Given an arbitrary field K, we reduce the determination of the singular endomorphisms $f$ of M_n(K) that stabilize GL_n(K) to the classification of n-dimensional division algebras over K. Our method, which is based upon Dieudonn\'e's…

When K is an arbitrary field, we study the affine automorphisms of M_n(K) that stabilize GL_n(K). Using a theorem of Dieudonn\'e on maximal affine subspaces of singular matrices, this is easily reduced to the known case of linear preservers…

Given an arbitrary (commutative) field K, let V be a linear subspace of M_n(K) consisting of matrices of rank lesser than or equal to some r<n. A theorem of Atkinson and Lloyd states that, if dim V>nr-r+1 and #K>r, then either all the…

For positive integers $1 \leq k \leq n$ let $M_n$ be the algebra of all $n \times n$ complex matrices and $M_n^{\le k}$ its subset consisting of all matrices of rank at most $k$. We first show that whenever $k>\frac{n}{2}$, any continuous…

Using a recent result of Bogdanov and Guterman on the linear preservers of pairs of simultaneously diagonalizable matrices, we determine all the automorphisms of the vector space M_n(R) which stabilize the set of diagonalizable matrices. To…

Let V be a linear subspace of M_{n,p}(K) with codimension lesser than n, where K is an arbitrary field and n >=p. In a recent work of the author, it was proven that V is always spanned by its rank p matrices unless n=p=2 and K is isomorphic…

Given proper cones $K_1$ and $K_2$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\mathbb{R}^m$, respectively, an $m \times n$ matrix $A$ with real entries is said to be semipositive if there exists a $x \in K_1^{\circ}$ such that $Ax \in K_2^{\circ}$, where…

Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field with at least three elements. It was recently proven that an affine subspace of M_n(K) consisting only of non-singular matrices must have a dimension lesser than or equal to n(n-1)/2. Here, we…

Let $V$ be a vector space of rectangular $n\times k$ matrices annihilating the Cullis' determinant. We show that $\dim(V) \le (n-1)k$, extending Dieudonn{\'{e}}'s result on the dimension of vector spaces of square matrices annihilating the…

Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field and L be an algebraic closure of it. Let V be a linear subspace of M_n(K), with n>2. We show that if every matrix of V has at most one eigenvalue in K, then dim V<=1+n(n-1)/2. If every matrix of V…

Let $m,n\ge 2$ be positive integers, $M_m$ the set of $m\times m$ complex matrices and $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Regard $M_{mn}$ as the tensor space $M_m\otimes M_n$. Suppose $|\cdot|$ is the Ky Fan $k$-norm with $1 \le…

We determine the group of linear transformations on a vector space $V$ that preserve a polynomial function $f$ on $V$ for several interesting pairs $(V,f)$, using the theory of semisimple algebraic groups.

Semipositive matrices (matrices that map at least one nonnegative vector to a positive vector) and minimally semipositive matrices (semipositive matrices whose no column-deleted submatrix is semipositive) are well studied in matrix theory.…

Let $m,n\ge 2$ be integers. Denote by $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Let $\|\cdot\|_{(p,k)}$ be the $(p,k)$ norm on $M_{mn}$ with $1\leq k\leq mn$ and $2<p<\infty$. We show that a linear map $\phi:M_{mn}\rightarrow M_{mn}$…

Let $V$ be the set of $n\times n$ complex or real general matrices, Hermitian matrices, symmetric matrices, positive definite (resp. semi-definite) matrices, diagonal matrices, or upper triangular matrices. Fix $k\in \mathbb{Z}\setminus…

In this paper a complete description of the linear maps $\phi:W_{n}\rightarrow W_{n}$ that preserve the Lorentz spectrum is given when $n=2$ and $W_{n}$ is the space $M_{n}$ of $n\times n$ real matrices or the subspace $S_{n}$ of $M_{n}$…

Let $1 \leq k < n$ be integers. Two $n \times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$ form a parallel pair with respect to the $k$-numerical radius $w_k$ if $w_k(A + \mu B) = w_k(A) + w_k(B)$ for some scalar $\mu$ with $|\mu| = 1$; they form a TEA…

We prove that the irreducible decomposition of the permutation representation of GL(n,q) on GL(n,q)/GL(n-m,q) stabilizes for large n. We deduce, as a consequence, a representation stability theorem for finitely generated VIC-modules.

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 $x$…

Let K be a (commutative) field with characteristic not 2, and V be a linear subspace of n by n matrices that have at most two eigenvalues in K (respectively, at most one non-zero eigenvalue in K). We prove that the dimension of V is less…
