The Drazin Inverses of Infinite Triangular Matrices and Their Linear Preservers

  • Published:
Ukrainian Mathematical Journal Aims and scope

We consider the ring of all infinite (ℕ × ℕ) upper triangular matrices over a field F. We give the description of elements that are Drazin invertible in this ring. In the case where F is such that char(F) 2 and |F| > 4, we find the form of linear preservers for the Drazin inverses.
