On properties of quadratic matrices.
Homogeneous quadratic polynomials in complex variables are investigated and various necessary and sufficient conditions are given for to be nonzero in the set . Conclusions for the theory of multivariable positive real functions are formulated with applications in multivariable electrical network theory.
For p ≡ 1 (mod 4), we prove the formula (conjectured by R. Chapman) for the determinant of the (p+1)/2 × (p+1)/2 matrix with .
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 12F12, 15A66.In this article we survey and examine the realizability of p-groups as Galois groups over arbitrary fields. In particular we consider various cohomological criteria that lead to necessary and sufficient conditions for the realizability of such a group as a Galois group, the embedding problem (i.e., realizability over a given subextension), descriptions of such extensions, automatic realizations among p-groups, and related topics.
Let be the set of all real or complex matrices. For , we say that is row-sum majorized by (written as ) if , where is the row sum vector of and is the classical majorization on . In the present paper, the structure of all linear operators preserving or strongly preserving row-sum majorization is characterized. Also we consider the concepts of even and circulant majorization on and then find the linear preservers of row-sum majorization of these relations on .
Let A be an invertible 3 × 3 complex matrix. It is shown that there is a 3 × 3 permutation matrix P such that the product PA has at least two distinct eigenvalues. The nilpotent complex n × n matrices A for which the products PA with all symmetric matrices P have a single spectrum are determined. It is shown that for a n × n complex matrix [...] there exists a permutation matrix P such that the product PA has at least two distinct eigenvalues.
