The $F$-regularity of algebraic sets related to commutator matrices

Abstract

We study the algebraic sets of pairs of matrices defined by the vanishing of the anti-diagonal as well as the cross-diagonal of their commutator matrix. We prove that, over a field of prime characterisitic, the coordinate ring of the latter is always $F$-regular and, with exactly one exception, so is that of the former, thus proving a conjecture of Kadyrsizova and Yerlanov.
