For a tuple $A=(A_1,\ A_2,\ ...,\ A_n)$ of elements in a unital algebra ${\mathcal B}$ over $\mathbb{C}$, its {\em projective spectrum} $P(A)$ or $p(A)$ is the collection of $z\in \mathbb{C}^n$, or respectively $z\in \mathbb{P}^{n-1}$ such…
We solve the problem of characterizing the Kronecker structure of a matrix pencil obtained by a rank-one perturbation of another matrix pencil. The results hold over arbitrary fields.
The main purpose of this article is to show that the numerical range of a linear pencil $\lambda A + B$ is equal to $\mathbb{C}$ if and only if $0$ belongs to the convex hull of the joint numerical range of $A$ and $B$. We also prove that…
We study pencils of plane cubics with only one base point and general member smooth, giving a complete classification. Under the additional hypothesis that all members are irreducible, we prove that there exists a unique non-isotrivial…
This paper is concerned with the reduction of the spectral problem for symmetric linear operator pencils to a spectral problem for the single operator. Also, a Rayleigh-Ritz-like bounds on eigenvalues of linear operator pencils are…
In this work, we consider symmetric positive definite pencils depending on two parameters. That is, we are concerned with the generalized eigenvalue problem $A(x)-\lambda B(x)$, where $A$ and $B$ are symmetric matrix valued functions in…
Let A,B denote binary forms of order d, and let C_{2r-1} = (A,B)_{2r-1} be the sequence of their linear combinants for r between 1 and (d+1)/2. It is known that C_1 and C_3 together determine the pencil generated by A and B, and hence…
We survey index theorems counting eigenvalues of linearized Hamiltonian systems and characteristic values of polynomial operator pencils. We present a simple common graphical interpretation and generalization of the index theory using the…
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…
Complete eigenstructure, e.g., eigenvalues with multiplicities and minimal indices, of a skew-symmetric matrix pencil may change drastically if the matrix coefficients of the pencil are subjected to (even small) perturbations. These changes…
We analyze when an arbitrary matrix pencil is equivalent to a dissipative Hamiltonian pencil and show that this heavily restricts the spectral properties. In order to relax the spectral properties, we introduce matrix pencils with…
In this paper, spectral properties of matrices with (complex) zeon entries are investigated. It is shown that when $A$ is an $m\times m$ self-adjoint matrix whose characteristic polynomial $\chi_A(u)$ has $m$ ``spectrally simple'' zeros…
This paper is devoted to the study of perturbations of a matrix pencil, structured or unstructured, such that a perturbed pencil will reproduce a given deflating pair while maintaining the invariance of the complementary deflating pair. If…
Given bounded selfadjoint operators $A$ and $B$ acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, consider the linear pencil $P(\lambda)=A+\lambda B$, $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$. The set of parameters $\lambda$ such that $P(\lambda)$ is a positive…
We find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the n by n matrix with (i,j) entry \binom(i-1,n-j), establishing a conjecture of Peele and Stanica. Curiously, the eigenvectors can be chosen to form a matrix which is its own inverse.
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…
Tubal scalars are usual vectors, and tubal matrices are matrices with every element being a tubal scalar. Such a matrix is often recognized as a third-order tensor. The product between tubal scalars, tubal vectors, and tubal matrices can be…
A generalized eigenvalue algorithm for tridiagonal matrix pencils is presented. The algorithm appears as the time evolution equation of a nonautonomous discrete integrable system associated with a polynomial sequence which has some…
The QZ algorithm for computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix pencil $A - \lambda B$ requires that the matrices first be reduced to Hessenberg-triangular (HT) form. The current method of choice for HT reduction relies entirely on…
We introduce a new class of structured matrix polynomials, namely, the class of M_A-structured matrix polynomials, to provide a common framework for many classes of structured matrix polynomials that are important in applications: the…
