The classification of edges and the change in multiplicity of an eigenvalue of a real symmetric matrix resulting from the change in an edge value

Kenji Toyonaga, Charles R. Johnson (2017)

Special Matrices

We take as given a real symmetric matrix A, whose graph is a tree T, and the eigenvalues of A, with their multiplicities. Each edge of T may then be classified in one of four categories, based upon the change in multiplicity of a particular eigenvalue, when the edge is removed (i.e. the corresponding entry of A is replaced by 0).We show a necessary and suficient condition for each possible classification of an edge. A special relationship is observed among 2-Parter edges, Parter edges and singly...

The Collatz-Wielandt quotient for pairs of nonnegative operators

Shmuel Friedland (2020)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper we consider two versions of the Collatz-Wielandt quotient for a pair of nonnegative operators A , B that map a given pointed generating cone in the first space into a given pointed generating cone in the second space. If the two spaces and two cones are identical, and B is the identity operator, then one version of this quotient is the spectral radius of A . In some applications, as commodity pricing, power control in wireless networks and quantum information theory, one needs to deal with...

The D -stability problem for 4 × 4 real matrices

Serkan T. Impram, Russell Johnson, Raffaella Pavani (2005)

Archivum Mathematicum

We give detailed discussion of a procedure for determining the robust D -stability of a 4 × 4 real matrix. The procedure begins from the Hurwitz stability criterion. The procedure is applied to two numerical examples.

The Direct and Inverse Spectral Problems for some Banded Matrices

Zagorodnyuk, S. M. (2011)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 15A29.In this paper we introduced a notion of the generalized spectral function for a matrix J = (gk,l)k,l = 0 Ґ, gk,l О C, such that gk,l = 0, if |k-l | > N; gk,k+N = 1, and gk,k-N № 0. Here N is a fixed positive integer. The direct and inverse spectral problems for such matrices are stated and solved. An integral representation for the generalized spectral function is obtained.
