Kronecker product: Is it possible to simplify this product $e^{-A} \otimes e^{A}$ where $A$ is an invertible and symmetric matrix [closed]

Let $A$ be an invertible, symmetric and tridiagonal matrix of size $n \times n$. Assume that $A_{i,i}=a \neq 0$ for $i=1\dotsc n$ and all the elements in the sub- and super-diagonal of $A$ are $b \neq ...

Are there nice isomorphisms $\operatorname{S}^2(k^n)\cong\Lambda^2(k^{n+1})$?

This might be forced to migrate to math.SE but let me still risk it. The spaces $\operatorname{S}^2(k^n)$ and $\Lambda^2(k^{n+1})$ from the title have equal dimensions. Is there a natural isomorphism ...

Dimension of the nilpotent centralizer of a nilpotent matrix

Fix a natural number $n$ and an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{gl}_n(k)$. For any partition of $n$, $\lambda=(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_r)$, let $A_{\lambda}$ be the $n\...
