• Contractive Idempotents on Locally Compact Quantum Groups 

      [OWP-2012-19] Neufang, Matthias; Salmi, Pekka; Skalski, Adam; Spronk, Nico (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2012)
      A general form of contractive idempotent functionals on coamenable locally compact quantum groups is obtained, generalising the result of Greenleaf on contractive measures on locally compact groups. The image of a convolution ...
    • Positive Margins and Primary Decomposition 

      [OWP-2012-06] Kahle, Thomas; Rauh, Johannes; Sullivant, Seth (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2012)
      We study random walks on contingency tables with fixed marginals, corresponding to a (log-linear) hierarchical model. If the set of allowed moves is not a Markov basis, then there exist tables with the same marginals that ...
