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.

Perimeter preserver of matrices over semifields

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

For a rank- 1 matrix A = 𝐚 𝐛 t , we define the perimeter of A as the number of nonzero entries in both 𝐚 and 𝐛 . We characterize the linear operators which preserve the rank and perimeter of rank- 1 matrices over semifields. That is, a linear operator T preserves the rank and perimeter of rank- 1 matrices over semifields if and only if it has the form T ( A ) = U A V , or T ( A ) = U A t V with some invertible matrices U and V.
