Generalized Courant-Fischer theorem

Consider some quaternionic matrix $A$. A right eigvenvalue of $A$ is a quaternion $q$ such that $Ax=xq$ for some $x\in \mathbb{H}^n$. Similarly, a left eigenvalue of $A$ is quaternion $q$ such that $...

Condition for equality of modules generated by columns of matrices

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unit. Let $M_A$ denote the submodule of $R^m$ generated by columns of a matrix $A$ with entries in $R$. Suppose we are given two matrices $A,B \in R^{m \times k}$. I ...
