We give a constructive characterization of matrices satisfying the reverse-order law for the Moore--Penrose pseudoinverse. In particular, for a given matrix $A$ we construct another matrix $B$, of arbitrary compatible size and chosen rank,…
Let A be a singular matrix of M_n(K), where K is an arbitrary field. Using canonical forms, we give a new proof that the sub-semigroup of (M_n(K),x) generated by the similarity class of A is the set of matrices of M_n(K) with a rank lesser…
Exactly integrable systems connected to semisimple algebras of second rank with an arbitrary choice of grading are presented in explicit form. General solutions of these systems are expressed in terms of matrix elements of two fundamental…
We describe the absolute retracts for the following classes of finite lattices: (1) slim semimodular lattices, (2) finite distributive lattices, and for each positive integer $n$, (3) at most $n$-dimensional finite distributive lattices.…
A matrix is called totally negative (totally non-positive) of order $k$, if all its minors of size at most $k$ are negative (non-positive). The objective of this article is to provide several novel characterizations of total negativity via…
There is a natural action of the braid group on the symmetric matrices with units on the diagonal, appearing in various fields as Singularity Theory, Frobenius Manifolds or Isomonodromic deformations of certain classes of linear…
This work introduces a new class of symmetric matrix structures, called harmonic structures, which enable the generation of all possible directed transitions $(x_i, x_{i+1})$ over a set of $n$ symbols, without internal repetitions. Unlike…
A square matrix of order n with $n\geq 2$ is called permutative matrix when all its rows (up to the frst one) are permutations of precisely its frst row. In this paper recalling spectral results for partitioned into $2$-by-$2$ symmetric…
A new problem is studied, the concept of exactness of a second order nonlinear ordinary differential equations is established. A method is constructed to reduce this class into a first order equations. If the second order equation is not…
We bring in some new notions associated with $2\times 2$ block positive semidefinite matrices. These notions concern the inequalities between the singular values of the off diagonal blocks and the eigenvalues of the arithmetic mean or…
There are well known algorithms to compute the class group of the maximal order $\mathcal{O}_K$ of a number field $K$ and the group of invertible ideal classes of a non-maximal order $R$. In this paper we explain how to compute also the…
Let $F$ be a field and $M_n(F)$ the ring of $n \times n$ matrices over $F$. Given a subset $S$ of $M_n(F)$, the null ideal of $S$ is the set of all polynomials $f$ with coefficients from $M_n(F)$ such that $f(A) = 0$ for all $A \in S$. We…
Partially ordered sets of type (k, n) are the sets such that a) cardinality of each set is n, b) dimension of each set is two, c) length of the maximal antichain in each set is k. Let \alpha_k(n) be the number of partially ordered sets of…
If $M$ is an $R$-module, we study the submodules $K\leq M$ with the property that $K$ is invariant with respect to all monomorphisms $K\rightarrow M$. Such submodules are called \textsl{strictly invariant}. For the case of $%…
Finite dimensional modular Lie superalgebras over algebraically closed fields with indecomposable Cartan matrices are classified under some technical, most probably inessential, hypotheses. If the Cartan matrix is invertible, the…
We give examples of $n \times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$ over the filed $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$ such that for almost every column vector $x \in \mathbb{K}^n$, the orbit of $x$ under the action of the semigroup generated by $A$…
We count matrices in the special linear group SL(n, Z) whose characteristic polynomials split completely over Q.
Two new matrix classes are introduced; inverse cyclic matrices and bi-diagonal south-west matrices. An interesting relation is established between these classes. Applications to two classes of inverse $Z$-matrices are provided.
A unimodular $2\times 2$ matrix with entries in a commutative $R$ is called extendable (resp.\ simply extendable) if it extends to an invertible $3\times 3$ matrix (resp.\ invertible $3\times 3$ matrix whose $(3,3)$ entry is $0$). We obtain…
We study several variants of decomposing a symmetric matrix into a sum of a low-rank positive semidefinite matrix and a diagonal matrix. Such decompositions have applications in factor analysis and they have been studied for many decades.…
