We define positive integer roots of finite matrices in the 2×2 case. Where possible, we try to generalise results n×n matrices.

Abstract Loop invariant generation, which automates the generation of assertions that always hold at entry a while loop, has many important applications in program analysis and formal verification. In this work, we target an category loops, namely affine are unnested loops with loop guards variable updates. Such class widely exists programs yet still lacks general but efficient approach to gene...

A triangular matrix algebra over a field k is defined by a triplet (R, S, M) where R and S are k-algebras and RMS is an SR-bimodule. We show that if R, S and M are finite dimensional and the global dimensions of R and S are finite, then the triangular matrix algebra corresponding to (R, S, M) is derived equivalent to the one corresponding to (S, R, DM), where DM = Homk(M, k) is the dual of M , ...

Interested in formalizing the generation of fast running code for linear algebra applications, the authors show how an index-free, calculational approach to matrix algebra can be developed by regarding matrices as morphisms of a category with biproducts. This shifts the traditional view of matrices as indexed structures to a type-level perspective analogous to that of the pointfree algebra of p...

The present paper is devoted to infinite order decompositions of C*-algebras. It is proved that an infinite order decomposition (IOD) of a C*-algebra forms the complexification of an order unit space, and, if the C*-algebra is monotone complete (not necessarily weakly closed) then its IOD is also monotone complete ordered vector space. Also it is established that an IOD of a C*-algebra is a C*-...

Dirichlet branes are objects whose transverse coordinates in space are matrix– valued functions. This leads to considering a matrix algebra or, more generally, a Lie algebra, as the classical phase space of a certain dynamics where the multiplication of coordinates, being given by matrix multiplication, is nonabelian. Further quantising this dynamics by means of a ⋆–product introduces noncommut...
