‎In this paper‎, ‎some algebraic and geometrical properties of the rank$-k$ numerical hulls of normal matrices are investigated‎. ‎A characterization of normal matrices whose rank$-1$ numerical hulls are equal to their numerical range is given‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎using the extreme points of the numerical range‎, ‎the higher rank numerical hulls of matrices of the form $A_1 oplus i A_2$‎, ‎where $A_1...

For any n×n matrix A , we use the joint higher rank numerical range, Λk(A, . . . ,Am) , to define the higher rank numerical hull of A . We characterize the higher rank numerical hulls of Hermitian matrices. Also, the higher rank numerical hulls of unitary matrices are studied. Mathematics subject classification (2010): 15A60,81P68.

the rank-k numerical range has a close connection to the construction of quantum error correction code for a noisy quantum channel. for noisy quantum channel, a quantum error correcting code of dimension k exists if and only if the associated joint rank-k numerical range is non-empty. in this paper the notion of joint rank-k numerical range is generalized and some statements of [2011, generaliz...

in this note we characterize polynomial numerical hulls of matrices $a in m_n$ such that$a^2$ is hermitian. also, we consider normal matrices $a in m_n$ whose $k^{th}$ power are semidefinite. for such matriceswe show that $v^k(a)=sigma(a)$.

In this paper, the notion of rank-k numerical range of rectangular complex matrix polynomials are introduced. Some algebraic and geometrical properties are investigated. Moreover, for ϵ > 0; the notion of Birkhoff-James approximate orthogonality sets for ϵ-higher rank numerical ranges of rectangular matrix polynomials is also introduced and studied. The proposed denitions yield a natural genera...
