Abstract
Given an rÃr complex matrix T, if T=U|T| is the polar decomposition of T, then, the Aluthge transform is defined byÎ(T)=|T|1/2U|T|1/2. Let În(T) denote the n-times iterated Aluthge transform of T, i.e., Î0(T)=T and În(T)=Î(Înâ1(T)), nâN. We prove that the sequence {În(T)}nâN converges for every rÃr matrix T. This result was conjectured by Jung, Ko and Pearcy in 2003. We also analyze the regularity of the limit function.
