Abstract

Let R be a unital associative algebra over a field K of characteristic zero, and let f be a multilinear polynomial of degree m over K  . If m≤3m≤3, we prove that all traceless matrices can be written as the sum of two values of f   evaluated over Mn(R)Mn(R) with n≥2n≥2. If m=4m=4, we prove the same result for n≥3n≥3.
