Abstract

We say that two elements of a group or semigroup are k\Bbbk-linear conjugates if their images under any linear representation over k\Bbbk are conjugate matrices. In this paper we characterize k\Bbbk-linear conjugacy for finite semigroups (and, in particular, for finite groups) over an arbitrary field k\Bbbk.
