First-Order Projected Algorithms With the Same Linear Convergence Rate Bounds as Their Unconstrained Counterparts
In this paper, we propose a systematic approach for constructing first-order projected algorithms for optimization problems with general set constraints, building upon their unconstrained counterparts. We show that these projected algorithms retain the same linear convergence rate bounds, when the latter are obtained for the unconstrained algorithms via quadratic Lyapunov functions arising from integral quadratic constraint (IQC) characterizations. The projected algorithms are constructed by ap…

Spin-dependent transport through edge states in 2D semi-Dirac materials with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and band inversion
We investigate the bulk-boundary correspondence in two-dimensional type-I semi-Dirac materials with band inversion and Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Employing a dimensional reduction framework, we identify the Zak phase along the quadratically dispersing direction as a topological invariant that captures the presence of edge states. In the non-trivial topological regime, systems with finite width exhibit energy-dependent edge states that are topologically protected only at specific momenta. At kx…

Pfister's local-global principle for Azumaya algebras with involution
We prove Pfister's local-global principle for hermitian forms over Azumaya algebras with involution over semilocal rings, and show in particular that the Witt group of nonsingular hermitian forms is $2$-primary torsion. Our proof relies on a hermitian version of Sylvester's law of inertia, which is obtained from an investigation of the connections between a pairing of hermitian forms extensively studied by Garrel, signatures of hermitian forms, and positive semidefinite quadratic forms.
