It is shown that any finite-dimensional homomorphic image of an inverse limit of nilpotent not-necessarily-associative algebras over a field is nilpotent. More generally, this is true of algebras over a general commutative ring k, with…
If n points B_1,---,B_n$ in the standard simplex \Delta_n are affinely independent, then they can span an (n-1)-simplex denoted by \Lambda=Con(B_1,---,B_n). Here \Lambda corresponds to an n*n matrix [\Lambda] whose columns are B_1,---,B_n.…
Let $\mathcal{A}=(A_{1},...,A_{n},...)$ be a finite or infinite sequence of $2\times2$ matrices with entries in an integral domain. We show that, except for a very special case, $\mathcal{A}$ is (simultaneously) triangularizable if and only…
The algebra of ${\rm GL}_n$-invariants of $m$-tuples of $n\times n$ matrices with respect to the action by simultaneous conjugation is a classical topic in case of infinite base field. On the other hand, in case of a finite field generators…
Consider the nonlinear matrix equation X-sum_{i=1}^{m}A_{i}^{*}X^{-1}A_{i}=Q. This paper shows that there exists a unique positive definite solution to the equation without any restriction on A_{i}. Three perturbation bounds for the unique…
We prove the following results: let x,y be (n,n) complex matrices such that x,y,xy have no eigenvalue in ]-infinity,0] and log(xy)=log(x)+log(y). If n=2, or if n>2 and x,y are simultaneously triangularizable, then x,y commute. In both cases…
When $A=3$, the positive integral solutions of the so-called Markoff equation $$M_A:x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = Axyz$$ can be generated from the single solution $(1,1,1)$ by the action of certain automorphisms of the hypersurface. Since Markoff's…
For any field $\mathbb{F}$ and all torison-free group $\mathbb{G}$, we prove that if $ab = 0$ for some non-zero $a, b \in \mathbb{F}[\mathbb{G}]$ such that $|supp(a)|$ $= 3$ and $a = 1 + \alpha_{1}g_{1} + \alpha_{2}g_{2}$, then $g_{1},…
We study the classification of $\mathbb{Z}$-DGAs with polynomial homology $\mathbb{F}_p[x]$ with $\lvert x \rvert >0$, motivated by computations in algebraic $K$-theory. This classification problem was left open in work of Dwyer, Greenlees,…
This paper aims to continue the studies initiated by Botha in [Linear Algebra Appl. 273 (1998), 65-82; Linear Algebra Appl. 286 (1999), 37-44; Linear Algebra Appl. 315 (2000), 1-23] by extending them to matrices over noncommutative division…
Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective variety, and $\mathcal{G}$ a locally free sheaf on $X$. We show that there is a 1-to-1 correspondence between pairs $(\Lambda,\Xi)$, where $\Lambda$ is a sheaf of almost polynomial filtered algebras…
Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity $1$. We describe all matrices in $T_n(R)$ the ring of $n\times n$ upper triangular matrices over $R$ ($n\in \mathbb{N}$), and $T_{\infty}(R)$ the ring of infinite upper triangular matrices over…
Let R_{n,d} be the ring of invariants of d-tuples of n x n matrices under the simultaneous conjugation action of the general linear group. A minimal generating system and a homogeneous system of parameters for R_{3,3} are determined.…
We introduce matrix algebra of subsets in metric spaces and we apply it to improve results of Yamauchi and Davila regarding Asymptotic Property C. Here is a representative result: Suppose $X$ is an $\infty$-pseudo-metric space and $n\ge 0$…
Let $r$ be a nonconstant noncommutative rational function in $m$ variables over an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic 0. We show that for $n$ large enough, there exists an $X\in M_n(K)^m$ such that $r(X)$ has $n$ distinct and…
The variety $ \mathrm{Sing}_{n, m} $ consists of all tuples $ X = (X_1,\ldots, X_m) $ of $ n\times n $ matrices such that every linear combination of $ X_1,\ldots, X_m $ is singular. Equivalently, $X\in\mathrm{Sing}_{n,m}$ if and only if…
This is part of an ongoing project to find a general algebraic framework for semiring theory. The structure theory of semirings is quite challenging, largely because of the lack of negation, and such basic properties such as unique…
Let $X$ be a non-singular projective threefold over an algebraically closed field of any characteristic, and let $A^2(X)$ be the group of algebraically trivial codimension 2 algebraic cycles on $X$ modulo rational equivalence with…
We answer two questions posed 1998 in the book 'Arnolds problems'. First, over any field k there is a representative system for the similarity classes of nxn-matrices which is a finite disjoint union of affine subspaces. And second, for n>1…
Given complex parameters $x$, $\nu$, $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma \notin -\mathbb{N}$, consider the infinite lower triangular matrix $\mathbf{A}(x,\nu;\alpha, \beta,\gamma)$ with elements $$ A_{n,k}(x,\nu;\alpha,\beta,\gamma) =…
