چکیده
We determine the number of nilpotent matrices of order n over Fq that are selfadjoint for a given nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form, and in particular find the number of symmetric nilpotent matrices.

Description of B−orbit Closures of Order 2 in Upper-triangular Matrices
Abstract. Let nn(C) be the algebra of strictly upper-triangular n × n matrices and X2 = {u ∈ nn(C) : u2 = 0} the subset of matrices of nilpotent order 2. Let Bn(C) be the group of invertible upper-triangular matrices acting on nn by conjugation. Let Bu be the orbit of u ∈ X2 with respect to this action. Let S2n be the subset of involutions in the symmetric group Sn. We define a new partial orde...
متن کاملRank properties of subspaces of symmetric and hermitian matrices over finite fields
We investigate constant rank subspaces of symmetric and hermitian matrices over finite fields, using a double counting method related to the number of common zeros of the corresponding subspaces of symmetric bilinear and hermitian forms. We obtain optimal bounds for the dimensions of constant rank subspaces of hermitian matrices, and good bounds for the dimensions of subspaces of symmetric and ...
متن کاملProperties of Central Symmetric X-Form Matrices
In this paper we introduce a special form of symmetric matrices that is called central symmetric $X$-form matrix and study some properties, the inverse eigenvalue problem and inverse singular value problem for these matrices.
متن کاملUnitary Equivalence to a Complex Symmetric Matrix: Low Dimensions
A matrix T ∈ Mn(C) is UECSM if it is unitarily equivalent to a complex symmetric (i.e., self-transpose) matrix. We develop several techniques for studying this property in dimensions three and four. Among other things, we completely characterize 4×4 nilpotent matrices which are UECSM and we settle an open problem which has lingered in the 3×3 case. We conclude with a discussion concerning a cru...
متن کاملReduction of a nilpotent intuitionistic fuzzy matrix using implication operator
A problem of reducing intuitionistic fuzzy matrices is examined and some useful properties are obtained with respect to nilpotent intutionistic fuzzy matrices. First, reduction of irreflexive and transitive intuitionistic fuzzy matrices are considered, and then the properties are applied to nilpotent intutionistic fuzzy matrices. Nilpotent intuitionistic fuzzy matrices are intuitionistic fuzzy ...
