A matrix $T \in \M_n(\C)$ is \emph{UECSM} if it is unitarily equivalent to a complex symmetric (i.e., self-transpose) matrix. We develop several techniques for studying this property in dimensions three and four. Among other things, we…

The maximal graded subalgebras for four families of Lie superalgebras of Cartan type over a field of prime characteristic are studied. All maximal reducible graded subalgebras are described completely and their isomorphism classes,…

Sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of a vector with a one-dimensional or simple three-dimensional stationary subalgebra for an irreducible compact linear Lie algebra.

For a nonsingular integer matrix A, we study the growth of the order of A modulo N. We say that a matrix is exceptional if it is diagonalizable, and a power of the matrix has all eigenvalues equal to powers of a single rational integer, or…

Principal matrices of a numerical semigroup of embedding dimension n are special types of $n \times n$ matrices over integers of rank $\leq n - 1$. We show that such matrices and even the pseudo principal matrices of size n must have rank…

Let V be a vector space of dimension n over a field K and let Symm(V) denote the space of symmetric bilinear forms defined on V x V. Let M be a subspace of Symm(V). We investigate a variety of hypotheses concerning the rank of elements in M…

Let $K$ be any field, let $L_n$ denote the Leavitt algebra of type $(1,n-1)$ having coefficients in $K$, and let ${\rm M}_d(L_n)$ denote the ring of $d \times d$ matrices over $L_n$. In our main result, we show that ${\rm M}_d(L_n) \cong…

The fundamental matrix and trifocal tensor are convenient algebraic representations of the epipolar geometry of two and three view configurations, respectively. The estimation of these entities is central to most reconstruction algorithms,…

Quantitative estimates related to the classical Borsuk problem of splitting set in Euclidean space into subsets of smaller diameter are considered. For a given $k$ there is a minimal diameter of subsets at which there exists a covering with…

Based on the fact that every finite-dimensional algebra over a field is isomorphic to the centralizer of \textbf{two} matrices, we approach the representation theory of finite-dimensional algebras over fields by centralizers of matrices.…

The maximal subalgebras of the finite dimensional simple special Jordan superalgebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 are studied. This is a continuation of a previous paper by the same authors about maximal…

An $n\times n$ complex matrix $A$ is called coninvolutory if $\bar AA=I_n$ and skew-coninvolutory if $\bar AA=-I_n$ (which implies that $n$ is even). We prove that each matrix of size $n\times n$ with $n>1$ is a sum of 5 coninvolutory…

In this paper, we use elementary method to give a classification of the multiplicative maps on matrix algebra $M_{n}(\mF)$ over a field $\mF$ of characteristic $0$. All the multiplicative maps are classified into three classes: the trivial…

In 1963, Halin and Jung proved that every simple graph with minimum degree at least four has $K_5$ or $K_{2,2,2}$ as a minor. Mills and Turner proved an analog of this theorem by showing that every $3$-connected binary matroid in which…

Let $r$ and $n$ be positive integers such that $r<n$, and $\mathbb{K}$ be an arbitrary field. In a recent work, we have determined the maximal dimension for a linear subspace of $n$ by $n$ symmetric matrices with rank less than or equal to…

An $n \times m$ non-negative matrix with row sum $m$ and column sum $n$ is called doubly stochastic. We answer the problem of finding doubly stochastic matrices of smallest posible support for every $1 <n \leq m$. Any matrix of minimum…
