On the algebra generated by three commuting matrices: combinatorial cases

Abstract

Gerstenhaber proved in 1961 that the unital algebra generated by a pair of commuting d× d matrices over a field has dimension at most d. It is an open problem whether the analogous statement is true for triples of matrices which pairwise commute. We answer this question for special classes of triples of matrices arising from combinatorial data.
