Is there a standard name for a linear operator $T$ on a finite dimensional vector space satisfying $T^n=T^{n+1}$ for some $n\geq 1$ or, equivalently, $T$ is a similar to a direct sum of a nilpotent ...

To expand upon the title, I am wondering if there is a specific name for square matrices of the form: $$M = \begin{bmatrix} a_{11} & 0 & \cdots & 0 & \cdots & & 0 & b_{1n} ...

It is standard to define an induced matrix norm $|||\cdot|||$ from a vector norm $||\cdot||$ in this way: $|||A|||=\max_{x \neq 0}{\frac{||Ax||}{||x||}}$. Suppose we define a different function of ...

If $A$ is a matrix and $D$ is a diagonal matrix, is there some special name for $DAD$?

Is there a name and common technique for such equations, where $A$ and $B$ are matrices and $x$ a vector? $Ax+f(\lambda)Bx=g(\lambda)x$.
