Friedland (1981) showed that for a nonnegative square matrix A, the spectral radius r(e^D A) is a log-convex functional over the real diagonal matrices D. He showed that for fully indecomposable A, log r(e^D A) is strictly convex over D_1,…

For a nonnegative matrix A and real diagonal matrix D, two known inequalities on the spectral radius, r(A^2 D^2) >= r(AD)^2 and r(A) r(A D^2) >= r(AD)^2, leave open the question of what determines the order of r(A^2 D^2) with respect to…
