Linear subspaces of $\mathrm{GL}_n(\mathbb{R})$ whose inverses are also linear subspaces
$\DeclareMathOperator\GL{GL}$We will call a subset $S \subset \GL_n(\mathbb{R})$ a linear subspace if it is of the form $S = S'\cap \GL_n(\mathbb{R})$ for some $S'\subset M_n(\mathbb{R})$ which is a ...

General Sylvester's linear matrix equation
For what conditions on $A$, $B$ and $C$ (square matrices of size $n$) would there be a unique solution to
$$
ABX + AXC + XBC = D,
$$
for any $D$? Can one expect a characterization similar to the ...

On the linear transformation between matrix space
Suppose we have two matrix subspaces, $n\times n$ matrix subspace $S_1$ and $m\times m$ matrix subspace $S_2$. Every element of $S_1$ and $S_2$ is complex symmetric matrix.
Suppose there exists ...

Powers of small square matrices over the Laurent polynomial ring with integer coefficients
I'm trying to calculate the powers of a 2 by 2 matrix with entries in $\mathbb{Z} \left[ t,t^{-1} \right]$.
The matrix is \begin{bmatrix}
0 & 1 \\
1 & t
\end{bmatrix}
I tought of writing my ...

How many non-isomorphic associative algebras of dimension 2 over the field F_{p^k} are there?
How many non-isomorphic associative algebras of dimension 2 over the field F_{p^k} are there?
As much as I have searched, I have not found any results that answer my question; not even for k = 1,2.
