Orthogonal sets of idempotents are used to design sets of unitary matrices, known as constellations, such that the modulus of the determinant of the difference of any two distinct elements is greater than $0$. It is shown that unitary…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p >0$. We consider the variety of nilpotent pairs $(A,B)$ with $[A,B]=\lambda I$, namely the set of pairs $ X = \{ (A,B) \in M_n(k) \times M_n(k) \mid A,B \text{ nilpotent},…

We give a new and elementary proof that simultaneous similarity and simultaneous equivalence of families of matrices are invariant under extension of the ground field, a result which is non-trivial for finite fields and first appeared in a…

In this paper, we present an algebraic approach to idempotent functional analysis, which is an abstract version of idempotent analysis. The basic concepts and results are expressed in purely algebraic terms. We consider idempotent versions…

In this paper, we present and analyze methods for solving a system of linear equations over idempotent semifields. The first method is based on the pseudo-inverse of the system matrix. We then present a specific version of Cramer's rule…

We obtain criteria for when a ring with enough idempotents is left/right artinian or noetherian in terms of local criteria defined by the associated complete set of idempotents for the ring. We apply these criteria to object unital category…

Let $\Lambda$ be a finite-dimensional associative algebra over a field. A semibrick pair is a finite set of $\Lambda$-modules for which certain Hom- and Ext-sets vanish. A semibrick pair is completable if it can be enlarged so that a…

We investigate linearity of amalgams of subgroups of algebraic groups along intersections with algebraic subgroups. In the process, we establish linearity of certain "doubles" of linear groups, and obtain new examples of finitely generated…

A central question in verification is characterizing when a system has invariants of a certain form, and then synthesizing them. We say a system has a $k$ linear invariant, $k$-LI in short, if it has a conjunction of $k$ linear (non-strict)…

Let $K$ denote a field, and let $V$ denote a vector space over $K$ with finite positive dimension. We consider a pair of linear transformations $A:V\to V$ and $A^*:V\to V$ that satisfy the following two conditions: There exists a basis for…

The $2n$ dimensional manifold with two mutually commutative operators of differentiation is introduced. Nontrivial multidimensional integrable systems connected with arbitrary graded (semisimple) algebras are constructed. The general…

When doubly-affine matrices such as Latin and magic squares with a single non-zero eigenvalue are powered up they become constant matrices after a few steps. The process of compounding squares of orders m and n can then be used to generate…

Let $b$ be a non-degenerate symmetric (respectively, alternating) bilinear form on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$, over a field with characteristic different from $2$. In a previous work, we have determined the maximal possible…

Let $R=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ denote the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and $I$ be a polymatroidal ideal of $R$. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive classification of all unmixed polymatroidal ideals. This work…

Let V be a linear subspace of M_{n,p}(K) with codimension lesser than n, where K is an arbitrary field and n >=p. In a recent work of the author, it was proven that V is always spanned by its rank p matrices unless n=p=2 and K is isomorphic…

Let $R=K[x_1,...,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and $I$ be a monomial ideal generated in degree $d$. Bandari and Herzog conjectured that a monomial ideal $I$ is polymatroidal if and only if all its monomial…

By the Choi matrix criteria it is easy to determine if a specific linear matrix map is completely positive, but to establish whether a linear matrix map is positive is much less straightforward. In this paper we consider classes of linear…

A commutative associative algebra A with an identity over the field of real numbers which has a basis, where all elements are invertible, is considered in the work. Moreover, among matrixes consisting of the structure constants of A, there…

We study idempotents in intensional Martin-L\"of type theory, and in particular the question of when and whether they split. We show that in the presence of propositional truncation and Voevodsky's univalence axiom, there exist idempotents…
