On a devil’s staircase associated to the joint spectral radii of a family of pairs of matrices

Ian D. Morris, Nikita Sidorov (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

The joint spectral radius of a finite set of real d × d matrices is defined to be the maximum possible exponential rate of growth of products of matrices drawn from that set. In previous work with K. G. Hare and J. Theys we showed that for a certain one-parameter family of pairs of matrices, this maximum possible rate of growth is attained along Sturmian sequences with a certain characteristic ratio which depends continuously upon the parameter. In this note we answer some open questions from that paper...

On orderings induced by the Loewner partial ordering

Jan Hauke, Augustyn Markiewicz (1994)

Applicationes Mathematicae

The partial ordering induced by the Loewner partial ordering on the convex cone comprising all matrices which multiplied by a given positive definite matrix become nonnegative definite is considered. Its relation to orderings which are induced by the Loewner partial ordering of the squares of matrices is presented. Some extensions of the latter orderings and their comparison to star orderings are given.
