Quaternion Zernike Spherical Polynomials
MATHEMATICS OF COMPUTATION Volume 84, Number 293, May 2015, Pages 1317–1337 S 0025-5718(2014)02888-3 Article electronically published on August 29, 2014 QUATERNION ZERNIKE SPHERICAL POLYNOMIALS J. MORAIS AND I. CAC¸ AO˜ Abstract. Over the past few years considerable attention has been given to the role played by the Zernike polynomials (ZPs) in many different fields of geometrical optics, optical engineering, and astronomy. The ZPs and their applications to corneal surface modeling played a key role in this develop- ment. These polynomials are a complete set of orthogonal functions over the unit circle and are commonly used to describe balanced aberrations. In the present paper we introduce the Zernike spherical polynomials within quater- nionic analysis ((R)QZSPs), which refine and extend the Zernike moments (defined through their polynomial counterparts). In particular, the underlying functions are of three real variables and take on either values in the reduced and full quaternions (identified, respectively, with R3 and R4). (R)QZSPs are orthonormal in the unit ball. The representation of these functions in terms of spherical monogenics over the unit sphere are explicitly given, from which several recurrence formulae for fast computer implementations can be derived. A summary of their fundamental properties and a further second or- der homogeneous differential equation are also discussed. As an application, we provide the reader with plot simulations that demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. (R)QZSPs are new in literature and have some consequences that are now under investigation. 1. Introduction 1.1. The Zernike spherical polynomials. The complex Zernike polynomials (ZPs) have long been successfully used in many different fields of optics. -

On the Solutions of Linear Matrix Quaternionic Equations and Their Systems
Mathematica Aeterna, Vol. 6, 2016, no. 6, 907 - 921 On The Solutions of Linear Matrix Quaternionic Equations and Their Systems Ahmet Ipek_ Department of Mathematics Faculty of Kamil Ozda˘gScience¨ Karamano˘gluMehmetbey University Karaman, Turkey [email protected] Cennet Bolat C¸imen Ankara Chamber of Industry 1st Organized Industrial Zone Vocational School Hacettepe University Ankara, Turkey [email protected] Abstract In this paper, our main aim is to investigate the solvability, exis- tence of unique solution, closed-form solutions of some linear matrix quaternion equations with one unknown and of their systems with two unknowns. By means of the arithmetic operations on matrix quater- nions, the linear matrix quaternion equations that is considered herein could be converted into four classical real linear equations, the solu- tions of the linear matrix quaternion equations are derived by solving four classical real linear equations based on the inverses and general- ized inverses of matrices. Also, efficiency and accuracy of the presented method are shown by several examples. Mathematics Subject Classification: 11R52; 15A30 Keywords: The systems of equations; Quaternions; Quaternionic Sys- tems. 1 Introduction The quaternion and quaternion matrices play a role in computer science, quan- tum physics, signal and color image processing, and so on (e.g., [1, 17, 22]. 908 Ahmet Ipek_ and Cennet Bolat C¸imen General properties of quaternion matrices can be found in [29]. Linear matrix equations are often encountered in many areas of computa- tional mathematics, control and system theory.

The so-called quaternionic analysis is a theory analogous to complex analysis but the complex numbers are replaced by the non-commutative 4-dimensional field H of quaternions. A role of holomorphic functions in quaternionic analysis is played by monogenic functions. In this note we extend the notion of monogeneity to functions defined on fine domains in R4, i.e., domains in the fine topology of classical potential theory In fact, we generalize to some extent Fuglede's theory of finely holomorphic functions for dimension 4. 1. INTRODUCTION At the beginning of the twentieth century E. Borel tried to extend holomorphic functions to more general domains (no longer open) in such a way that the unique continuation property was preserved, see [3]. -
Perturbation Analysis of Matrices Over a Quaternion Division Algebra∗

In this paper, we present the concept of perturbation bounds for the right eigenvalues of a quaternionic matrix. In particular, a Bauer-Fike-type theorem for the right eigenvalues of a diagonalizable quaternionic matrix is derived. In addition, perturbations of a quaternionic matrix are discussed via a block-diagonal decomposition and the Jordan canonical form of a quaternionic matrix. The location of the standard right eigenvalues of a quaternionic matrix and a sufficient condition for the stability of a perturbed quaternionic matrix are given. As an application, perturbation bounds for the zeros of quaternionic polynomials are derived. Finally, we give numerical examples to illustrate our results.

