چکیده

Two characterizations of general matrices for which the spectral radius is an eigenvalue and the corresponding eigenvector is either positive or nonnegative are presented. One is a full characterization in terms of the sign of the entries of the spectral projector. In another case, different necessary and sufficient conditions are presented that relate to the classes of the matrix. These characterizations generalize well-known results for nonnegative matrices.

PERRON-FROBENIUS THEORY ON THE NUMERICAL RANGE FOR SOME CLASSES OF REAL MATRICES

We give further results for Perron-Frobenius theory on the numericalrange of real matrices and some other results generalized from nonnegative matricesto real matrices. We indicate two techniques for establishing the main theorem ofPerron and Frobenius on the numerical range. In the rst method, we use acorresponding version of Wielandt's lemma. The second technique involves graphtheory.

Perron-Frobenius Properties of General Matrices

A matrix is said to have the Perron-Frobenius property if it has a positive dominant eigenvalue that corresponds to a nonnegative eigenvector. Matrices having this and similar properties are studied in this paper. Characterizations of collections of such matrices are given in terms of the spectral projector. Some combinatorial, spectral, and topological properties of such matrices are presented...

Perron-frobenius Theory for Complex Matrices

The purpose of this paper is to present a unified Perron-Frobenius Theory for nonnegative, for real not necessarily nonnegative and for general complex matrices. The sign-real spectral radius was introduced for general real matrices. This quantity was shown to share certain properties with the Perron root of nonnegative matrices. In this paper we introduce the sign-complex spectral radius. Agai...

Ela Paths of Matrices with the Strong Perron-frobenius Property Converging to a given Matrix with the Perron-frobenius Property∗

A matrix is said to have the Perron-Frobenius property (strong Perron-Frobenius property) if its spectral radius is an eigenvalue (a simple positive and strictly dominant eigenvalue) with a corresponding semipositive (positive) eigenvector. It is known that a matrix A with the Perron-Frobenius property can always be the limit of a sequence of matrices A(ε) with the strong Perron-Frobenius prope...
