We consider perturbations of a large Jordan matrix, either random and small in norm or of small rank. In both cases we show that most of the eigenvalues of the perturbed matrix are very close to a circle with centre at the origin. In the…

Let $M_n$ be the algebra of $n \times n$ complex matrices and $\mathcal{T}_n \subseteq M_n$ the corresponding upper-triangular subalgebra. In their influential work, Petek and \v{S}emrl characterize Jordan automorphisms of $M_n$ and…

It is well known that the matrix exponential of a non-normal matrix can exhibit transient growth even when all eigenvalues of the matrix have negative real part, and similarly for the powers of the matrix when all eigenvalues have magnitude…
