A tuple (Z_1,...,Z_p) of matrices of size r is said to be a commuting extension of a tuple (A_1,...,A_p) of matrices of size n <r if the Z_i pairwise commute and each A_i sits in the upper left corner of a block decomposition of Z_i. This…

We prove that for any fixed unitary matrix $U$, any abelian self-adjoint algebra of matrices that is invariant under conjugation by $U$ can be embedded into a maximal abelian self-adjoint algebra that is still invariant under conjugation by…

Let $G$ be a closed highly homogeneous subgroup of $S_{\infty}$ not involving circular orderings. We show that the closure of a conjugacy class from $G$ contains a conjugacy class which is comeagre in it. Furthermore, we show that the…

We investigate the commuting automorphisms of nilpotent Lie algebras $L$ with coclass $\leq 3$. Our examination exposes the conditions under which the set of commuting automorphisms of $L$ forms a subgroup within its automorphism group.

Let SL(2,q) be the group of 2X2 matrices with determinant one over a finite field F of size q. We prove that if q is even, then the product of any two noncentral conjugacy classes of SL(2,q) is the union of at least q-1 distinct conjugacy…

We study the identity problem for matrices, i.e., whether the identity matrix is in a semigroup generated by a given set of generators. In particular we consider the identity problem for the special linear group following recent…

We present a solution to the Conjugacy Problem in the group of outer-automorphisms of $F_3$, a free group of rank 3. We distinguish according to several computable invariants, such as irreducibility, subgroups of polynomial growth, and…

This paper addresses various questions about pairs of similarity classes of matrices which contain commuting elements. In the case of matrices over finite fields, we show that the problem of determining such pairs reduces to a question…

Let $M_{1,2}(F)$ be the algebra of $3 \times 3$ matrices with orthosymplectic superinvolution $*$ over a field $F$ of characteristic zero. We study the $*$-identities of this algebra through the representation theory of the group…

The commuting variety of matrices over a given field is a well-studied object in linear algebra and algebraic geometry. As a set, it consists of all pairs of square matrices with entries in that field that commute with one another. In this…

In this paper we show that the irreducible representations of a finite inverse semigroup $S$ over an algebraically closed field $F$ are in bijection with the conjugacy classes of $S$ if the characteristic of $F$ is zero or a prime number…

This is an expository paper about iterations of a smooth real function $f$ on $[0,\varepsilon)$ such that $f(0)=0$, $f'(0)=1$, and $f(x)<x$ for $x>0$, i.e., the sequence defined by $x_{n+1}=f(x_n)$. This sequence has interesting…

We prove upper and lower bounds on the number of pairs of commuting $n\times n$ matrices with integer entries in $[-T,T]$, as $T\to \infty$. Our work uses Fourier analysis and leads us to an analysis of exponential sums involving matrices…

Recently, Maurice Chayet and Skip Garibaldi introduced a class of commutative non-associative algebras. In previous work, we gave an explicit description of these algebras for groups of type $G_2,F_4$ and certain forms of $E_6$ in terms of…

We obtain formulae for the numbers of isomorphism and conjugacy classes of non-identity proper subgroups of the groups $G={\rm PSL}_2(p)$, $p$ prime, and for the numbers of those conjugacy classes which do or do not consist of…

This paper concerns the enumeration of simultaneous conjugacy classes of $k$-tuples of commuting matrices in the upper triangular group $GT_n(\mathbf F_q)$ and unitriangular group $UT_m(\mathbf F_q)$ over the finite field $\mathbf F_q$ of…

Let $K$ be a perfect field, $L$ be an extension field of $K$ and $A,B\in\mathcal{M}_n(K)$. If $A$ has $n$ distinct eigenvalues in $L$ that are explicitly known, then we can check if $A,B$ are simultaneously triangularizable over $L$. Now we…

We introduce the notion of a conjugation-free geometric presentation for a fundamental group of a line arrangement's complement, and we show that the fundamental groups of the following family of arrangements have a conjugation-free…

We show that the group algebras $\mathbb{C}[\text{SL}_3(\mathbb{F}_3[t]/(t^3))]$ and $\mathbb{C}[\text{SL}_3(\mathbb{Z}/27)]$ are not isomorphic, as well as $\mathbb{C}[\text{SL}_4(\mathbb{F}_2[t]/(t^3))]$ and…

We obtain an explicit characterization of the stable points of the action of G=SL(2,C) on the cartesian product G^n by simultaneous conjugation on each factor, in terms of the corresponding invariant functions, and derive from it a simple…
