The Invertible Linear Operator Preserving {1,2}-Inverses of Matrices over Semirings

On idempotent matrices over semirings

Idempotent matrices play a significant role while dealing with different questions in matrix theory and its applications. It is easy to see that over a field any idempotent matrix is similar to a diagonal matrix with 0 and 1 on the main diagonal. Over a semiring the situation is quite different. For example, the matrix J of all ones is idempotent over Boolean semiring. The first characterizatio...

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...

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...

Invertible and Nilpotent Matrices over Antirings

Abstract. In this paper we characterize invertible matrices over an arbitrary commutative antiring S with 1 and find the structure of GLn(S). We find the number of nilpotent matrices over an entire commutative finite antiring. We prove that every nilpotent n×n matrix over an entire antiring can be written as a sum of ⌈log2 n⌉ square-zero matrices and also find the necessary number of square-zer...
