The higher rank numerical range of nonnegative matrices
In this article the rank-k numerical range ∧k (A) of an entrywise nonnegative matrix A is investigated. Extending the notion of elements of maximum modulus in ∧k (A), we examine their location on the complex plane. Further, an application of this theory to ∧k (L(λ)) of a Perron polynomial L(λ) is elaborated via its companion matrix C L.
