In this work we study a linear operator $f$ on a pre-euclidean space $\mathcal{V}$ by using properties of a corresponding graph. Given a basis $\B$ of $\mathcal{V}$, we present a decomposition of $\mathcal{V}$ as an orthogonal direct sum of…

Fix an integer $d \geq 0$, a field $\mathbb{F}$, and a vector space $V$ over $\mathbb{F}$ with dimension $d+1$. By a decomposition of $V$ we mean a sequence $\{V_i\}_{i=0}^d$ of $1$-dimensional subspaces of $V$ whose sum is $V$. For a…

We study the structure of certain $k$-modules $\mathbb{V}$ over linear spaces $\mathbb{W}$ with restrictions neither on the dimensions of $\mathbb{V}$ and $\mathbb{W}$ nor on the base field $\mathbb F$. A basis $\mathfrak B = \{v_i\}_{i\in…

We study the structure of certain modules $V$ over linear spaces $W$ with restrictions neither on the dimensions nor on the base field $\mathbb F$. A basis $\mathfrak B = \{v_i\}_{i\in I}$ of $V$ is called multiplicative respect to the…

Let $K$ denote a field and let $V$ denote a vector space over $K$ with finite positive dimension. We consider an ordered pair of linear transformations $A:V\to V$ and $A^*:V\to V$ that satisfy conditions (i), (ii) below. (i) There exists a…

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 $…

The goal of this paper is to generalize the theory of triangularizing matrices to linear transformations of an arbitrary vector space, without placing any restrictions on the dimension of the space or on the base field. We define a…

When the plane is pie-sliced in $n\leq 4$ parts (with nonempty interior and common vertex at the origin) our main result provides a sufficient condition for any map $L$, that is continuous and piecewise linear relatively to this slicing, to…

In this paper, we prove that the world of near-vector spaces allows us to work with non-linear problems and yet, gives access to most of the tools linear algebra has to offer. We establish some fundamental results for near-vector spaces…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and $V$ a hypersurface defined by an irreducible polynomial $f$ with coefficients in $\mathbb{K}$ . In this article we prove that an Embedded Deformation of $V$ which…

Let $X$ be a complete variety of dimension $n$ over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{K}$. Let $V_\bullet$ be a graded linear series associated to a line bundle $L$ on $X$, that is, a collection $\{V_m\}_{m\in\mathbb{N}}$ of vector…

For linear operators which factor with suitable assumptions concerning commutativity of the factors, we introduce several notions of a decomposition. When any of these hold then questions of null space and range are subordinated to the same…

Linear algebra's main concerns are sets of vectors, linear functions, subspaces, linear systems, matrices and concepts about those, such as whether the solution of linear system exists or is unique; a set of vectors is linearly independent…

Linear systems often involve, as a basic building block, solutions of equations of the form \begin{align*} A_Sx_S&+A_Px_P =0\\ A'_Sx_S & =0, \end{align*} where our primary interest might be in the vector variable $x_P.$ Usually, neither…

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…

Vertical decomposition is a widely used general technique for decomposing the cells of arrangements of semi-algebraic sets in $d$-space into constant-complexity subcells. In this paper, we settle in the affirmative a few long-standing open…
