A noncommutative Jordan algebra of a specific type is attached to any (-1,-1)-balanced Freudenthal Kantor triple system, in such a way that the triple product in this system is determined by the binary product in the algebra. Over fields of…
This paper presents a method for expressing the determinant of an N {\times} N complex block matrix in terms of its constituent blocks. The result allows one to reduce the determinant of a matrix with N^2 blocks to the product of the…
In this paper, the determinants of $n\times n$ matrices over commutative finite chain rings and over commutative finite principal ideal rings are studied. The number of $n\times n$ matrices over a commutative finite chain ring ${R}$ of a…
On the set H_n(K) of symmetric n by n matrices over the field K we can define various binary and ternary products which endow it with the structure of a Jordan algebra or a Lie or Jordan triple system. All these non-associative structures…
The impetus for this study is the work of Dumas and Rigal on the Jordanian deformation of the ring of coordinate functions on $2\times 2$ matrices. We are also motivated by current interest in birational equivalence of noncommutative rings.…
There are Jordan analogues of annihilators in Jordan algebras which are called Jordan annihilators. The present paper is devoted to investigation of those Jordan algebras every Jordan annihilator of which is generated by an idempotent as an…
We develop the theory of Hermitian Jacobi forms of lattice index, for both definite and indefinite Hermitian lattices. We also prove a theta decomposition theorem for vector-valued Jacobi forms (both in the orthogonal and Hermitian…
We propose an algorithm for determining the irreducible polynomials over finite fields, based on the use of the companion matrix of polynomials and the generalized Jordan normal form of square matrices.
Two known computation methods and one new computation method for matrix determinant over an integral domain are discussed. For each of the methods we evaluate the computation times for different rings and show that the new method is the…
An $n\times n$ nilpotent matrix $B$ is determined up to conjugacy by a partition $P_B$ of $n$, its Jordan type given by the sizes of its Jordan blocks. The Jordan type $\mathfrak D(P)$ of a nilpotent matrix in the dense orbit of the…
The typical definition of the characteristic polynomial seems totally ad hoc to me. This note gives a canonical construction of the characteristic polynomial as the minimal polynomial of a "generic" matrix. This approach works not just for…
We describe the structure of all continuous Jordan triple endomorphisms of the set $\mathbb{P}_2$ of all positive definite $2\times 2$ matrices thus completing a recent result of ours. We also mention an application concerning sorts of…
In this paper, we study the complexity of computing the determinant of a matrix over a non-commutative algebra. In particular, we ask the question, "over which algebras, is the determinant easier to compute than the permanent?" Towards…
The exceptional euclidean Jordan algebra of 3x3 hermitian octonionic matrices, appears to be tailor made for the internal space of the three generations of quarks and leptons. The maximal rank subgroup of its automorphism group F4 that…
We consider the set of $n\times n$ matrices with rational entries having numerator and denominator of size at most $H$ and obtain upper and lower bounds on the number of such matrices of a given rank and then apply them to count such…
A well-known characterization of Jordan vectors of a matrix polynomial $L(z)$ is generalized to a characterization of Jordan vectors of the operator-valued function $Q(z)$ at an eigenvalue $\alpha \in \mathbb{C}$. The results are then…
After the language of module and theirs morphisms, this short course presents matricial calculus and determinants in a commutative ring as appliction of ``remarquable identities'' in the ring of polynomials with integer coefficients with…
We study linear spaces of symmetric matrices whose reciprocal is also a linear space. These are Jordan algebras. We classify such algebras in low dimensions, and we study the associated Jordan loci in the Grassmannian.
In this work, our aim is to obtain conditions to assure polynomial approximation in Hilbert spaces $L^{2}(\mu)$, with $\mu$ a compactly supported measure in the complex plane, in terms of properties of the associated moment matrix to the…
We let $A=R/I$ be a standard graded Artinian algebra quotient of $R={\sf k}[x,y]$, the polynomial ring in two variables over a field ${\sf k}$ by an ideal $I$, and let $n$ be its vector space dimension. The Jordan type $P_\ell$ of a linear…
