Linear transformations of tropical matrices preserving the cyclicity index

Linear maps preserving or strongly preserving majorization on matrices

For $A,Bin M_{nm},$ we say that $A$ is left matrix majorized (resp. left matrix submajorized) by $B$ and write $Aprec_{ell}B$ (resp. $Aprec_{ell s}B$), if $A=RB$ for some $ntimes n$ row stochastic (resp. row substochastic) matrix $R.$ Moreover, we define the relation $sim_{ell s} $ on $M_{nm}$ as follows: $Asim_{ell s} B$ if $Aprec_{ell s} Bprec_{ell s} A.$ This paper characterizes all linear p...

for $a,bin m_{nm},$ we say that $a$ is left matrix majorized (resp. left matrix submajorized) by $b$ and write $aprec_{ell}b$ (resp. $aprec_{ell s}b$), if $a=rb$ for some $ntimes n$ row stochastic (resp. row substochastic) matrix $r.$ moreover, we define the relation $sim_{ell s} $ on $m_{nm}$ as follows: $asim_{ell s} b$ if $aprec_{ell s} bprec_{ell s} a.$ this paper characterizes all linear p...

Linear Transformations on Matrices *

Even in thi s generality , it is clear that .!l' (I , ~) is a multiplicative se migroup with an ide ntity. The invariant I can be a scalar valued fun ction, e.g. , I (X) = det (X) ; or for that matter it can describe a property, e.g., m can equal M" (C) and I (X) can mean that X is unitary , so that we are simply asking for the s tructure of all linear transformation s T that map the unitary gr...

On Zero-Preserving Linear Transformations

For an arbitrary subset I of IR and for a function f defined on I, the number of zeros of f on I will be denoted by ZI(f) . In this paper we attempt to characterize all linear transformations T taking a linear subspace W of C(I) into functions defined on J (I, J ⊆ IR) such that ZI(f) = ZJ (Tf) for all f ∈ W .
