We study the combinatorial and algebraic properties of Nonnegative Matrices. Our results are divided into three different categories. 1. We show a quantitative generalization of the 100 year-old Perron-Frobenius theorem, a fundamental…
We prove that if an $n\times n$ matrix defined over ${\mathbb Q}_p$ (or more generally an arbitrary complete, discretely-valued, non-Archimedean field) satisfies a certain congruence property, then it has a strictly maximal eigenvalue in…
We introduce the concept of shape partition of a tensor and formulate a general tensor eigenvalue problem that includes all previously studied eigenvalue problems as special cases. We formulate irreducibility and symmetry properties of a…
The Perron-Frobenius theorem plays an important role in many areas of management science and operations research. This paper provides a probabilistic perspective on the theorem, by discussing a proof that exploits a probabilistic…
We introduce the notion of order-preserving multi-homogeneous mapping which allows to study Perron-Frobenius type theorems and nonnegative tensors in unified fashion. We prove a weak and strong Perron-Frobenius theorem for these maps and…
Let $x_1, \dots, x_n$ be points in a metric space and define the distance matrix $D \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ by ${D}_{ij} = d(x_i, x_j)$. The Perron-Frobenius Theorem implies that there is an eigenvector $v \in \mathbb{R}^n_{}$ with…
In this article the well known "Perron-Frobenius theory" is investigated involving the higher rank numerical range $\Lambda_{k}(A)$ of an irreducible and entrywise nonnegative matrix $A$ and extending the notion of elements of maximum…
The Perron-Frobenius theory for nonnegative matrices has been generalized to order-preserving homogeneous mappings on a cone and more recently to nonnegative multilinear forms. We unify both approaches by introducing the concept of…
That the Perron root of a square nonnegative matrix A varies continuously with the entries in A is a corollary of theorems regarding continuity of eigenvalues or roots of polynomial equations, the proofs of which necessarily involve complex…
For matrices with all nonnegative entries, the Perron-Frobenius theorem guarantees the existence of an eigenvector with all nonnegative components. We show that the existence of such an eigenvector is also guaranteed for a very different…
We propose a theory of eigenvalues, eigenvectors, singular values, and singular vectors for tensors based on a constrained variational approach much like the Rayleigh quotient for symmetric matrix eigenvalues. These notions are particularly…
We prove a general version of the classical Perron-Frobenius convergence property for reducible matrices. We then apply this result to reducible substitutions and use it to produce limit frequencies for factors and hence invariant measures…
We prove an analog of Perron-Frobenius theorem for multilinear forms with nonnegative coefficients, and more generally, for polynomial maps with nonnegative coefficients. We determine the geometric convergence rate of the power algorithm to…
The Ruelle-Perron-Frobenius (RPF) theorem is a powerful tool in the study of equilibrium measures and their statistical properties. We prove a nonstationary version of this theorem under general conditions involving an invariant sequence of…
We consider multiplicative semigroups of real dxd matrices. A semigroup S is called Perron if each of its matrices has a Perron eigenvalue, i.e., an eigenvalue equal to the spectral radius. If all matrices of S leave a proper convex cone…
Following the Perron-Frobenius theorem, the spectral radius of a primitive matrix is a simple eigenvalue. It is shown that for a primitive matrix $A$, there is a positive rank one matrix $X$ such that $B = A \circ X$, where $\circ$ denotes…

We study continuity of the roots of nonmonic polynomials as a function of their coefficients using only the most elementary results from an introductory course in real analysis and the theory of single variable polynomials. Our approach…
We derive a generalization of the Perron-Frobenius theorem to time-varying row-stochastic matrices as follows: using Kolmogorov's concept of absolute probability sequences, which are time-varying analogs of principal eigenvectors, we…
We develop a Perron-Frobenius type theory for products of random quantum channels acting on finite-dimensional matrix algebras sampled from a stationary and ergodic stochastic process, which, in keeping with the literature, we call ergodic…
