The Kalman variety of a linear subspace is a vector space consisting of all endomorphisms that have an eigenvector in that subspace. We resolve a conjecture of Ottaviani and Sturmfels and give the minimal defining equations of the Kalman…
The first author with B. Sturmfels studied the variety of matrices with eigenvectors in a given linear subspace, called Kalman variety. We extend that study from matrices to symmetric tensors, proving in the tensor setting the…
We study the locus of square matrices having at least one eigenvector on a prescribed algebraic variety $X$. When $X$ is a linear subspace, this data locus is known as the Kalman variety of $X$ and was studied first by Ottaviani and…
Given a subspace L of a vector space V, the Kalman variety consists of all matrices of V that have a nonzero eigenvector in L. Ottaviani and Sturmfels described minimal equations in the case that dim L = 2 and conjectured minimal equations…
We give an introduction to the theory and to some applications of eigenvectors of tensors (in other words, invariant one-dimensional subspaces of homogeneous polynomial maps), including a review of some concepts that are useful for their…
The aim of this work is to offer a solution to the problem of the classification of endomorphisms with an annihilating polynomial on arbitrary vector spaces. For these endomorphisms we provide a family of invariants that allows us to…
A problem that is frequently encountered in a variety of mathematical contexts, is to find the common invariant subspaces of a single, or set of matrices. A new method is proposed that gives a definitive answer to this problem. The key idea…
In a polydiagonal subspace of the Euclidean space, certain components of the vectors are equal (synchrony) or opposite (anti-synchrony). Polydiagonal subspaces invariant under a matrix have many applications in graph theory and dynamical…
Let us denote ${\cal V}$, the finite dimensional vector spaces of functions of the form $\psi(x) = p_n(x) + f(x) p_m(x)$ where $p_n(x)$ and $p_m(x)$ are arbitrary polynomials of degree at most $n$ and $m$ in the variable $x$ while $f(x)$…
A subspace $X$ of a vector space over a field $K$ is hyperinvariant with respect to an endomorphism $f$ of $V$ if it is invariant for all endomorphisms of $V$ that commute with $f$. We assume that $f$ is locally nilpotent, that is, every $…
We introduce a unified method for study of 2-dimensional invariant subspaces of matrices and their corresponding super-eigenvalues. As a novel application to non-commutative algebra, we present a connection between the eigenvalues of…
A complete classification of linear differential operators possessing finite-dimensional invariant subspace with a basis of monomials is presented.
The set of matrix tuples with invariant subspaces whose dimensions sum up to the dimension of the space, but which do not span the whole space form an algebraic hypersurface. We found the equation of this hypersurface. This generalizes…
In this short note, we give a new sufficient condition for a linear map from a product of copies of a field to endomorphisms of a finite dimensional vector space over the same field to be an algebra homomorphism. We expect that this result…
Kalman varieties of tensors are algebraic varieties consisting of tensors whose singular vector $k$-tuples lay on prescribed subvarieties. They were first studied by Ottaviani and Sturmfels in the context of matrices. We extend recent…
The aim of this work is to offer a family of invariants that allows us to classify finite potent endomorphisms on arbitrary vector spaces, generalizing the classification of endomorphisms on finite-dimensional vector spaces. As a particular…
Given an endomorphism A over a finite dimensional vector space having Jordan-Chevalley decomposition, the lattices of invariant and hyperinvariant subspaces of A can be obtained from the nilpotent part of this decomposition. We extend this…
Given two nilpotent endomorphisms, we determine when their lattices of hyperinvariant subspaces are isomorphic. The study of the lattice of hyperinvariant subspaces can be reduced to the nilpotent case when the endomorphism has a…
If $f$ is an endomorphism of a finite dimensional vector space over a field $K$ then an invariant subspace $X \subseteq V$ is called hyperinvariant (respectively, characteristic) if $X$ is invariant under all endomorphisms (respectively,…
Let $k$ be a field and $n,a,b$ natural numbers. A matrix pencil $P$ is given by $n$ matrices of the same size with coefficients in $k$, say by $(b\times a)$-matrices, or, equivalently, by $n$ linear transformations $\alpha_i\:k^a \to k^b$…
