On circulant matrices

From MaRDI portal





The space Circ(\(n\)) of \(n\times n\) circulant matrices is studied and the connections of these matrices with various fields of classical and modern mathematics are emphasized. Three isomorphic models are presented, namely the \({\mathbb C}\)-space \({\mathbb C}^n\), the \({\mathbb C}\)-algebra \({\mathbb C}[X]/(X^n-1)\) and the \({\mathbb C}\)-algebra of \(n\times n\) diagonal matrices.NEWLINENEWLINEThe determinants, eigenvalues and some other invariants of the circulant matrices are computed and they are used to obtain a unified approach to solving equations of degrees\(\leq n\). Some necessary and sufficient conditions for the nonsingularity of circulant matrices are provided. The connections of circulant matrices with Hankel and Toeplitz matrices are emphasized, as well as those between the properties of Circ(\(n\)) and of algebraic geometry over a field with one element.
