Let A = [aij] denote an n-square matrix with entries in the field of complex numbers. Denote by H a subgroup of Sn, the symmetric group on the integers 1, …, n, and by a character of degree 1 on H. Thenis the generalized matrix function of A associated with H and x; e.g., if H = Sn and χ = 1, then the permanent function. If the sequences ω = (ω1, …, ωm) and ϒ = (ϒ1, …, ϒm) are m-selections, m ≦ w, of integers 1, …, n, then A [ω| ϒ] denotes the m-square generalized submatrix [aωiϒj], i, j = 1, …, m, of the n-square matrix A. If ω is an increasing m-combination, then A [ω|ω] is an m-square principal submatrix of A.

Let G be a permutation group of degree m. Let x be an irreducible complex character of G. If A = (aij) is an m-square matrix, the generalised matrix function of A based on G and x is defined byFor example if G = Sm, the full symmetric group, and x is the alternating character, then d = determinant. If G = Sm and x is identically 1, then d = permanent.

Let F be a field, F* be its multiplicative group and Mn(F) be the vector space of all n-square matrices over F. Let Sn be the symmetric group acting on the set {1, 2, … , n}. If G is a subgroup of Sn and λ is a function on G with values in F, then the matrix function associated with G and X, denoted by Gλ, is defined byand letℐ(G, λ) = { T : T is a linear transformation of Mn(F) to itself and Gλ(T(X)) = Gλ(X) for all X}.

Let U be a k-dimensional vector space over the complex numbers. Let ⊗m U denote the mth tensor power of U where m ≧ 2. For each permutation σ in the symmetric group Sm, there exists a linear mapping P(σ) on ⊗mU such thatfor all x1, …, xm in U.Let G be a subgroup of Sm and λ an irreducible (complex) character on G. The symmetrizeris a projection of ⊗ mU. Its range is denoted by Uλm(G) or simply Uλ(G) and is called the symmetry class of tensors corresponding to G and λ.

In recent papers, S. Carvalho and P. J. Freitas obtained formulas for directional derivatives, of all orders, of the immanant and of the m-th $\xi$-symmetric tensor power of an operator and a matrix, when $\xi$ is a character of the full symmetric group. The operator bound norm of these derivatives was also calculated. In this paper similar results are established for generalized matrix functions and for every symmetric tensor power.

By using representation theory and irreducible characters of the symmetric group, we introduce character dependent states and study their entanglement via geometric measure. We also present a geometric interpretation of generalized matrix functions via this entanglement analysis.

The permanent of an n-square complex matrix P = (pij ) is defined by where the summation extends over Sn , the symmetric group of degree n. This matrix function has considerable significance in certain combinatorial problems [6; 7]. The properties and many related problems about the permanent are presented in [3] along with an extensive bibliography.

AbstractSuppose m and n are integers such that 1 ≤ m ≤ n. For a subgroup H of the symmetric group Sm of degree m, consider the generalized matrix function on m × m matrices B = (bij) defined by and the generalized numerical range of an n × n complex matrix A associated with dH defined byIt is known that WH(A) is convex if m = 1 or if m = n = 2. We show that there exist normal matrices A for which WH(A) is not convex if 3 ≤ m ≤ n. Moreover, for m = 2 < n, we prove that a normal matrix A with eigenvalues lying on a straight line has convex WH(A) if and only if νA is Hermitian for some nonzero ν ∈ ℂ. These results extend those of Hu, Hurley and Tam, who studied the special case when 2 ≤ m ≤ 3 ≤ n and H = Sm.

AbstractIn this paper we prove that, up to a scalar multiple, the determinant is the unique generalized matrix function that preserves the product or remains invariant under similarity. Also, we present a new proof for the known result that, up to a scalar multiple, the ordinary characteristic polynomial is the unique generalized characteristic polynomial for which the Cayley-Hamilton theorem remains true.

Let Mm(F) be the vector space of m-square matriceswhere F is a field; let f be a function on Mm(F) to some set R. It is of interest to determine the linear maps T: Mm(F) → Mm(F) which preserve the values of the function ƒ; i.e., ƒ(T(X)) = ƒ(X) for all X. For example, if we take ƒ(X) to be the rank of X, we are asking for a determination of the types of linear operations on matrices that preserve rank. Other classical invariants that may be taken for f are the determinant, the set of eigenvalues, and the rth elementary symmetric function of the eigenvalues. Dieudonné (1), Hua (2), Jacobs (3), Marcus (4, 6, 8), Mori ta (9), and Moyls (6) have conducted extensive research in this area. A class of matrix functions that have recently aroused considerable interest (4; 7) is the generalized matrix functions in the sense of I. Schur (10).
