On the unitary orbit of complex matrices

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Let Mn(ℂ) be the algebra of n × n complex matrices. Suppose S ⊂ ℂ is a measure zero set. It is proved that if A ∈ Mn(ℂ) is not essentially Hermitian then for almost all unitary matrices U ∈ Mc(ℂ), each entry of U* AU is not in S. Some other results of this type are obtained. The ideas here are mainly from differential topology.
