Characterizations of {K,s+1}-Potent Matrices and Applications
Recently, situations where a matrix coincides with some of its powers have been studied. This kind of matrices is related to the generalized inverse matrices. On the other hand, it is possible to introduce another class of matrices that involve an involutory matrix, generalizing the well-known idempotent matrix, widely useful in many applications. In this paper, we introduce a new kind of matrices called {K,s+1}-potent, as an extension of the aforementioned ones. First, different properties of {K,s+1}-potent matrices have been developed. Later, the main result developed in this paper is the characterization of this kind of matrices from a spectral point of view, in terms of powers of the ma…
On a matrix group constructed from an {R,s+1,k}-potent matrix
Let R is an element of C-nxn be a {k}-involutory matrix (that is, R-k = I-n) for some integer k >= 2, and let s be a nonnegative integer. A matrix A is an element of C-nxn is called an {R,s + 1, k}-potent matrix if A satisfies RA = A(s+1)R. In this paper, a matrix group corresponding to a fixed {R,s + 1, k}-potent matrix is explicitly constructed, and properties of this group are derived and investigated. This group is then reconciled with the classical matrix group G(A) that is associated with a generalized group invertible matrix A.
Algorithms for {K, s+1}-potent matrix constructions
In this paper, we deal with {K, s + 1}-potent matrices. These matrices generalize all the following classes of matrices: k-potent matrices, periodic matrices, idempotent matrices, involutory matrices, centrosymmetric matrices, mirrorsymmetric matrices, circulant matrices, among others. Several applications of these classes of matrices can be found in the literature. We develop algorithms in order to compute {K, s + 1}-potent matrices and {K, s + 1}-potent linear combinations of {K, s + 1}-potent matrices. In addition, some examples are presented in order to show the numerical performance of the method. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
