Real Nullstellensatz is a classical result from Real Algebraic Geometry. It has recently been extended to quaternionic polynomials by Alon and Paran. The aim of this paper is to extend their Quaternionic Nullstellensatz to matrix…
Sylvester equations $AX-XB=C$ have unique solutions for all $C$ when the spectra of $A$ and $B$ are disjoint. Here $A$ and $B$ are bounded operators in Banach spaces. We discuss the existence of polynomials $p$ such that the spectra of…
A linear quaternionic equation in one quaternionic variable q is of the form $a_1 q b_1+a_2 q b_2+ ... +a_m q b_m = c$, where the $a_i, b_j, c$ are given quaternionic coefficients. If introducing basis elements $\bf i, j, k$ of pure…
From the symmetry between definitions of left and right divisors in associative $D$-algebra $A$, the possibility to define quotient as $A\otimes A$-number follows. In the paper, I considered division and division with remainder. I…
A left-unilateral matrix equation is an algebraic equation of the form $$ a_0+a_1 x+a_2 x^2+... +a_n x^n=0 $$ where the coefficients $a_r$ and the unknown $x$ are square matrices of the same order and all coefficients are on the left…
The octonions are one of the four normed division algebras, together with the real, complex and quaternion number systems. The latter three hold a primary place in random matrix theory, where in applications to quantum physics they are…
Let $p$ and $q$ be polynomials with degree $2$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. In the first part of this article, we characterize the matrices that can be decomposed as $A+B$ for some pair $(A,B)$ of square matrices such that $p(A)=0$…
We consider the problem of reconstruction of an $n\times n$ matrix with coefficients depending rationally on $x\in \mathbb P^1$ from the data of: (a) its characteristic polynomial and (b) a line bundle of degree $g+n-1$, with $g$ the…
Quaternion, an extension of complex number, is the first discovered non-commutative division algebra by William Rowan Hamilton in 1843. In this article, we review the recent progress on building up the connection between the mathematical…
It is pointed out that one-component \phi^4 lattice theory in four dimensions has a non-perturbative sector which can be studied by means of an exact duality transformation of its Ising limit. This duality maps it to a membrane model. As a…
A matrix pattern is often either a sign pattern with entries in {0,+,-} or, more simply, a nonzero pattern with entries in {0,*}. A matrix pattern A is spectrally arbitrary if for any choice of a real matrix spectrum, there is a real matrix…
We show that all spin groups of non-definite, quinary quadratic forms over a field with characteristic 0 can be represented as 2 by 2 matrices with entries in an associated quaternion algebra. Over local and global fields, we further study…
We consider Brownian motion on symmetric matrices of octonions, and study the law of the spectrum. Due to the fact that the octonion algebra is nonassociative, the dimension of the matrices plays a special role. We provide two specific…
We say that a semigroup of matrices has a submultiplicative spectrum if the spectrum of the product of any two elements of the semigroup is contained in the product of the two spectra in question (as sets). In this note we explore an…
This is the first of series of talks presented at a permanent Rutgers workshop on noncommutative algebra and geometry. We study here quadratic and quadratic-linear algebras defined by factorizations of noncommutative polynomials and…
In this paper, we study three classes of subvarieties inside the variety of left-symmetric algebras. We show that these subvarieties are naturally related to some well-known varieties, such as alternative, assosymmetric and Zinbiel…
In this paper we define the basic concepts for left or right Leibniz algebras and prove some of the main results. Our proofs are often variations of the known proofs and several results seem to be new.
Let $d$ and $m$ be two distinct squarefree integers and $\mathcal{O}_K$ the ring of integers of the quadratic field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$. Denote by $ H_K(\alpha, m)$ a quaternion algebra over $K$, where $\alpha\in \mathcal{O}_K$. In…
We provide a partial classification of positive linear maps in matrix algebras which is based on a family of spectral conditions. This construction generalizes celebrated Choi example of a map which is positive but not completely positive.…
Pauli matrices are 2x2 tracefree matrices with a real diagonal and complex (complex-conjugate) off-diagonal entries. They generate the Clifford algebra Cl(3). They can be generalised by replacing the off-diagonal complex number by one…
