Questions where the notion matrix has an important or crucial role (for the latter, note the tag matrix-theory for potential use). Matrices appear in various parts of mathematics, and this tag is typically combined with other tags to make the general subject clear, such as an appropriate top-level tag ra.rings-and-algebras, co.combinatorics, etc. and other tags that might be applicable. There are also several more specialized tags concerning matrices.

Unitary factor in polar decompositions

proposition $2.4$ of this paper shows that for $n$ sufficiently large one can construct a $n \times n$ unitary matrix $U=-I_{2}\oplus U'$, which can be decomposed as the product of three positive matrices … This matrix, with distance $2$ from the identity matrix $I_{4}$, is the unitary factor of polar decomposition of $AB$ for two positive matrices $A,B$. …
