Potter, Wielandt, and Drazin on the Matrix Equation AB = ωBA: New Answers to Old Questions

Abstract: In this partly historical and partly research oriented note, we display a page of an unpublished mathematical diary of Helmut Wielandt's for 1951. There he gives a new proof of a theorem due to H. S. A. Potter on the matrix equation AB = ωBA, which is related to the q-binomial theorem, and asks some further questions, which we answer. We also describe results by M. P. Drazin and others on this equation.

“…If we take a one dimensional subspace V 1 = CU for any unitary U ∈ C n×n , then the problems are equivalent. 16 However, if V 1 is a subspace of C n×n over C of dimension two at least, 15 Called MINRES [25]. 16 The sparse approximate inverse minimization problem (1.6) belongs to this category with U = I .…”
