Abstract

Polynomial n× n matrices A(λ) and B(λ) over a field \mathbb F are called semi-scalar equivalent if there exist a nonsingular n× n matrix P over the field \mathbb F and an invertible n× n matrix Q(λ) over the ring \mathbb F[λ] such that A(λ)=P B(λ)Q(λ). The semi-scalar equivalence of matrices over a field \mathbb F contain the problem of similarity between two families of matrices. Therefore, these equivalences of matrices can be considered a difficult problem in linear algebra. The aim of the present paper is to present the necessary and sufficient conditions of semi-scalar equivalence of nonsingular matrices A(λ) and B(λ) over a field \mathbb F of characteristic zero in terms of solutions of a homogenous system of linear equations. We also establish similarity of monic polynomial matrices A(λ) and B(λ) over a field.
