We define Jordan quadruple systems by the polynomial identities of degrees 4 and 7 satisfied by the Jordan tetrad {a,b,c,d} = abcd + dcba as a quadrilinear operation on associative algebras. We find further identities in degree 10 which are…

Dual complex matrices have found applications in brain science. There are two different definitions of the dual complex number multiplication. One is noncommutative. Another is commutative. In this paper, we use the commutative definition.…

Let $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic not equal to $2$. If $n\ge 2$, we show that an arbitrary map $\phi : M_n(\mathbb{F}) \to M_n(\mathbb{F})$ is Jordan multiplicative,…

Let $J_r$ denote a full $r \times r$ Jordan block matrix with eigenvalue $1$ over a field $F$ of characteristic $p$. For positive integers $r$ and $s$ with $r \leq s$, the Jordan canonical form of the $r s \times r s$ matrix $J_{r} \otimes…

We consider a polynomial h(x,y) in two complex variables of degree n+1>1 with a generic higher homogeneous part. The rank of the first homology group of its nonsingular level curve h(x,y)=t is n*n. To each 1- form in the variable space and…

We compute the determinant of the Gram matrix of the Shapovalov form on weight spaces of the basic representation of an affine Kac-Moody algebra of ADE type (possibly twisted). As a consequence, we obtain explicit formulae for the…

Let $A$ be a set in a prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$. In this paper, we prove that $d\times d$ matrices with entries in $A$ determine almost $|A|^{3+\frac{1}{45}}$ distinct determinants and almost $|A|^{2-\frac{1}{6}}$ distinct permanents when…

The question of matrix similarity is a classical one in linear algebra. For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and some positive integer $n \in \mathbb{N}$, one may consider the following problems: 1. Given two matrices $A, B \in \mathrm{GL}(n,…

We evaluate a curious determinant, first mentioned by George Andrews in 1980 in the context of descending plane partitions. Our strategy is to combine the famous Desnanot-Jacobi-Dodgson identity with automated proof techniques. More…

We prove several evaluations of determinants of matrices, the entries of which are given by the recurrence $a_{i,j}=a_{i-1,j}+a_{i,j-1}$, or variations thereof. These evaluations were either conjectured or extend conjectures by Roland…
