Constructive Arithmetics in Ore Localizations Enjoying Enough Commutativity

Abstract

This paper continues a research program on constructive investigations of non-commutative Ore localizations, initiated in our previous papers, and particularly touches the constructiveness of arithmetics within such localizations. Earlier we have introduced monoidal, geometric and rational types of localizations of domains as objects of our studies. Here we extend this classification to rings with zero divisors and consider Ore sets of the mentioned types which are commutative enough: such a set either belongs to a commutative algebra or it is central or its elements commute pairwise. By using the systematic approach we have developed before, we prove that arithmetic within the localization of a commutative polynomial algebra is constructive and give the necessary algorithms. We also address the important question of computing the local closure of ideals which is also known as the desingularization, and present an algorithm for the computation of the symbolic power of a given ideal in a commutative ring. We also provide algorithms to compute local closures for certain non-commutative rings with respect to Ore sets with enough commutativity.

On solutions of singular Sylvester equations in quaternions

The quaternionic equations ax-xb=0 and ax-xb=c are investigated, which are called homogeneous and inhomogeneous Sylvester equations, respectively. Conditions for the existence of solutions are provided. In addition, the general and nonzero solutions to these equations are derived applying quaternion square roots.

Positivity preservers over finite fields II

We say that a matrix over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is positive definite if it is symmetric and each of its leading principal minors is a nonzero square in $\mathbb{F}_q$. In previous work of the authors [J. Algebra, 2025], the entrywise positivity preservers on $M_n(\mathbb{F}_q)$ were classified in every case except when $n=2$, $q\equiv1\pmod4$, and $q$ is not a square. We settle this remaining case, thereby completing the classification of entrywise positivity preservers over every finite field and in every dimension $n\ge2$. Our proof is based on a novel idempotent reduction that not only resolves the remaining case but also yields a self-contained proof of the complete classification, while avoiding several technical results used in the earlier arguments. As a further application of the same reduction, we classify the entrywise preservers of strongly nonsingular matrices, i.e., matrices whose leading principal minors are all nonzero. We also prove a more general theorem in odd characteristic: for every prescribed sign pattern of nonzero leading principal minors of matrices of a fixed dimension $n\ge2$, the entrywise preservers are precisely the positive scalar multiples of field automorphisms. Thus, in odd characteristic, preserving any nonzero leading-principal-minor sign pattern surprisingly forces the preservation of every such sign pattern.

Graphs of Moore-Penrose inverse of matrices possessing the treeangle property

It is known that the inverse of an invertible real square matrix satisfying the treeangle property, is a treediagonal matrix. A converse statement also holds. We show that the verbatim analogues are not true for the Moore-Penrose inverse, and obtain the precise structure of graphs corresponding to the Moore-Penrose inverse of matrices possessing the treeangle property.
