Abstract (Original language)
Résumé

Let F be a field and let $n, p_{1}, p_{2}, p_{3}$ be positive integers such that $n = p_{1} + p_{2} + p_{3}$ . Let

A = [\begin{matrix} A_{1, 1} & A_{1, 2} & A_{1, 3} \\ A_{2, 1} & A_{2, 2} & A_{2, 3} \\ A_{3, 1} & A_{3, 2} & A_{3, 3} \end{matrix}] \in F^{n \times n},

where the blocks

A_{i, j}

are of type

p_{i} \times p_{j}, i, j \in {1, 2, 3}

, and the blocks in the positions

(i, i)

are square. We describe the characteristic polynomial of A, when:

(i) $A_{1, 1}$ , $A_{1, 2}$ and $A_{3, 3}$ are fixed and the other blocks vary;

(ii) $A_{1, 1}$ , $A_{1, 2}$ and $A_{2, 3}$ are fixed and the remaining blocks vary.

Soit F un corps et soient $n, p_{1}, p_{2}, p_{3}$ des entiers positifs tels que $n = p_{1} + p_{2} + p_{3}$ . Soit

A = [\begin{matrix} A_{1, 1} & A_{1, 2} & A_{1, 3} \\ A_{2, 1} & A_{2, 2} & A_{2, 3} \\ A_{3, 1} & A_{3, 2} & A_{3, 3} \end{matrix}] \in F^{n \times n},

où les blocs

A_{i, j}

sont de type

p_{i} \times p_{j}, i, j \in {1, 2, 3}

. Nous étudions le polynôme caractéristique de la matrice A, quand :

(i) $A_{1, 1}, A_{1, 2}$ et $A_{3, 3}$ sont connus et les autres blocs varient ;

(ii) $A_{1, 1}, A_{1, 2}$ et $A_{2, 3}$ sont connus et les autres blocs varient.
