For a nilpotent matrix A, are the cardinalities of sets: 1) B: commute with A, 2) B: anticommute with A, 3) B: q-commute with A — the same?
Let us work over finite fields $F_{p^k}$. Simulations seems to indicate:
Question 1: Consider a nilpotent matrix $A$, consider the set of all matrices $B$, such that $AB-qBA=0$, then cardinality of ...
