| Sep 10, 2014 at 23:58 | comment | added | Ben Wieland | (1) what? the arxiv link? the MO link? (2) It is not clear to me that the standard tame question, classifying matrices up to conjugation, is itself in P. Rational canonical form is not, because it requires factorization, but I suspect that there is a way around that. | |

Speaking of wildness and computational complexity, how do those problems behave when the field of interest is finite? Simultaneous conjugacy of ordered pairs of matrices is, for example, obviously in NP. | |
