We determine a basis of the (twisted) cocenter of graded affine Hecke algebras with arbitrary parameters. In this setting, we prove that the kernel of the (twisted) trace map is the commutator subspace (the Density theorem) and that the image is the space of good forms (the trace PaleyWiener theorem).

We consider a family \{\mathcal {H}^arepsilon\} _ {arepsilon> 0} of \{\mathcal {H}^arepsilon\} _ {arepsilon> 0} -periodic Schrdinger operators with \{\mathcal {H}^arepsilon\} _ {arepsilon> 0} -interactions supported on a lattice of closed compact surfaces; within a minimal period cell one has \{\mathcal {H}^arepsilon\} _ {arepsilon> 0} surfaces. We show that in the limit when \{\mathcal {H}^arepsilon\} _ {arepsilon> 0} and the interactions strengths are appropriately scaled, \{\mathcal {H}^arepsilon\} _ {arepsilon> 0} has at most \{\mathcal {H}^arepsilon\} _ {arepsilon> 0} gaps within finite intervals, and moreover, the limiting behavior of the first \{\mathcal {H}^arepsilon\} _ {arepsilon> 0} gaps can be completely controlled through a suitable choice of those surfaces and of the interactions strengths.

This paper is devoted to the study of the proximal point algorithm for solving monotone and nonmonotone nonlinear complementarity problems. The proximal point algorithm is to generate a sequence by solving subproblems that are regularizations of the original problem. After given an appropriate criterion for approximate solutions of subproblems by adopting a merit function, the proximal point algorithm is verified to have global and superlinear convergence properties. For the purpose of solving the subproblems efficiently, we introduce a generalized Newton method and show that only one Newton step is eventually needed to obtain a desired approximate solution that approximately satisfies the appropriate criterion under mild conditions. The motivations of this paper are twofold. One is analyzing the proximal point algorithm based on the generalized Fischer-Burmeister function which includes the Fischer-Burmeister function as special case, another one is trying to see if there are relativistic change on numerical performance when we adjust the parameter in the generalized Fischer-Burmeister.

We investigate a class of supersymmetric quantum mechanical theories (with two supercharges) having tensor-valued degrees of freedom which are dominated by melon diagrams in the large N limit. One motivation was to examine the interplay between supersymmetry and melonic dominance and potential implications for building toy models of holography. We find a definite tension between supersymmetry (with dynamical bosons) and melonic dominance in this class of systems. More specifically, our theories attain a low energy non-supersymmetric conformal fixed point. The origin of supersymmetry breaking lies in the need to regularize bosonic and fermionic degrees of freedom independently. We investigate various aspects of the low energy spectrum and also comment on related examples with different numbers of supercharges. Along the way we also derive some technical results for SL(2, ℝ) wavefunctions for fermionic excitations.
