摘要
The objective of this paper is to develop a general algebraic theory of supertropical matrix algebra, extending [11]. Our main results are as follows: The tropical determinant (i.e., permanent) is multiplicative when all the determinants involved are tangible.There exists an adjoint matrix adj(A) such that the matrix A adj(A) behaves much like the identity matrix (times |A|).Every matrix A is a supertropical root of its Hamilton-Cayley polynomial fA. If these roots are distinct, then A is conjugate (in a certain supertropical sense) to a diagonal matrix.The tropical determinant of a matrix A is a ghost iff the rows of A are tropically dependent, iff the columns of A are tropically dependent.Every root of fA is a “supertropical” eigenvalue of A (appropriately defined), and has a tangible supertropical eigenvector.
