A natural family of quantized matrix algebras is introduced. It includes the two best studied such. Located inside ${\s U}_q(A_{2n-1})$, it consists of quadratic algebras with the same Hilbert series as polynomials in $n^2$ variables. We…

The notion of quantum matrix pairs is defined. These are pairs of matrices with non-commuting entries, which have the same pattern of internal relations, q-commute with each other under matrix multiplication, and are such that products of…

Let $p_n$ be the maximal sum of the entries of $A^2$, where $A$ is a square matrix of size $n$, consisting of the numbers $1,2,\ldots,n^2$, each appearing exactly once. We prove that $m_n=\Theta(n^7)$. More precisely, we show that…

We study sums of $k$-potent matrices. We show the conditions by which a complex matrix $A$ can be expressed as a sums of $k$-potent matrices. Also we obtain conditions by which a complex matrix $A$ can be expressed as a sum of finite order…

Let $\F$ be the finite field of odd prime power order $q$, We find explicit expressions for the number of triples $\{\al-1,\al,\al+1 \}$ of consecutive non-zero squares in $\F$ and similarly for the number of triples of consecutive…

Let L be a restricted Lie superalgebra with its enveloping algebra u(L) over a field F of characteristic p>2. A polynomial identity is called non-matrix if it is not satisfied by the algebra of 2\times 2 matrices over F. We characterize L…

Following Benjamin et al., a matrix with entries being sums of two neighbouring Catalan numbers is considered. Its LU-decomposition is given, by guessing the results and later prove it by computer algebra, with lots of human help.…

In this article, we give the most genaral form of the quaternions algebra depending on 3-parameters. We define 3-parameter generalized quaternions (3PGQs) and study on various properties and applications. Firstly we present the definiton,…

We count matrices in the special linear group SL(n, Z) whose characteristic polynomials split completely over Q.

In this paper, a matrix is said to be prime if the row and column of this matrix are both prime numbers. We establish various necessary and sufficient conditions for developing matrices into the sum of tensor products of prime matrices. For…

The linear spaces that are fixed by a given nilpotent $n \times n$ matrix form a subvariety of the Grassmannian. We classify these varieties for small $n$. Mutiah, Weekes and Yacobi conjectured that their radical ideals are generated by…

The main result of the note describes certain optimal-score partitions, which can be interpreted as optimal resource allocations. This result is based on the fact that any nonnegative square matrix whose column sums are the same as the…

We prove that every nonderogatory matrix $A$ over a field of positive odd characteristic $p,$ that is sum of a $p$-potent matrix and a nilpotent matrix, has a decomposition $A=E+V,$ such that $E^p=E,$ and $V^3=0.$

The review of modern study of algebraic, geometric and differential properties of quaternionic (Q) numbers with their applications. Traditional and "tensor" formulation of Q-units with their possible representations are discussed and groups…

By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…

Let L be a restricted Lie superalgebra with its restricted enveloping algebra u(L) over a field F of characteristic p>2. A polynomial identity is called non-matrix if it is not satisfied by the algebra of 2\times 2 matrices over F. We…

Given a matrix $M = (a_{i,j})$ a square is a $2 \times 2$ submatrix with entries $a_{i,j}$, $a_{i, j+s}$, $a_{i+s, j}$, $a_{i+s, j +s}$ for some $s \geq 1$, and a zero-sum square is a square where the entries sum to $0$. Recently,…

We present a formula for the trace of any symmetric power of a $n\times n$ matrix (with coefficients in a field) in terms of the ordinary powers of the matrix, an arbitrarily chosen linear function which vanishes on the identity matrix, and…

For any 4-variate quartic form $f\geq 0$ (i.e. $f$ nonnegative, homogeneous polynomial of degree $4$ with real coefficients) there exist quadratic forms $q$ and $q'$ so that $qq'f$ is a sum of squares (s.o.s.) of quartics, by reducing to…

Let the columns of a $p \times q$ matrix $M$ over any ring be partitioned into $n$ blocks, $M = [M_1, ..., M_n]$. If no $p \times p$ submatrix of $M$ with columns from distinct blocks $M_i$ is invertible, then there is an invertible $p…
