Let $UT_4(F)$ be $4\times 4$ upper triangular matrix algebra over a field $F$ of characteristic zero and let $\mathcal{A}$ be the subalgebra of $UT_4(F)$ linearly generated by $\{\mathbf{e}_{ij}:1 \leq i\leq j \leq 4 \} \setminus…

Let $2\le k\le d-1$ and let $P$ and $Q$ be two convex polytopes in ${\mathbb E^d}$. Assume that their projections, $P|H$, $Q|H$, onto every $k$-dimensional subspace $H$, are congruent. In this paper we show that $P$ and $Q$ or $P$ and $-Q$…

It is shown that each integrable mapping is connected with a hierarchical completely integrable sytem of equations of evolution type which are invariant with respect to the transformation described by this mapping.

Let $n \ge 2$ be an integer. In this note, we show that the {\it oriented} transition matrices over the field $\mathcal R$ of all real numbers (over the finite field $\mathcal Z_2$ of two elements respectively) of all continuous {\it vertex…

A square matrix is said to be circular bidiagonal whenever (i) each nonzero entry is on the diagonal, or the subdiagonal, or in the top-right corner; (ii) each subdiagonal entry is nonzero, and the entry in the top-right corner is nonzero.…

A ring R is Zhou nil-clean if every element in R is the sum of two tripotents and a nilpotent that commute. Let R be a Zhou nil-clean ring. If R is 2-primal (of bounded index), we prove that every square matrix over R is the sum of two…

An identity is proven that evaluates the determinant of a block tridiagonal matrix with (or without) corners as the determinant of the associated transfer matrix (or a submatrix of it).

One considers certain degenerations of the generic symmetric matrix over a field $k$ of characteristic zero and the main structures related to the determinant $f$ of the matrix, such as the ideal generated by its partial derivatives, the…

This paper is about the study of F-transforms based on overlap and grouping maps, residual and co-residual implicator over complete lattice from both constructive and axiomatic approaches. Further, the duality, basic properties, and the…

The large variety of Fourier transforms in geometric algebras inspired the straight forward definition of ``A General Geometric Fourier Transform`` in Bujack et al., Proc. of ICCA9, covering most versions in the literature. We showed which…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a non-archimedean local field of positive characteristic different from 2. We consider distributions on $\mathrm{GL}(n+1,\mathbb{F})$ which are invariant under the adjoint action of $\mathrm{GL}(n,\mathbb{F})$. We prove…

This purpose of this paper is to prove the following result: let phi be a strictly convex, smooth, convex body in the Euclidean plane, if the intersection of n translates of phi has a non-empty interior, and all of the translates contribute…

We introduce the notion of one-sided mapping cones of positive linear maps between matrix algebras. These are convex cones of maps that are invariant under compositions by completely positive maps from either the left or right side. The…

We give classifications of linear orbits of pairs of square matrices with non-vanishing discriminant polynomials over a field in terms of certain coherent sheaves with additional data on closed subschemes of the projective line. Our results…

Equifacetal simplices, all of whose codimension one faces are congruent to one another, are studied. It is shown that the isometry group of such a simplex acts transitively on its set of vertices, and, as an application, equifacetal…

For any $n\ge 2$ and fixed $k\ge 1$, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for an arbitrary nonzero square matrix in the matrix ring $\mathbb{M}_n(\mathbb{F})$ to be written as a sum of an invertible matrix $U$ and a nilpotent matrix…

Let F be either R or C. Consider the standard embedding GL(n,F)<GL(n+1,F) and the action of GL(n,F) on GL(n+1,F) by conjugation. In this paper we show that any GL(n,F)-invariant distribution on GL(n+1,F) is invariant with respect to…

We provide a complete structure theorem for involutory matrices. This yields a new approach to principal angles between subspaces and provide a series of nice formulae for these angles.

Permutation rational functions over finite fields have attracted high interest in recent years. However, only a few of them have been exhibited. This article studies a class of permutation rational functions constructed using trace maps on…

Given a function on diagonal matrices, there is a unique way to extend this to an invariant (by conjugation) function on symmetric matrices. We show that the extension preserves regularity -- that is, if the original function is k times…
