Asymptotics of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of Toeplitz matrices

Mathematical Physics 2015-05-13 v5 math.MP

Abstract

A Toeplitz matrix is one in which the matrix elements are constant along diagonals. The Fisher-Hartwig matrices are much-studied singular matrices in the Toeplitz family. The matrices are defined for all orders, NN. They are parametrized by two constants, α\alpha and β\beta. Their spectrum of eigenvalues has a simple asymptotic form in the limit as NN goes to infinity. Here we study the structure of their eigenvalues and eigenvectors in this limiting case. We specialize to the case 0<α<β<10<\alpha<|\beta|<1, where the behavior is particularly simple.
