Given a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and a subspace $W$ of $V$, we consider the problem of counting linear transformations $T:W\to V$ which have prescribed invariant factors. The case $W=V$ is a…

Let $D$ be a division ring, $\mathcal V$ and $ \mathcal W$ vector spaces over $D$, and ${\mathcal L(\mathcal V,\mathcal W)}$ the ${\mathcal L(\mathcal W)}$-${\mathcal L(\mathcal V)}$ bimodule of all linear transformations from $\mathcal V$…

Two matrix vector spaces $V,W\subset \mathbb C^{n\times n}$ are said to be equivalent if $SVR=W$ for some nonsingular $S$ and $R$. These spaces are congruent if $R=S^T$. We prove that if all matrices in $V$ and $W$ are symmetric, or all…

Let $T(X)$ (resp. L(V)) be the semigroup of all transformations (resp. linear transformations) of a set $X$ (resp. vector space $V$). For a subset $Y$ of $X$ and a subsemigroup $\mathbb{S}(Y)$ of $T(Y)$, consider the subsemigroup…

Let $V$ be a vector space of dimension $N$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $T$ be a linear operator on $V$. Given an integer $m$ that divides $N$, an $m$-dimensional subspace $W$ of $V$ is $T$-splitting if $V=W\oplus TW\oplus…

Let $R$ be a semilocal principal ideal domain. Two algebraic objects over $R$ in which scalar extension makes sense (e.g. quadratic spaces) are said to be of the same genus if they become isomorphic after extending scalars to all…

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…

It is shown that each continuous transformation $h$ from Euclidean $m$-space ($m>1$) into Euclidean $n$-space that preserves the equality of distances (that is, fulfils the implication $|x-y|=|z-w|\Rightarrow|h(x)-h(y)|=|h(z)-h(w)|$) is a…

The paper deals with the problem of deciding if two finite-dimensional linear subspaces over an arbitrary field are identical up to a permutation of the coordinates. This problem is referred to as the permutation code equivalence. We show…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. We prove that if $V$ and $W$ are orthogonal $G$-representations such that $V^G=W^G=\{0\}$, then a $G$-equivariant map $S(V) \to S(W)$ exists provided that $\dim V^H \leq \dim W^H$ for any closed subgroup…

We consider all compatible topologies of an arbitrary finite-dimensional vector space over a non-trivial valuation field whose metric completion is a locally compact space. We construct the canonical lattice isomorphism between the lattice…

In this paper, given a module $W$ for a vertex operator algebra $V$ and a nonzero complex number $z$ we construct a canonical (weak) $V\otimes V$-module ${\cal{D}}_{P(z)}(W)$ (a subspace of $W^{*}$ depending on $z$). We prove that for…

Regarding the geometry of a real normed space ${\mathcal X}$, we mainly introduce a notion of approximate bisectrix-orthogonality on vectors $x, y \in {\mathcal X}$ as follows: $${x\np{\varepsilon}}_W y \mbox{if and only if}…

This paper concerns the enumeration of isomorphism classes of modules of a polynomial algebra in several variables over a finite field. This is the same as the classification of commuting tuples of matrices over a finite field up to…
