Fully non-zero matrices and generators of full algebras of operators
Laurent W. Marcoux, Heydar Radjavi, Bamdad R. Yahaghi +1
In a wide variety of fields, every non-scalar matrix is similar to a matrix all of whose entries are non-zero. We give extensions of this result, including some in the division…

Kaplansky's problem and unitary orbits in matrix amplifications
Laurent W. Marcoux, Pawel Sarkowicz, Yuanhang Zhang
We study the distances between the unitary orbits of matrix amplifications of elements in certain C*-algebras. In particular, we show that the distance between unitary orbits of ar…
