What is known about the spectrum of a Cauchy matrix?

Math people: A Cauchy matrix is an $m$-by-$n$ matrix $A$ whose elements have the form $a_{i,j} = \frac{1}{x_i-y_j}$, with $x_i \neq y_j$ for all $(i, j)$, and the $x_i$'s and $y_i$'s belong to a ...

Effect of removing a Hamiltonian cycle on the Laplacian spectrum

Notation: $\lambda_{\max}(G)$ is the largest eigenvalue of the Laplacian matrix of the graph $G$ (aka the Laplacian index of $G$). Now suppose $G$ is a Hamiltonian graph with Hamiltonian cycle $C$. ...

positiveness of the inverse solution to Sylvester equation

I need to construct a non-negative matrix with desired eigenvalues. To that end, I came up with a block matrix of the following form: $$ \mathbf{M} = \begin{vmatrix} \mathbf{A} & \mathbf{b} \\\ ...

Eigenvalues of permutations of a real matrix: how complex can they be?

This is sort of complementary to this thread. I’ll repeat the definitions here: For a matrix $M\in GL(n,\mathbb R)$, consider the $n!$ matrices obtained by permutations of the rows (say) of $M$ and ...

Eigenvalues of permutations of a real matrix: can they all be real?

For a matrix $M\in GL(n,\mathbb R)$, consider the $n!$ matrices obtained by permutations of the rows (say) of $M$ and define the total spectrum $TS(M)$ as the union of all their spectra (counting ...

Eigenvalues of an amplification matrix

Let $A$ and $B$ square real matrices. I know that the matrix $A+B$ has 1 as eigenvalue of multiplicity 1 and the others eigenvalues have their modulus <1. Can we say something about the eigenvalues ...

Can an accumulation point be an eigenvalue?

For an discrete (separable) infinite-dimensional Hilbert Space with a compact operator, 0 is always an accumulation point (https://www.math.ucdavis.edu/~hunter/book/ch9.pdf). Does this mean its part ...

Which matrix/operator in a cone has the smallest negative spectral part?

Background: Let $\mathcal{K}$ be set (convex cone, if you like) of symmetric matrices of order $n$. Each matrix $A \in \mathcal{K}$ can be decomposed in a unique way as $A=A_{+}-A_{-}$, where ...

eigenvalues of two nonnegative matrices

Let $A$ and $B$ be symmetric non-negative matrices. If $A\geq B$ (i.e., $A-B$ is a nonnegative matrix), can we say that $\lambda_i(A) \geq \lambda_i(B)$ for all $i$, where $\lambda_i$ denotes the ...
