We investigate max-algebraic (tropical) one-sided systems $A\otimes x=b$ where $b$ is an eigenvector and $x$ lies in an interval $X$. A matrix $A$ is said to have $X$-simple image eigencone associated with an eigenvalue $\lambda$, if any…

It is known that the norm map N_G for a finite group G acting on a ring R is surjective if and only if for every elementary abelian subgroup E of G the norm map N_E for E is surjective. Equivalently, there exists an element x_G in R with…