Introduction. The goal of this paper is the derivation of a Bauer-Fike-type theorem for the right eigenvalues and a perturbation analysis for quaternionic matrices, as well as a specification of the location of the right eigenvalues of a perturbed quaternionic matrix and perturbation bounds for the zeros of quaternionic polynomials. The Bauer-Fike theorem is a standard result in the perturbation theory for diagonalizable matrices over the complex −1 field. The theorem states that if A 2 Mn(C) is a diagonalizable matrix, with A = XDX , and A + E is a perturbed matrix, then an upper bound for the distance between a point µ 2 Λ(A + E) and the spectrum Λ(A) is given by [4] (1.1) min jµ − λj ≤ κ(X)kEk: λ2Λ(A) Here, κ(X) = kXkkX−1k is the condition number of the matrix X. -
Implications for Understanding the Role of Affect in Mathematical Thinking
Mathematicians and music: Implications for understanding the role of affect in mathematical thinking Rena E. Gelb Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2021 © 2021 Rena E. Gelb All Rights Reserved Abstract Mathematicians and music: Implications for understanding the role of affect in mathematical thinking Rena E. Gelb The study examines the role of music in the lives and work of 20th century mathematicians within the framework of understanding the contribution of affect to mathematical thinking. The current study focuses on understanding affect and mathematical identity in the contexts of the personal, familial, communal and artistic domains, with a particular focus on musical communities. The study draws on published and archival documents and uses a multiple case study approach in analyzing six mathematicians. The study applies the constant comparative method to identify common themes across cases. The study finds that the ways the subjects are involved in music is personal, familial, communal and social, connecting them to communities of other mathematicians. The results further show that the subjects connect their involvement in music with their mathematical practices through 1) characterizing the mathematician as an artist and mathematics as an art, in particular the art of music; 2) prioritizing aesthetic criteria in their practices of mathematics; and 3) comparing themselves and other mathematicians to musicians. The results show that there is a close connection between subjects’ mathematical and musical identities. I identify eight affective elements that mathematicians display in their work in mathematics, and propose an organization of these affective elements around a view of mathematics as an art, with a particular focus on the art of music. -
Quaternions and Quantum Theory
Quaternions and Quantum Theory by Matthew A. Graydon A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Science in Physics Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2011 c Matthew A. Graydon 2011 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract The orthodox formulation of quantum theory invokes the mathematical apparatus of complex Hilbert space. In this thesis, we consider a quaternionic quantum formalism for the description of quantum states, quantum channels, and quantum measurements. We prove that probabilities for outcomes of quaternionic quantum measurements arise from canonical inner products of the corresponding quaternionic quantum effects and a unique quaternionic quantum state. We embed quaternionic quantum theory into the framework of usual complex quantum information theory. We prove that quaternionic quantum measurements can be simulated by usual complex positive operator valued measures. Furthermore, we prove that quaternionic quantum channels can be simulated by completely positive trace preserving maps on complex quantum states. We also derive a lower bound on an orthonormality measure for sets of positive semi-definite quaternionic linear operators. We prove that sets of operators saturating the aforementioned lower bound facilitate a reconciliation of quaternionic quantum theory with a generalized Quantum Bayesian framework for reconstructing quantum state spaces. This thesis is an extension of work found in [42]. iii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to deeply thank my supervisor, Dr. -

QUATERNIONIC QUASIDETERMINANTS AND DETERMINANTS Israel Gelfand, Vladimir Retakh, Robert Lee Wilson Introduction Quasideterminants of noncommutative matrices introduced in [GR, GR1] have proved to be a powerfull tool in basic problems of noncommutative algebra and geometry (see [GR, GR1-GR4, GKLLRT, GV, EGR, EGR1, ER,KL, KLT, LST, Mo, Mo1, P, RS, RRV, Rsh, Sch]). In general, the quasideterminants of matrix A =(aij) are rational functions in (aij)’s. The minimal number of successive inver- sions required to express an rational function is called the height of this function. The ”inversion height” is an important invariant showing a degree of ”noncommu- tativity”. In general, the height of the quasideterminants of matrices of order n equals n−1 (see [Re]). Quasideterminants are most useful when, as in commutative case, their height is less or equal to 1. Such examples include quantum matrices and their generalizations, matrices of differential operators, etc. (see [GR, GR1-GR4, ER]). Quasideterminants of quaternionic matrices A = (aij) provide a closely related example. They can be written as a ratio of polynomials in aij’s and their conju- gates. In fact, our Theorem 3.3 shows that any quasideterminant of A is a sum of monomials in the aij’s and thea ¯ij’s with real coefficients. The theory of quasideterminants leads to a natural definition of determinants of square matrices over noncommutative rings. There is a long history of attempts to develop such a theory. These works have resulted in a number of useful generalizations of determinants to special classes arXiv:math/0206211v1 [math.QA] 20 Jun 2002 of noncommutative rings, e.g. -
Fundamental Theorems in Mathematics
SOME FUNDAMENTAL THEOREMS IN MATHEMATICS OLIVER KNILL Abstract. An expository hitchhikers guide to some theorems in mathematics. Criteria for the current list of 243 theorems are whether the result can be formulated elegantly, whether it is beautiful or useful and whether it could serve as a guide [6] without leading to panic. The order is not a ranking but ordered along a time-line when things were writ- ten down. Since [556] stated “a mathematical theorem only becomes beautiful if presented as a crown jewel within a context" we try sometimes to give some context. Of course, any such list of theorems is a matter of personal preferences, taste and limitations. The num- ber of theorems is arbitrary, the initial obvious goal was 42 but that number got eventually surpassed as it is hard to stop, once started. As a compensation, there are 42 “tweetable" theorems with included proofs. More comments on the choice of the theorems is included in an epilogue. For literature on general mathematics, see [193, 189, 29, 235, 254, 619, 412, 138], for history [217, 625, 376, 73, 46, 208, 379, 365, 690, 113, 618, 79, 259, 341], for popular, beautiful or elegant things [12, 529, 201, 182, 17, 672, 673, 44, 204, 190, 245, 446, 616, 303, 201, 2, 127, 146, 128, 502, 261, 172].
