Let K be an arbitrary (commutative) field with at least three elements, and let n, p and r be positive integers with r<=min(n,p). In a recent work, we have proved that an affine subspace of M_{n,p}(K) containing only matrices of rank…
Let $r$ and $n$ be positive integers such that $r<n$, and $\mathbb{K}$ be an arbitrary field. We determine the maximal dimension for an affine subspace of $n$ by $n$ symmetric (or alternating) matrices with entries in $\mathbb{K}$ and with…
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…
For every $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and every field $K$, let $N(n,K)$ be the set of the nilpotent $n \times n$ matrices over $K$ and let $D(n,K) $ be the set of the $n \times n$ matrices over $K$ which are diagonalizable over $K$. Moreover, let…
For every $m,n \in \mathbb{N}$ and every field $K$, let $M(m \times n, K)$ be the vector space of the $(m \times n)$-matrices over $K$ and let $S(n,K)$ be the vector space of the symmetric $(n \times n)$-matrices over $K$. We say that an…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, and $n \geq r>0$ be integers, with $r$ even. Denote by $\mathrm{A}_n(\mathbb{F})$ the space of all $n$-by-$n$ alternating matrices with entries in $\mathbb{F}$. We consider the problem of determining the…
Let K be a skew field, and K_0 be a subfield of the central subfield of K such that K has finite dimension q over K_0. Let V be a K_0-linear subspace of n by n nilpotent matrices with entries in K. We show that the dimension of V is bounded…
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 $A$ be a simple algebra over a field $F$. Under a mild cardinality assumption on $F$, we determine the greatest possible dimension for an $F$-affine subspace of $A$ that is included in the group of units $A^\times$, and we describe the…
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…
Let $F$ be a field, and $\mathcal{M}$ be a linear subspace of $n$-by-$n$ matrices with entries in $F$ that have at most two eigenvalues in $F$ (respectively, at most one non-zero eigenvalue in $F$). In a previous article, we have determined…
We prove a conjecture of Kleinbock which gives a clear-cut classification of all extremal affine subspaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also give an essentially complete classification of all Khintchine type affine subspaces, except for some…
Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a field, and $n \geq p \geq r>0$ be integers. In a recent article, Rubei has determined, when $\mathbb{F}$ is the field of real numbers, the greatest possible dimension for an affine subspace of $n$--by--$p$ matrices…
Let K denote a field. Given an arbitrary linear subspace V of M_n(K) of codimension lesser than n-1, a classical result states that V generates the K-algebra M_n(K). Here, we strengthen this in three ways: we show that M_n(K) is spanned by…
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…
The Amitsur-Levitski theorem asserts that $M_n(F)$ satisfies a polynomial identity of degree $2n$. (Here, $F$ is a field and $M_n(F)$ is the algebra of $n \times n$ matrices over $F$). It is easy to give examples of subalgebras of $M_n(F)$…
For every $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and every field $K$, let $A(n,K)$ be the vector space of the antisymmetric $(n \times n)$-matrices over $K$. We say that an affine subspace $S$ of $A(n,K)$ has constant rank $r$ if every matrix of $S$ has rank…
A recent generalization of Gerstenhaber's theorem on spaces of nilpotent matrices is shown to yield a new proof of the classification of linear subspaces of diagonalizable real matrices with the maximal dimension.
K be a field and let m and n be positive integers, where m does not exceed n. We say that a non-zero subspace of m x n matrices over K is a constant rank r subspace if each non-zero element of the subspace has rank r, where r is a positive…
For fields with more than $2$ elements, the classification of the vector spaces of matrices with rank at most $2$ is already known. In this work, we complete that classification for the field $\mathbb{F}_2$. We apply the results to obtain…
