Abstract

We study when every square matrix over an algebraically closed field or over a finite field is decomposable into a sum of a potent matrix and a nilpotent matrix of order 2. This can be related to our recent paper, published in Linear & Multilinear Algebra (2022). We also completely address the question when each square matrix over an infinite field can be decomposed into a periodic matrix and a nilpotent matrix of order 2
