Is there a matrix with this specific quadratic determinant?
We have $\det M=(a+b)(c+d)$ where
$M=\begin{bmatrix}
a& 0& -1& 0\\
0& c& 0& -1\\
b& 0& 1& 0\\
0& d& 0& 1
\end{bmatrix}$ and $\det M'=(a'+b')(c'+d')$...

Decomposition of a determinant
Let $M$ be a $4\times 4$ symmetric matrix whose entries $m_{i,j}$ for $i,j =1,\dots,4$ are homogeneous polynomials of degree $2$ in $3$ variables. Assume that $m_{1,1} = 0$.
Does there exist a ...

Rank of Hadamard product of column-wise polynomial evaluations and row-wise exponential evaluations
Consider the Hadamard product $A \odot B$ between two special matrices $A,B \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times m}$. The columns of $A$ are evaluations of polynomials, while the rows of $B$ are evaluations of ...

Characterisation of Coxeter matrices with all non-real eigenvalues having absolute value 1
Let $C$ be an invertible integer matrix. Then a matrix $M$ is called Coxeter matrix (following Sato in https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0024379505001709?via%3Dihub ) when $M=-C^{-1} ...

Is it true that the generator of maximal ideal in $M_n(P[x])$ can be choosen to be monic?
Let $P$ be a finite field and $R=M_n(P[x])$ be a matrix polynomial ring.
I want to prove
that for every polynomial (not necessary with invertible leading term) $A(x)\in R$ such that $R\cdot A(x)$ is ...

Intersecting vector spaces defined over different fields
Let $K_1, K_2$ be subfields of $K$, let $k = K_1 \bigcap K_2$, let $V_1$ be a $K_1$-vector space, $V_2$ be a $K_2$-vector space, both of them subsets of a $K$-vector space $V$.
How can I compute a $k$...

Quick calculation of a symmetric product with two indices
Say I have a product $\prod_{1\le i \le N-1}\prod_{i<j\le N-1} (1+t_i t_j a_{ij})$, where $a_{ij}$s are real number. I want to calculate the coefficient of $\prod_{0 \le i < N} t_i$. Is there an ...
