Andrada Pojar
We prove that every nonderogatory matrix over a field of positive odd characteristic that is sum of a -potent matrix and a nilpotent matrix, has a decomposition $A=E+V,…

Companion matrices as sums of -potent and nilpotent matrices
Andrada Pojar
We prove that, over a field of odd characteristic , a companion matrix is the sum of and , with -potent (i.e. ,) and nilpotent, if an…
