We derive new perturbation bounds for eigenvalues of Hermitian matrices with block structures. The structures we consider range from a standard 2-by-2 block form to block tridiagonal and tridigaonal forms. The main idea is the observation…
Twisted Toeplitz matrices constitute a generalization of Toeplitz matrices in the sense that the entries on each diagonal no longer need to be constant, but are given by the values of a continuous function on a partition of $[0,1]$. We…
We characterize the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a class of complex valued tridiagonal $n$ by $n$ matrices subject to arbitrary boundary conditions, i.e. with arbitrary elements on the first and last rows of the matrix. %By boundary…
Evaluation of the eigenvectors of symmetric tridiagonal matrices is one of the most basic tasks in numerical linear algebra. It is a widely known fact that, in the case of well separated eigenvalues, the eigenvectors can be evaluated with…
A defective eigenvalue is well documented to be hypersensitive to data perturbations and round-off? errors, making it a formidable challenge in numerical computation particularly when the matrix is known through approximate data. This paper…
This paper is concerned with the distance of a symmetric tridiagonal Toeplitz matrix $T$ to the variety of similarly structured singular matrices, and with determining the closest matrix to $T$ in this variety. Explicit formulas are…

Spectral properties of Toeplitz operators and their finite truncations have long been central in operator theory. In the finite dimensional, non-normal setting, the spectrum is notoriously unstable under perturbations. Random perturbations…

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, $N$. They are parametrized…

In this paper we study the eigenvalues of Hermitian Toeplitz matrices with the entries $2,-1,0,\ldots,0,-\alpha$ in the first column. Notice that the generating symbol depends on the order $n$ of the matrix. If $|\alpha|\le 1$, then the…
Pseudospectra and structured pseudospectra are important tools for the analysis of matrices. Their computation, however, can be very demanding for all but small matrices. A new approach to compute approximations of pseudospectra and…
