We consider the max-plus analogue of the eigenproblem for matrix pencils Ax=lambda Bx. We show that the spectrum of (A,B) (i.e., the set of possible values of lambda), which is a finite union of intervals, can be computed in…

It is shown that for a given infinite graph $G$ on countably many vertices, and a compact, infinite set of real numbers $\Lambda$ there is a real symmetric matrix $A$ whose graph is $G$ and its spectrum is $\Lambda$. Moreover, the set of…

We prove new explicit asymptotic formulae between (geometric) eigenvalues in max-algebra and classical distinguished eigenvalues of nonnegative matrices, which are useful tools for transferring results between both settings. We establish…

Given an infinite graph $G$ on countably many vertices, and a closed, infinite set $\Lambda$ of real numbers, we prove the existence of an unbounded self-adjoint operator whose graph is $G$ and whose spectrum is $\Lambda$.

A set $\Omega$, of Lebesgue measure 1, in the real line is called spectral if there is a set $\Lambda$ of real numbers such that the exponential functions $e_\lambda(x) = \exp(2\pi i \lambda x)$ form a complete orthonormal system on…

We study the ultradiscrete analogue of Lax pair proposed by Willox et al. This "pair" is a max-plus linear system comprising four equations. Our starting point is to treat this system as a combination of two max-plus eigenproblems, with two…

We investigate the spectrum and the essential spectra of weighted automorphisms of the polydisc algebra $\mathbb{A}^n$. In the case $n=2$ we provide a detailed and, in most cases, complete description of these spectra.

In this note we construct a solution of a matrix interval linear equation of the form X=AX+B (the discrete stationary Bellman equation) over partially ordered semirings, including the semiring of nonnegative real numbers and all idempotent…

We describe the spectrum of a non-self-adjoint elliptic system on a finite interval. Under certain conditions we find that the eigenvalues form a discrete set and converge asymptotically at infinity to one of several straight lines. The…

A central problem of linear algebra is solving linear systems. Regarding linear systems as equations over general semirings (V,otimes,oplus,0,1) instead of rings or fields makes traditional approaches impossible. Earlier work shows that the…

We consider the spectral structure of indefinite second order boundary-value problems on graphs. A variational formulation for such boundary-value problems on graphs is given and we obtain both full and half-range completeness results. This…

We say that a complex number $\lambda$ is an extended eigenvalueof a bounded linear operator T on a Hilbert space H if there exists anonzero bounded linear operator X acting on H, called extended eigen-vector associated to $\lambda$, and…

We study the relation between the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator and its multidimensional numerical range. It turns out that the multidimensional numerical range is a convex set whose extreme points are sequences of eigenvalues of the…

The application of the max-algebra to describe queueing systems by both linear scalar and vector equations is discussed. It is shown that these equations may be handled using ordinary algebraic manipulations. Examples of solving the…

We characterize possible spectra of rank-one perturbations B of a self-adjoint operator A with discrete spectrum and, in particular, prove that the spectrum of B may include any number of real or non-real eigenvalues of arbitrary algebraic…

Suppose that c is a linear operator acting on an n-dimensional complex Hilbert Space H, and let tau denote the normalized trace on B(H). Set b_1 = (c+c*)/2 and b_2 = (c-c*)/2i, and write B for the the spectral scale of {b_1, b_2} with…

We investigate max-algebraic (tropical) one-sided systems $A\otimes x=b$ where $b$ is an eigenvector and $x$ lies in an interval $X$. A matrix $A$ is said to have $X$-simple image eigencone associated with an eigenvalue $\lambda$, if any…

This paper presents a finite step method for computing the binary solution to an overdetermined system of linear algebraic equations Ax = b, where A is an m x n real matrix of rank n < m, and b is a real m-vector. The method uses the…

Let us extend the pair of operations (max,+) over real numbers to matrices in the same way as in conventional linear algebra. We study integer images of max-plus linear mappings. The question whether Ax (in the max-plus algebra) is an…

We study a class of overdetermined algebraic systems of equations. We prove that the number of distinct solutions equals to the maximal possible if and only if certain matrices are commuting and semisimple. This gives a characterization of…
