We take as given a real symmetric matrix A, whose graph is a tree T, and the eigenvalues of A, with their multiplicities. Each edge of T may then be classified in one of four categories, based upon the change in multiplicity of a particular eigenvalue, when the edge is removed (i.e. the corresponding entry of A is replaced by 0).We show a necessary and suficient condition for each possible classification of an edge. A special relationship is observed among 2-Parter edges, Parter edges and singly...
In this paper we consider two versions of the Collatz-Wielandt quotient for a pair of nonnegative operators that map a given pointed generating cone in the first space into a given pointed generating cone in the second space. If the two spaces and two cones are identical, and is the identity operator, then one version of this quotient is the spectral radius of . In some applications, as commodity pricing, power control in wireless networks and quantum information theory, one needs to deal with...
The maximum multiplicity of an eigenvalue in a matrix whose graph is a tree, M1, was understood fully (froma combinatorial perspective) by C.R. Johnson, A. Leal-Duarte (Linear Algebra and Multilinear Algebra 46 (1999) 139-144). Among the possible multiplicity lists for the eigenvalues of Hermitian matrices whose graph is a tree, we focus upon M2, the maximum value of the sum of the two largest multiplicities when the largest multiplicity is M1. Upper and lower bounds are given for M2. Using a combinatorial...
Standard facts about separating linear functionals will be used to determine how two cones and and their duals and may overlap. When is linear and and are cones, these results will be applied to and , giving a unified treatment of several theorems of the alternate which explain when contains an interior point of . The case when is the space of Hermitian matrices, is the positive semidefinite matrices, and yields new and known results about the existence of block diagonal...
Suppose has a 2-dimensional expanding subspace , satisfies a regularity condition, called “good star”, and has , where is an oriented compound of . A morphism of the free group on is called a non-abelianization of if it has structure matrix . We show that there is a tiling substitution whose “boundary substitution” is a non-abelianization of . Such a tiling substitution leads to a self-affine tiling of with as its expansion. In the last section we find conditions on so...
