The Askey-Wilson algebra AW (3) with three generators is shown to serve as a hidden symmetry algebra underlying the Racah and (new) generalized Clebsch-Gordan problems for the quantum algebra sl q (2). On the base of this hidden symmetry a simple method to calculate corresponding coefficients in terms of the Askey-Wilson polynomials is proposed.

We study the Adjusted Winner procedure of Brams and Taylor for dividing goods fairly between two individuals, and prove several results. In particular we show rigorously that as the differences between the two individuals become more acute they both benefit. We introduce a geometric approach which allows us to give alternate proofs of some of the Brams-Taylor results and which gives some hope f...

Introduction. Endothelial dysfunction (ED) makes a significant contribution to the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, changes vasomotor function (VF) in patients with reduction disease activity have not been studied enough. Objective – study VF RA and reduce activity, clarify role serological profile presence arterial hypertension (AH) formation dysfunction. Materials methods. ...

Let K denote a field and let V denote a vector space over K with finite positive dimension. We consider a pair of K-linear transformations A : V → V and A : V → V that satisfy the following conditions: (i) each of A,A is diagonalizable; (ii) there exists an ordering {Vi} d i=0 of the eigenspaces of A such that A Vi ⊆ Vi−1+Vi+Vi+1 for 0 ≤ i ≤ d, where V−1 = 0 and Vd+1 = 0; (iii) there exists an ...

We say that a C*-algebra A has the ‘sublattice property’ if the set P(A) of all projections in A is a sublattice of the projection lattice of its enveloping von Neumann algebra A∗∗. It is shown that this property is equivalent to the requirement that all pairs of projections have strictly positive ‘angle’. We discuss this property in relation to some results obtained by C. Akemann and by A. Laz...

Let K denote a field and let V denote a vector space over K with finite positive dimension. We consider a pair of linear transformations A : V → V and A∗ : V → V that satisfy (i)–(iv) below: (i) Each of A, A∗ is diagonalizable. (ii) There exists an ordering V0, V1, . . . , Vd of the eigenspaces of A such that A ∗Vi ⊆ Vi−1 + Vi + Vi+1 for 0 ≤ i ≤ d, where V−1 = 0, Vd+1 = 0. (iii) There exists an...

It is well known, see [D. Carlson, T. Markham, Schur complements of diagonally dominant matrices, Czech. Math. Schur complement of a strictly diagonally dominant matrix is strictly diagonally dominant , as well as its diagonal-Schur complement. Also, if a matrix is an H-matrix, then its Schur complement and diagonal-Schur complement are H-matrices, too, see [J. Liu, Y. Huang, Some properties on...
