Let $N_n(F)$ denote the ring of strictly upper triangular matrices with entries in a field $F$ of characteristic zero and center $Z(N_n(F))$. We characterize the $2$-power commuting maps over $N_n(F)$, maps satisfying the identity…

Given a ring $R$ with center $Z(R)$, we say a linear map $f:R\rightarrow R$ is commuting if $[f(x),x]=0$ for all $x\in R$. Such a map has a standard form if there exists $\lambda\in R$ and additive $\mu:R\rightarrow Z(R)$ such that…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity $1$. We describe all matrices in $T_n(R)$ the ring of $n\times n$ upper triangular matrices over $R$ ($n\in \mathbb{N}$), and $T_{\infty}(R)$ the ring of infinite upper triangular matrices over…

Let $m,n\ge 2$ be integers. Denote by $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Let $\|\cdot\|_{(p,k)}$ be the $(p,k)$ norm on $M_{mn}$ with $1\leq k\leq mn$ and $2<p<\infty$. We show that a linear map $\phi:M_{mn}\rightarrow M_{mn}$…

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a $2$-torsion free commutative ring with unity, $X$ a locally finite pre-ordered set and $I(X,\mathcal{R})$ the incidence algebra of $X$ over $\mathcal{R}$. If $X$ consists of a finite number of connected components, in…

Recognizing when a ring is a complete matrix ring is of significant importance in algebra. It is well-known folklore that a ring $R$ is a complete $n\times n$ matrix ring, so $R\cong M_{n}(S)$ for some ring $S$, if and only if it contains a…

The present work establishes necessary and sufficient conditions for a nonlinear system with two inputs to be described by a specific triangular form. Except for some regularity conditions, such triangular form is flat. This may lead to the…

In this paper, we show that a map $\delta$ over a triangular ring $\mathcal{T}$ satisfying $\delta(ab+ba)=\delta(a)b+a \tau(b)+\delta(b)a+b\tau(a)$, for all $a,b\in \mathcal{T}$ and for some maps $\tau$ over $\mathcal{T}$ satisfying…

For a positive linear map F and a normal matrix N, we show that |F(N)| is bounded by some simple linear combinations in the unitary orbit of F(|N|). Several elegant sharp inequalities are derived, especially for the Schur product.

Let $n\geq2$ be a natural number. Let $M_n(\mathbb{K})$ be the ring of all $n \times n$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{K}$. Fix natural number $k$ satisfying $1<k\leq n$. Under a mild technical assumption over $\mathbb{K}$ we will show that…

Let $n,\alpha\geq 2$. Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field with characteristic $0$ or greater than $n$. We show that the dimension of the variety of pairs $(A,B)\in {M_n(K)}^2$, with $B$ nilpotent, that satisfy $AB-BA=A^{\alpha}$ or…

Let $f:X\times Y\times Z\longrightarrow W $ be a bounded tri-linear map on normed spaces. We say that $f$ is close-to-regular when $f^{t****s}=f^{s****t}$ and we say that $f$ is completely regular when all natural extensions are equal. In…

A square matrix is said to be circular bidiagonal whenever (i) each nonzero entry is on the diagonal, or the subdiagonal, or in the top-right corner; (ii) each subdiagonal entry is nonzero, and the entry in the top-right corner is nonzero.…

Let $\Lambda=\begin{pmatrix}A & 0 \\U & B \end{pmatrix}$ be a formal triangular matrix ring where $A,B$ are rings and $U$ is a $(B,A)$-bimodule. In this paper, we study some special classes over the formal triangular matrix ring $\Lambda$.…

We completely determine those natural numbers $n$ for which the full matrix ring $M_n(F_2)$ and the triangular matrix ring $T_n(F_2)$ over the two elements field $F_2$ are either n-torsion clean or are almost n-torsion clean, respectively.…

By the Choi matrix criteria it is easy to determine if a specific linear matrix map is completely positive, but to establish whether a linear matrix map is positive is much less straightforward. In this paper we consider classes of linear…
