Every (left) linear function on a subspace of a finite-dimensional vector space over a (skew) field can be extended to a (left) linear function on the whole space. This paper explores the extent to what this basic fact of linear algebra is…
A vector space is commonly defined as a set that satisfies several conditions related to addition and scalar multiplication. However, for beginners, it may be hard to immediately grasp the essence of these conditions. There are probably a…
In this note we make use of some properties of vector fields on a manifold to give an alternate proof to [3] for the equivalence between connections and parallel transport on vector bundles over manifolds. Out of the proof will emerge a new…
The notions of length of a vector field and cosine of the angle between two vector fields over a differentiable manifold with contravariant and covariant affine connections and metrics are introduced and considered. The change of the length…
It is shown that, under some natural assumptions, the tensor product of differentially smooth algebras and the skew-polynomial rings over differentially smooth algebras are differentially smooth.
We construct the space of vector fields on a generic quantum group. Its elements are products of elements of the quantum group itself with left invariant vector fields. We study the duality between vector fields and 1-forms and generalize…
Dimension-varying linear systems are investigated. First, a dimension-free state space is proposed. A cross dimensional distance is constructed to glue vectors of different dimensions together to form a cross-dimensional topological space.…
Frames for Hilbert spaces are interesting for mathematicians but also important for applications e.g. in signal analysis and in physics. Both in mathematics and physics it is natural to consider a full scale of spaces, and not only a single…
In this note we develop a coalgebraic approach to the study of solutions of linear difference equations over modules and rings. Some known results about linearly recursive sequences over base fields are generalized to linearly (bi)recursive…
We generalize the notion of cyclic codes by using generator polynomials in (non commutative) skew polynomial rings. Since skew polynomial rings are left and right euclidean, the obtained codes share most properties of cyclic codes. Since…
We exhibit a set of generating relations for the modular invariant ring of a vector and a covector for the two-dimensional general linear group over a finite field.
In this paper, we develop a representation-theoretic formulation of discrete-time linear systems. We show that such systems are naturally viewed as representations of time groups acting on vector spaces, thereby endowing the state space…
We initiate the study of convex geometry over ordered hyperfields. We define convex sets and halfspaces over ordered hyperfields, presenting structure theorems over hyperfields arising as quotients of fields. We prove hyperfield analogues…
The tools, ideas, and insights from linear algebra, abstract algebra, and functional analysis can be extremely useful to signal processing and system theory in various areas of engineering, science, and social science including…
We use the notion of isomorphism between two invariant vector fields to shed new light on the issue of linearization of an invariant vector field near a relative equilibrium. We argue that the notion is useful in understanding the passage…
In analogy to valued fields, we study model-theoretic properties of valued vector spaces with variable base field by proving transfer principles down to the skeleton and down to the value set and base field. For instance, we give a formula…
For a linear difference equation with the coefficients being computable sequences, we establish algorithmic undecidability of the problem of determining the dimension of the solution space including the case when some additional prior…
By a theorem of Chevalley the image of a morphism of varieties is a constructible set. The algebraic version of this fact is usually stated as a result on "extension of specializations" or "lifting of prime ideals". We present a difference…
Covariance is a useful property for handling supergravity theories. In this paper, we prove a covariance property of supergravity field equations: under reasonable conditions, field equations of supergravity are covariant modulo other field…
It is well known that the full matrix ring over a skew-field is a simple ring. We generalize this theorem to the case of semirings. We characterize the case when the matrix semiring $\mathbf{M}_n(S)$, of all $n\times n$ matrices over a…
