Abstract

The problem mentioned in the titled reduces to the estimation of the rank of a collection of matrices. The rank of a collection of matrices A1,...,Ae, denoted rk(A1,...,Ae), is the least number of such one-dimensional matrices that their linear combinations will represent each matrix of the given collection. For an operator A on ℂn there exists a space V and a diagonal operator B such that

; we denote the minimal dimension of such spaces V by d(V)

Theorem. For any matrix A we have the equality rk (E,A.)=n+d(A), where E is the identity matrix.
