Condition numbers of Hessenberg companion matrices

Michael Cox, Kevin N. Vander Meulen, Adam Van Tuyl, Joseph Voskamp (2024)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The Fiedler matrices are a large class of companion matrices that include the well-known Frobenius companion matrix. The Fiedler matrices are part of a larger class of companion matrices that can be characterized by a Hessenberg form. We demonstrate that the Hessenberg form of the Fiedler companion matrices provides a straight-forward way to compare the condition numbers of these matrices. We also show that there are other companion matrices which can provide a much smaller condition...

A note on certain ergodicity coeflcients

Francesco Tudisco (2015)

Special Matrices

Similarity:

We investigate two ergodicity coefficients ɸ ∥∥ and τn−1, originally introduced to bound the subdominant eigenvalues of nonnegative matrices. The former has been generalized to complex matrices in recent years and several properties for such generalized version have been shown so far.We provide a further result concerning the limit of its powers. Then we propose a generalization of the second coefficient τ n−1 and we show that, under mild conditions, it can be used to recast the eigenvector...

Pentadiagonal Companion Matrices

Brydon Eastman, Kevin N. Vander Meulen (2016)

Special Matrices

Similarity:

The class of sparse companion matrices was recently characterized in terms of unit Hessenberg matrices. We determine which sparse companion matrices have the lowest bandwidth, that is, we characterize which sparse companion matrices are permutationally similar to a pentadiagonal matrix and describe how to find the permutation involved. In the process, we determine which of the Fiedler companion matrices are permutationally similar to a pentadiagonal matrix. We also describe how to find...

Studying the various properties of MIN and MAX matrices - elementary vs. more advanced methods

Mika Mattila, Pentti Haukkanen (2016)

Special Matrices

Similarity:

Let T = {z1, z2, . . . , zn} be a finite multiset of real numbers, where z1 ≤ z2 ≤ · · · ≤ zn. The purpose of this article is to study the different properties of MIN and MAX matrices of the set T with min(zi , zj) and max(zi , zj) as their ij entries, respectively.We are going to do this by interpreting these matrices as so-called meet and join matrices and by applying some known results for meet and join matrices. Once the theorems are found with the aid of advanced methods, we also...
