Asymptotic Positivity of Hurwitz Product Traces

چکیده
Consider the polynomial tr (A + tB)m in t for positive hermitian matrices A and B with m ∈ N. The Bessis-Moussa-Villani conjecture (in the equivalent form of Lieb and Seiringer) states that this polynomial has nonnegative coefficients only. We prove that they are at least asymptotically positive, for the nontrivial case of AB 6= 0. More precisely, we show that the k-th coefficient is positive for all integer m ≥ m0, where m0 depends on A, B and k.

Asymptotic positivity of Hurwitz product traces: Two proofs
Consider the polynomial tr (A + tB)m in t for positive hermitian matrices A and B with m ∈ N. The Bessis-Moussa-Villani conjecture (in the equivalent form of Lieb and Seiringer) states that this polynomial has nonnegative coefficients only. We prove that they are at least asymptotically positive, for the nontrivial case of AB 6= 0. More precisely, we show —once complex-analytically, once combin...
متن کاملStability properties of a class of positive switched systems with rank one difference
Given a single-input continuous-time positive system, described by a pair (A,b), with A a diagonal matrix, we investigate under what conditions there exists a state-feedback law u(t) = c>x(t) that makes the resulting controlled system positive and asymptotically stable, by this meaning that A + bc> is Metzler and Hurwitz. In the second part of this note we assume that the state-space model swit...
متن کاملAN ASYMPTOTIC FORM FOR THE STIELTJES CONSTANTS γk(a) AND FOR A SUM Sγ(n) APPEARING UNDER THE LI CRITERION
We present several asymptotic analyses for quantities associated with the Riemann and Hurwitz zeta functions. We first determine the leading asymptotic behavior of the Stieltjes constants γk(a). These constants appear in the regular part of the Laurent expansion of the Hurwitz zeta function. We then use asymptotic results for the Laguerre polynomials Ln to investigate a certain sum Sγ(n) involv...
متن کاملHermite–Biehler, Routh–Hurwitz, and total positivity
Simple proofs of the Hermite–Biehler and Routh–Hurwitz theorems are presented. The total nonnegativity of the Hurwitz matrix of a stable real polynomial follows as an immediate corollary. © 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

متن کاملAlmost strict total positivity and a class of Hurwitz polynomials
We establish sufficient conditions for a matrix to be almost totally positive, thus extending a result of Craven and Csordas who proved that the corresponding conditions guarantee that a matrix is strictly totally positive. Then we apply our main result in order to obtain a new criteria for a real algebraic polynomial to be a Hurwitz one. The properties of the corresponding “extremal” Hurwitz p...
