The seminal work by Mackey et al. in 2006 (reference [21] of the article) introduced vector spaces of matrix pencils, with the property that almost all the pencils in the spaces are strong linearizations of a given square regular matrix…

Matrix polynomials given in an orthogonal basis are considered. Following the ideas of Mackey et al. "Vector spaces of Linearizations for Matrix Polynomials" (2006), the vec- tor spaces, called M1(P), M2(P) and DM(P), of potential…

We revisit the landmark paper [D. S. Mackey, N. Mackey, C. Mehl, and V. Mehrmann, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl., 28 (2006), pp.~971--1004] and, by viewing matrices as coefficients for bivariate polynomials, we provide concise proofs for key…

The standard way of solving the polynomial eigenvalue problem associated with a matrix polynomial is to embed the matrix polynomial into a matrix pencil, transforming the problem into an equivalent generalized eigenvalue problem. Such…

A well known method to solve the Polynomial Eigenvalue Problem (PEP) is via linearization. That is, transforming the PEP into a generalized linear eigenvalue problem with the same spectral information and solving such linear problem with…

Let $k$ be a field and $n,a,b$ natural numbers. A matrix pencil $P$ is given by $n$ matrices of the same size with coefficients in $k$, say by $(b\times a)$-matrices, or, equivalently, by $n$ linear transformations $\alpha_i\:k^a \to k^b$…

We consider the distance from a (square or rectangular) matrix pencil to the nearest matrix pencil in 2-norm that has a set of specified eigenvalues. We derive a singular value optimization characterization for this problem and illustrate…

The numerical solution of the generalized eigenvalue problem for a singular matrix pencil is challenging due to the discontinuity of its eigenvalues. Classically, such problems are addressed by first extracting the regular part through the…

We present a randomized, inverse-free algorithm for producing an approximate diagonalization of any $n \times n$ matrix pencil $(A,B)$. The bulk of the algorithm rests on a randomized divide-and-conquer eigensolver for the generalized…

One useful standard method to compute eigenvalues of matrix polynomials ${\bf P}(z) \in \mathbb{C}^{n\times n}[z]$ of degree at most $\ell$ in $z$ (denoted of grade $\ell$, for short) is to first transform ${\bf P}(z)$ to an equivalent…

The standard approach for finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrix polynomials starts by embedding the coefficients of the polynomial into a matrix pencil, known as linearization. Building on the pioneering work of Nakatsukasa and…

For each square matrix polynomial $P(\lambda)$ of odd degree, a block-symmetric block-tridiagonal pencil $\mathcal{T}_{P}(\lambda)$ was introduced by Antoniou and Vologiannidis in 2004, and a variation $\mathcal{R}_P(\lambda)$ was…

Recently, three numerical methods for the computation of eigenvalues of singular matrix pencils, based on a rank-completing perturbation, a rank-projection, or an augmentation were developed. We show that all three approaches can be…

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we introduce a new class of linearizations, based on the generalization of a construction used in polynomial algebra to find the zeros of a system of (scalar) polynomial equations. We show that one…

Bundles of matrix polynomials are sets of matrix polynomials with the same size and grade and the same eigenstructure up to the specific values of the eigenvalues. It is known that the closure of the bundle of a pencil $L$ (namely, a matrix…
