Oct 1, 2015 at 13:09 comment added Grigory Yaroslavtsev Treating j as an $n$-dimensional vector $j[t]$ is its $t$-th entry.
Oct 1, 2015 at 7:19 comment added Dima Pasechnik what are these $B_{j[1]}$, $B_{j[2]}$, etc?

Sep 30, 2015 at 11:55 comment added Grigory Yaroslavtsev Thanks. I should have fixed this earlier but can't edit the comment. The multiplicativity of rank only holds as an inequality $rank(A \dagger B) \ge rank(A) rank(B)$.
Sep 30, 2015 at 6:32 comment added მამუკა ჯიბლაძე I've posted a question about the latter

Sep 29, 2015 at 20:56 comment added მამუკა ჯიბლაძე As a starter, one needs an operation on vector spaces something like $V^{\otimes W}$ of dimension $\dim(V)^{\dim(W)}$; of course with chosen bases it is immediate, but is there an invariant version?
Sep 29, 2015 at 20:37 comment added Grigory Yaroslavtsev Thanks, just for the rank argument tensor product is definitely enough, I was just wondering about the matrix itself.
Sep 29, 2015 at 20:09 comment added მამუკა ჯიბლაძე If you just need rank multiplicativity, there is a more economic one - tensor product (of size $ab\times nm$, with $(A\otimes B)_{\langle i,k\rangle,\langle j,l\rangle}=A_{i,j}B_{k,l}$)
Sep 29, 2015 at 18:42 comment added Thomas Rot I'm in favor of the yaroslavtsev super-slam. You can cite this MO question:)
Sep 29, 2015 at 16:50 comment added Grigory Yaroslavtsev I just need the fact that $rank(A \dagger B) = rank(A)rank(B)$ which is easy to show directly. However, it would be helpful to know if this operation and its properties are already known so that I can just cite an appropriate source. I like your "super-slam" idea though :)
Sep 29, 2015 at 16:33 comment added Chris Ramsey How is this operation arising? Or are you hoping to call it the "Yaroslavtsev super-slam"?
