Subsets of a matrix algebra over a field that are invariant under conjugation and contain the linear span of each two of their commuting elements are described. They obviously include the subsets of diagonalizable and nilpotent matrices. In…
Engineered systems naturally experience large disturbances that can disrupt desired operation because the system may fail to recover to a stable equilibrium point. It is valuable to determine the mechanism of instability when the system is…
In presence of unstable dimension variability numerical solutions of chaotic systems are valid only for short periods of observation. For this reason, analytical results for systems that exhibit this phenomenon are needed. Aiming to go one…
We study some properties of the natural action of $SL(V_0) \times...\times SL(V_p)$ on nondegenerate multidimensional complex matrices $A\in\P (V_0\otimes...\otimes V_p)$ of boundary format(in the sense of Gelfand, Kapranov and Zelevinsky);…

Randomly-assembled dynamical systems are theoretically predicted to be unstable upon crossing a critical threshold of complexity, as first shown by May. Yet, empirical complex systems exhibit remarkable stability, indicating the presence of…
