Associated to a squarematrix all of whose entries are real Laurent polynomials in several variables with no negative coefficients is an ordered “dimension” module introduced by Tuncel, with additional structure, which acts as an invariant for topological Markov chains, and is also an invariant for actions of tori on AF C*-algebras. In describing this invariant, we are led naturally to eventuall...

It is proved that by using bounds of eigenvalues of an interval matrix, someconditions for checking positive deniteness and stability of interval matricescan be presented. These conditions have been proved previously with variousmethods and now we provide some new proofs for them with a unity method.Furthermore we introduce a new necessary and sucient condition for checkingstability of interval...
