Let $\mathcal \{D\}_\{n,r\}$ be an $n\times n$ sign pattern with $2\le r \le n$ such that the superdiagonal and the $(n,n)$ entries are positive, the $(i,1)$$(i=1, \dots , r)$ and $(i,i-r+1)$$(i=r+1, \dots , n)$ entries are negative, and zeros elsewhere. We prove that for $r\ge 3$ and $n \ge 4r-2$, the sign pattern $\mathcal \{D\}_\{n,r\}$ is not potentially nilpotent, and so not spectrally arbitrary.},

AB - An $n\times n$ sign pattern $\mathcal {A}$ is said to be potentially nilpotent if there exists a nilpotent real matrix $B$ with the same sign pattern as $\mathcal {A}$. Let $\mathcal {D}_{n,r}$ be an $n\times n$ sign pattern with $2\le r \le n$ such that the superdiagonal and the $(n,n)$ entries are positive, the $(i,1)$$(i=1, \dots , r)$ and $(i,i-r+1)$$(i=r+1, \dots , n)$ entries are negative, and zeros elsewhere. We prove that for $r\ge 3$ and $n \ge 4r-2$, the sign pattern $\mathcal {D}_{n,r}$ is not potentially nilpotent, and so not spectrally arbitrary.
