=A(︿′) -A(︿′,︿) A(︿) - 1 A(︿,︿′)是 A(︿)在 A中的 Schur补 .王伯英教授指出上述等式 ,对半正定的 Hermitian矩阵而言 ,一般也是不能推广到 Moore-Penrose逆上去的 .在某些限制条件下 ,我们证明了广义逆的主子矩阵与广义 Schur补的关系是密切的 ,它使经典结果成为特例     

A new framework for implicit restarting of the Krylov–Schur algorithm

This paper introduces a new framework for implicit restarting of the Krylov–Schur algorithm. It is shown that restarting with arbitrary polynomial filter is possible by reassigning some of the eigenvalues of the Rayleigh quotient through a rank‐one correction, implemented using only the elementary transformations (translation and similarity) of the Krylov decomposition. This framework includes the implicitly restarted Arnoldi (IRA) algorithm and the Krylov–Schur algorithm with implicit harmonic restart as special cases. Further, it reveals that the IRA algorithm can be turned into an eigenvalue assignment method. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Left inverses of matrices with polynomial decay

It is known that the algebra of Schur operators on ?² (namely operators bounded on both ?¹ and ?^∞) is not inverse-closed. When ?²=?²(X) where X is a metric space, one can consider elements of the Schur algebra with certain decay at infinity. For instance if X has the doubling property, then Q. Sun has proved that the weighted Schur algebra Aω(X) for a strictly polynomial weight ω is inverse-closed. In this paper, we prove a sharp result on left-invertibility of the these operators. Namely, if an operator A∈Aω(X) satisfies ‖Afp_‖?‖fp_‖, for some 1?p?∞, then it admits a left-inverse in Aω(X). The main difficulty here is to obtain the above inequality in ?². The author was both motivated and inspired by a previous work of Aldroubi, Baskarov and Krishtal (2008) [1], where similar results were obtained through different methods for X=Zd, under additional conditions on the decay.     

Schur rings over a Galois ring of odd characteristic

It is proved that any Schur ring over a Galois ring of odd characteristic is either normal, or of rank 2, or a non-trivial generalized wreath product. The normal Schur rings are characterized as a special subclass of the cyclotomic Schur rings.
