For a domain $\Omega$ in the complex plane, we consider the domain $S_n(\Omega)$ consisting of those $n\times n$ complex matrices whose spectrum is contained in $\Omega$. Given a holomorphic self-map $\Psi$ of $S_n(\Omega)$ such that…

For a positive integer $n$, let $M_n$ be the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Suppose $\|\cdot\|$ is the Ky Fan $k$-norm with $1 \le k \le mn$ or the Schatten $p$-norm with $1 \le p \le \infty$ ($p\ne 2$) on $M_{mn}$, where $m,n\ge 2$…

In this article we prove that a semialgebraic map is a branched covering if and only if its associated spectral map is a branched covering. In addition, such spectral map has a neat behavior with respect to the branching locus, the…

Let ${\bf M}_n(\mathbb{F})$ be the algebra of $n\times n$ matrices over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$. We consider linear maps $\Phi: {\bf M}_n(\mathbb{F}) \rightarrow {\bf M}_r(\mathbb{F})$ preserving matrices annihilated by a fixed…

Let $\mathcal{A}_1$ and $\mathcal{A}_2$ be standard operator algebras on complex Banach spaces $X_1$ and $X_2$, respectively. For $k\geq2$, let $(i_1,...,i_m)$ be a sequence with terms chosen from $\{1,\ldots,k\}$, and assume that at least…

We analyze invariant measures of two coupled piecewise linear and everywhere expanding maps on the synchronization manifold. We observe that though the individual maps have simple and smooth functions as their stationary densities, they…

Let $A$ and $B$ be unital semisimple commutative Banach algebras and $T$ a map from the invertible group $A^{-1}$ onto $B^{-1}$. Linearity and multiplicativity of the map are not assumed. We consider the hypotheses on $T$: (1) $\sigma…

Let $\mathfrak{R}$ and $\mathfrak{R}'$ be two associative rings (not necessarily with the identity elements). A bijective map $\varphi$ of $\mathfrak{R}$ onto $\mathfrak{R}'$ is called a \textit{$m$-multiplicative isomorphism} if {$\varphi…

Let $H:M_m\to M_m$ be a holomorphic function of the algebra $M_m$ of complex $m\times m$ matrices. Suppose that $H$ is orthogonally additive and orthogonally multiplicative on self-adjoint elements. We show that either the range of $H$…

Let $B(H)$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on an infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space $H$. For $T \in B(H)$ and $\lambda \in \mathbb{C}$, let $H_{T}(\{\lambda\})$ denotes the local spectral subspace of $T$ associated…

We give sufficient conditions for a positive stochastic matrix to be similar and strong shift equivalent over $\mathbb{R}_+$ to a positive doubly stochastic matrix through matrices of the same size. We also prove that every positive…

Persistent homology is constrained to purely topological persistence while multiscale graphs account only for geometric information. This work introduces persistent spectral theory to create a unified low-dimensional multiscale paradigm for…

We investigate the properties of uniform doubly stochastic random matrices, that is non-negative matrices conditioned to have their rows and columns sum to 1. The rescaled marginal distributions are shown to converge to exponential…

We prove that continuous spectrum- and commutativity-preserving maps to $\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ from the space of normal (real or complex) $n\times n$, $n\ge 3$ matrices with spectra contained in a given continuous-injection interval…

Given a real, symmetric matrix S, we define the slice through S as being the connected component containing S of two orbits under conjugation: the first by the orthogonal group, and the second by the upper triangular group. We describe some…

An element of the algebra $M_n(\mathbb{F})$ of $n \times n$ matrices over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is called an involution if its square equals the identity matrix. Gustafson, Halmos, and Radjavi proved that any product of involutions in…

For a given $3 \times 3$ real matrix $A$, the eigenvalue complementarity problem relative to the Lorentz cone consists of finding a real number $\lambda$ and a nonzero vector $x \in \mathbb{R}^3$ such that $x^T(A-\lambda I)x=0$ and both $x$…

Graphs can be associated with a matrix according to some rule and we can find the spectrum of a graph with respect to that matrix. Two graphs are cospectral if they have the same spectrum. Constructions of cospectral graphs help us…

This work characterizes the general form of a bijective linear map $\Psi:\mathscr{M}_n(\mathbb{C}) \to \mathscr{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ such that $[\Psi(A_1),~\Psi(A_2)]=D_2$ whenever $[A_1,~A_2]=D_1$ where $D_1~\text{and}~D_2$ are fixed…

Given a linear map $\Phi : M_n \rightarrow M_m$, its multiplicity maps are defined as the family of linear maps $\Phi \otimes \text{id}_k : M_n \otimes M_k \rightarrow M_m \otimes M_k$, where $\text{id}_k$ denotes the identity on $M_k$. Let…
