We prove three inequalities relating some invariants of sets of matrices, such as the joint spectral radius. One of the inequalities, in which proof we use geometric invariant theory, has the generalized spectral radius theorem of Berger…
One of fundamental results of the theory of joint/generalized spectral radius, the Berger-Wang theorem, establishes equality between the joint and generalized spectral radii of a set of matrices. Generalization of this theorem on products…
The lower spectral radius, or joint spectral subradius, of a set of real $d \times d$ matrices is defined to be the smallest possible exponential growth rate of long products of matrices drawn from that set. The lower spectral radius arises…
The joint spectral radius of a pair of 2x2 real matrices $(A_0,A_1)\in M_2(\mathbb{R})^2$ is defined to be $r(A_0,A_1)= \limsup_{n\to\infty} \max \{\|A_{i_1}...A_{i_n}\|^{1/n}: i_j\in\{0,1\}\}$, the optimal growth rate of the norm of…
The Berger-Wang formula establishes equality between the joint and generalized spectral radii of a set of matrices. For matrix products whose multipliers are applied not arbitrarily but in accordance with some Markovian law, there are also…
The primary aim of this paper is to establish bounds on the joint spectral radius for a finite set of nonnegative matrices based on their diagonal elements. The efficacy of this approach is evaluated in comparison to existing and related…
We establish results with an arithmetic flavor that generalize the polynomial multidimensional Szemeredi theorem and related multiple recurrence and convergence results in ergodic theory. For instance, we show that in all these statements…
Consider a square random matrix with independent and identically distributed entries of mean zero and unit variance. We show that as the dimension tends to infinity, the spectral radius is equivalent to the square root of the dimension in…
We use spectral method to prove a joint equidistribution of primitive rational points and the same along expanding horocycle orbits in the products of the circle and the unit cotangent bundle of the modular surface. This result explicates…
The joint spectral radius of a set of matrices is a measure of the maximal asymptotic growth rate that can be obtained by forming long products of matrices taken from the set. This quantity appears in a number of application contexts but is…
Using ergodic theory, in this paper we present a Gel'fand-type spectral radius formula which states that the joint spectral radius is equal to the generalized spectral radius for a matrix multiplicative semigroup $\bS^+$ restricted to a…
Recently, several research efforts showed that the analysis of joint spectral characteristics of sets of matrices is greatly eased when these matrices share an invariant cone. In this short note we prove two new results in this direction.…
We introduce the notion of \emph{joint spectrum} of a compact set of matrices $S \subset GL_d(\mathbb{C})$, which is a multi-dimensional generalization of the joint spectral radius. We begin with a thorough study of its properties (under…
A result for subadditive ergodic cocycles is proved that provides more delicate information than Kingman's subadditive ergodic theorem. As an application we deduce a multiplicative ergodic theorem generalizing an earlier result of…
We introduce and study procedures and constructions in the theory of the joint spectral radius that are related to the spectral theory. In particular we devlop the theory of the scattered radical. Among applications we find some sufficient…
Von Neumann's original proof of the ergodic theorem is revisited. A uniform convergence rate is established under the assumption that one can control the density of the spectrum of the underlying self-adjoint operator when restricted to…
We show that the joint spectral radius of a finite collection of nonnegative matrices can be bounded by the eigenvalue of a non-linear operator. This eigenvalue coincides with the ergodic constant of a risk-sensitive control problem, or of…
We prove an a priori lower bound for the pressure, or $p$-norm joint spectral radius, of a measure on the set of $d \times d$ real matrices which parallels a result of J. Bochi for the joint spectral radius. We apply this lower bound to…
We prove explicit polynomial bounds for Bochi's inequalities regarding the joint spectral radius of a subset of $d\times d$ matrices.
