چکیده
Let K denote a field and let V denote a vector space over K with finite positive dimension. We consider a pair of linear transformations A : V → V and A∗ : V → V that satisfy (i)–(iv) below: (i) Each of A, A∗ is diagonalizable. (ii) There exists an ordering V0, V1, . . . , Vd of the eigenspaces of A such that A ∗Vi ⊆ Vi−1 + Vi + Vi+1 for 0 ≤ i ≤ d, where V−1 = 0, Vd+1 = 0. (iii) There exists an ordering V ∗ 0 , V ∗ 1 , . . . , V ∗ δ of the eigenspaces of A∗ such that AV ∗ i ⊆ V ∗ i−1 + V ∗ i + V ∗ i+1 for 0 ≤ i ≤ δ, where V ∗ −1 = 0, V ∗ δ+1 = 0. (iv) There is no subspace W of V such that both AW ⊆ W , A∗W ⊆ W , other than W = 0 and W = V . We call such a pair a tridiagonal pair on V . In this note we obtain two results. First, we show that each of A,A∗ is determined up to affine transformation by the Vi and V ∗ i . Secondly, we characterize the case in which the Vi and V ∗ i all have dimension one. We prove both results using a certain decomposition of V called the split decomposition.

Splitting of Expanded Tridiagonal Matrices
The article addresses a regular splitting of tridiagonal matrices. The given tridiagonal matrix A is rst expanded to an equivalent matrix e A and then split as e A = B R for which B is block-diagonal and every eigenvalue of B R is zero, i.e., (M N) = 0. The optimal splitting technique is applicable to various algorithms that incorporate one-dimensional solves or their approximations. Examples c...

In this article, we consider pair frames in Banach spaces and introduce Banach pair frames. Some various concepts in the frame theory such as frames, Schauder frames, Banach frames and atomic decompositions are considered as special kinds of (Banach) pair frames. Some frame-like inequalities for (Banach) pair frames are presented. The elements that participant in the construction of (Ba...
