Abstract
Max-plus algebra is one of many idempotent semi-rings. The max-plus algebraic structure is semi field while the conventional algebra is a field. Because of their similar structure, various properties and concepts in the conventional algebra such as characteristic equations have max plus algebraic equivalence. The characteristic equation has been proved in the max-plus algebra. The other semi-field is min-plus algebra. Because of the structure in the min-plus algebra is also similar to the conventional algebra, the characteristic equation also has a min-plus algebraic equivalent. In this paper, it is discussed how to prove the characteristic equation of the matrix over conventional algebra into the min-plus algebra. The results are almost the same. The addition and multiplication operations in the conventional algebra are replaced by min and plus operations in the min-plus algebra. In addition, because of the min-plus algebra does not define the subtraction operation, the formulation of the characteristic equation of the matrix over min-plus algebra is not equal to zero.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Interdisciplinary Mathematics (JIM) is a world leading journal publishing high quality, rigorously peer-reviewed original research in mathematical applications to different disciplines, and to the methodological and theoretical role of mathematics in underpinning all scientific disciplines. The scope is intentionally broad, but papers must make a novel contribution to the fields covered in order to be considered for publication. Topics include, but are not limited, to the following: • Interface of Mathematics with other Disciplines • Theoretical Role of Mathematics • Methodological Role of Mathematics • Interface of Statistics with other Disciplines • Cognitive Sciences • Applications of Mathematics • Industrial Mathematics • Dynamical Systems • Mathematical Biology • Fuzzy Mathematics The journal considers original research articles, survey articles, and book reviews for publication. Responses to articles and correspondence will also be considered at the Editor-in-Chief’s discretion. Special issue proposals in cutting-edge and timely areas of research in interdisciplinary mathematical research are encouraged – please contact the Editor-in-Chief in the first instance.
