Matrix semigroups whose ring commutators have real spectra are realizable

Abstract

We study matrix semigroups in which ring commutators have real spectra. We prove that irreducible semigroups with this property are simultaneously similar to semigroups of real-entried matrices. We also obtain a structure theorem for compact groups satisfying the property under investigation.
