We show that any compact
semigroup of $n\times n$ matrices is similar to a semigroup
bounded by $\sqrt{n}$. We give examples to show that this bound is
best possible and consider the effect of the minimal rank of
matrices in the semigroup on this bound.
Keywords:
compact semigroup times matrices similar semigroup bounded sqrt examples bound best possible consider effect minimal rank matrices semigroup bound
