Let denote the space of infinite matrices for which for all with . We characterize the upper triangular positive matrices from , , by using a special kind of Schur multipliers and the G. Bennett factorization technique. Also some related results are stated and discussed.
In the paper the problem of practical stability of linear positive discrete-time systems of fractional order is addressed. New simple necessary and sufficient conditions for practical stability and for practical stability independent of the length of practical implementation are established. It is shown that practical stability of the system is equivalent to asymptotic stability of the corresponding standard positive discrete-time systems of the same order. The discussion is illustrated with numerical...
A matrix A ∈ ℝn×n is a GM-matrix if A = sI − B, where 0 < ρ(B) ≤ s and B ∈WPFn i.e., both B and Bt have ρ(B) as their eigenvalues and their corresponding eigenvector is entry wise nonnegative. In this article, we consider a generalization of a subclass of GM-matrices having a nonnegative core nilpotent decomposition and prove a characterization result for such matrices. Also, we study various notions of splitting of matrices from this new class and obtain sufficient conditions for their convergence....
Some convergent sequences of the lower bounds of the minimum eigenvalue for the Hadamard product of a nonsingular M-matrix B and the inverse of a nonsingular M-matrix A are given by using Brauer’s theorem. It is proved that these sequences are monotone increasing, and numerical examples are given to show that these sequences could reach the true value of the minimum eigenvalue in some cases. These results in this paper improve some known results.
