An interlacing property of eigenvalues strictly totally positive matrices
We prove results concerning the interlacing of eigenvalues of principal submatrices of strictly totally positive (STP) matrices.
متن کاملInterlacing Inequalities for Totally Nonnegative Matrices
Suppose λ1 ≥ · · · ≥ λn ≥ 0 are the eigenvalues of an n × n totally nonnegative matrix, and λ̃1 ≥ · · · ≥ λ̃k are the eigenvalues of a k × k principal submatrix. A short proof is given of the interlacing inequalities: λi ≥ λ̃i ≥ λi+n−k, i = 1, . . . , k. It is shown that if k = 1, 2, n− 2, n− 1, λi and λ̃j are nonnegative numbers satisfying the above inequalities, then there exists a totally nonneg...
متن کاملSelf-interlacing polynomials II: Matrices with self-interlacing spectrum
An n×n matrix is said to have a self-interlacing spectrum if its eigenvalues λk , k = 1, . . . ,n, are distributed as follows: λ1 >−λ2 > λ3 > · · ·> (−1)λn > 0. A method for constructing sign definite matrices with self-interlacing spectrum from totally nonnegative ones is presented. This method is applied to bidiagonal and tridiagonal matrices. In particular, a result by O. Holtz on the spectr...
متن کاملLecture 5: Eigenvalues of Hermitians Matrices
This lecture takes a closer look at Hermitian matrices and at their eigenvalues. After a few generalities about Hermitian matrices, we prove a minimax and maximin characterization of their eigenvalues, known as Courant–Fischer theorem. We then derive some consequences of this characterization, such as Weyl theorem for the sum of two Hermitian matrices, an interlacing theorem for the sum of two ...
متن کاملNonlinear eigenvalue { eigenvector problems for STP matrices
A matrix A is said to be strictly totally positive (STP) if all its minors are strictly positive. STP matrices were independently introduced by Schoenberg in 1930 (see [13, 14]) and by Krein and Gantmacher in the 1930s. The main results concerning eigenvalues and eigenvectors of STP matrices were proved by Gantmacher and Krein in their 1937 paper [6]. (An announcement appeared in 1935 in [5]. C...
