Under the action of the general linear group with tensor structure, the ranks of matrices $A$ and $B$ forming an $m \times n$ pencil $A + \lambda B$ can change, but in a restricted manner. Specifically, with every pencil one can associate a…

We give a method for constructing a regularizing decomposition of a matrix pencil, which is formulated in terms of the linear mappings. We prove that two pencils are topologically equivalent if and only if their regularizing decompositions…

Matrix polynomials given in an orthogonal basis are considered. Following the ideas of Mackey et al. "Vector spaces of Linearizations for Matrix Polynomials" (2006), the vec- tor spaces, called M1(P), M2(P) and DM(P), of potential…

We show that the set of $n \times n$ complex symmetric matrix pencils of rank at most $r$ is the union of the closures of $\lfloor r/2\rfloor +1$ sets of matrix pencils with some, explicitly described, complete eigenstructures. As a…

Bundles of matrix pencils (under strict equivalence) are sets of pencils having the same Kronecker canonical form, up to the eigenvalues (namely, they are an infinite union of orbits under strict equivalence). The notion of bundle for…

We elaborate on the deviation of the Jordan structures of two linear relations that are finite-dimensional perturbations of each other. We compare their number of Jordan chains of length at least $n$. In the operator case, it was recently…

We prove that, given two matrix pencils $L$ and $M$, if $M$ belongs to the closure of the orbit of $L$ under strict equivalence, then the dimension of the orbit of $M$ is smaller than or equal to the dimension of the orbit of $L$, and the…

The main purpose of this article is to show that the numerical range of a linear pencil $\lambda A + B$ is equal to $\mathbb{C}$ if and only if $0$ belongs to the convex hull of the joint numerical range of $A$ and $B$. We also prove that…

In our earlier posting "Matrix Pencils and Entanglement Classification", arXiv:0911.1803, we gave a polynomial-time algorithm for deciding if two states in a space of dimension $2\otimes m\otimes n$ are SLOCC equivalent. In this note, we…

Let $n_1,\ldots,n_k $ be integers larger than or equal to 2. We characterize linear maps $\phi: M_{n_1\cdots n_k}\rightarrow M_{n_1\cdots n_k}$ such that $${\mathrm rank}\,(\phi(A_1\otimes \cdots \otimes…

We consider two group actions on $m$-tuples of $n \times n$ matrices. The first is simultaneous conjugation by $\operatorname{GL}_n$ and the second is the left-right action of $\operatorname{SL}_n \times \operatorname{SL}_n$. We give…

In this paper, we study pure state entanglement in systems of dimension $2\otimes m\otimes n$. Two states are considered equivalent if they can be reversibly converted from one to the other with a nonzero probability using only local…

The relationship between linear relations and matrix pencils is investigated. Given a linear relation, we introduce its Weyr characteristic. If the linear relation is the range (or the kernel) representation of a given matrix pencil, we…

Let $k$ be a field and $n,a,b$ natural numbers. A matrix pencil $P$ is given by $n$ matrices of the same size with coefficients in $k$, say by $(b\times a)$-matrices, or, equivalently, by $n$ linear transformations $\alpha_i\:k^a \to k^b$…

Given a $(k+1)$-tuple $A, B_1,...,B_k$ of $(m\times n)$-matrices with $m\le n$ we call the set of all $k$-tuples of complex numbers $\{\la_1,...,\la_k\}$ such that the linear combination $A+\la_1B_1+\la_2B_2+...+\la_kB_k$ has rank smaller…

We solve the problem of characterizing the Kronecker structure of a matrix pencil obtained by a rank-one perturbation of another matrix pencil. The results hold over arbitrary fields.

In this paper we study combinatorial invariants of the equivalence classes of pencils of cubics on $\mathrm{PG}(1,q)$, for $q$ odd and $q$ not divisible by 3. These equivalence classes are considered as orbits of lines in…

We show that the set of $m \times m$ complex skew-symmetric matrix polynomials of odd grade $d$, i.e., of degree at most $d$, and (normal) rank at most $2r$ is the closure of the single set of matrix polynomials with the certain, explicitly…

The problem of classifying linear systems of conics in projective planes dates back at least to Jordan, who classified pencils (one-dimensional systems) of conics over $\mathbb{C}$ and $\mathbb{R}$ in 1906--1907. The analogous problem for…

We give a geometric description of singular pencils of quadrics of constant rank, relating them to the splitting type of some naturally associated vector bundles on $\mathbb{P}^1$. Then we study their orbits in the Grassmannian of lines,…
