A new rank formula for idempotent matrices with applications

Yong Ge Tian, George P. H. Styan (2002)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

It is shown that rank ( P * A Q ) = rank ( P * A ) + rank ( A Q ) - rank ( A ) , where A is idempotent, [ P , Q ] has full row rank and P * Q = 0 . Some applications of the rank formula to generalized inverses of matrices are also presented.

Trace and determinant in Banach algebras

Bernard Aupetit, H. Mouton (1996)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We show that the trace and the determinant on a semisimple Banach algebra can be defined in a purely spectral and analytic way and then we obtain many consequences from these new definitions.

Co-rank and Betti number of a group

Irina Gelbukh (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For a finitely generated group, we study the relations between its rank, the maximal rank of its free quotient, called co-rank (inner rank, cut number), and the maximal rank of its free abelian quotient, called the Betti number. We show that any combination of the group's rank, co-rank, and Betti number within obvious constraints is realized for some finitely presented group (for Betti number equal to rank, the group can be chosen torsion-free). In addition, we show that the Betti number...

Zero-term rank preservers of integer matrices

Seok-Zun Song, Young-Bae Jun (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

Similarity:

The zero-term rank of a matrix is the minimum number of lines (row or columns) needed to cover all the zero entries of the given matrix. We characterize the linear operators that preserve the zero-term rank of the m × n integer matrices. That is, a linear operator T preserves the zero-term rank if and only if it has the form T(A)=P(A ∘ B)Q, where P, Q are permutation matrices and A ∘ B is the Schur product with B whose entries are all nonzero integers.
