نویسندگان
چکیده
Notions of numerical ranges and joint numerical ranges of octonion matrices are introduced. Various properties of hermitian octonion matrices related to eigenvalues and convex cones, such as the convex cone of positive semidefinite matrices, are described. As an application, convexity of joint numerical ranges of 2×2 hermitian matrices is characterized. Another application involves existence of a matrix with a high eigenvalue multiplicity in a given real vector subspace of hermitian matrices.

متن کاملClassification of Joint Numerical Ranges of Three Hermitian Matrices of Size Three
The joint numerical range of three hermitian matrices of order three is a convex and compact subset W ⊂ R which is an image of the unit sphere S ⊂ C under the hermitian form defined by the three matrices. We label classes of the analyzed set W by pairs of numbers counting the exposed faces of dimension one and two. Generically, W belongs to the class of ovals. Assuming dim(W ) = 3, the faces of...
متن کاملSome results on the polynomial numerical hulls of matrices
In this note we characterize polynomial numerical hulls of matrices $A in M_n$ such that$A^2$ is Hermitian. Also, we consider normal matrices $A in M_n$ whose $k^{th}$ power are semidefinite. For such matriceswe show that $V^k(A)=sigma(A)$.
متن کاملProperties of matrices with numerical ranges in a sector
Let $(A)$ be a complex $(ntimes n)$ matrix and assume that the numerical range of $(A)$ lies in the set of a sector of half angle $(alpha)$ denoted by $(S_{alpha})$. We prove the numerical ranges of the conjugate, inverse and Schur complement of any order of $(A)$ are in the same $(S_{alpha})$.The eigenvalues of some kinds of matrix product and numerical ranges of hadmard product, star-congruen...
متن کاملHigher-rank Numerical Ranges and Compression Problems
We consider higher-rank versions of the standard numerical range for matrices. A central motivation for this investigation comes from quantum error correction. We develop the basic structure theory for the higher-rank numerical ranges, and give a complete description in the Hermitian case. We also consider associated projection compression problems.
