TL;DR: In this article, an 0(&t) algorithm for computing the Kronecker structure of an arbitrary m x n pencil XE -A is presented. But the algorithm is shown to be numerically stable, because only unitary transformations are used.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The cone of positive semidefinite matrices which have zeros in prescribed entries is studied to obtain information and, if possible, describe the ranks of external matrices in such cones in terms of the pattern of prescribed zeros.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the balanced stochastic realization is introduced as a balanced solution to the continuous time positive real equations and the dual positive real equation and the structure of the associated balanced spectral factors is derived, the main result being a product decomposition of the spectral factors.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a notion of poles and zeros is developed in terms of factorizations of operator polynomials with time-varying coefficients, which is applied to the study of zero-input response and asymptotic stability.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral radius ϱ(A) of a simple connected graph with n vertices and m edges is defined as the adjacency matrix of the graph G and A is a matrix whose spectral radius is equal to 2m − n + 1 with equality if and only if G is isomorphic to one of the following two graphs: (a) the star K1,n−1; (b) the complete graph Kn.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Two models of parallel multisplitting chaotic iterations for solving large nonsingular systems of equations Ax = b are considered and it is shown that when A is a monotone matrix and all the splittings are weak regular, both models lead to convergent schemes.

TL;DR: In this article, methods for identifying a Lie algebra L, given by its structure constants, have been given, which lead to simple algorithms that have been implemented as computer programs, involving some symbolic manipulations.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, bounds for the number of null elements in an eigenvector, for the multiplicity of eigenvalue and for the magnitudes of the second and last eigenvalues of a general or bipartite graph are established.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, Cramer's rule and Cayley-Hamilton theorem are provided in the so-called max algebra, which consists of the set of reals provided with two operations: maximization and addition.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Among the graphs with a prescribed number of edges, those with maximal index are determined as discussed by the authors, which confirms a conjecture of Brualdi and Hoffman, and thus confirms the existence of the maximal index conjecture.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider systems of linear differential and algebraic equations in which some of the variables are distinguished as external variables, and give an operational form for this definition of equivalence, i.e., a set of system transformations having the property that two systems are equivalent if and only if they can be taken into each other by transformations from that set.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors survey the known forms to which a given complex matrix may be reduced by unitary or general consimilarity and describe a canonical form to which it can be reduced.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss two applications of doubly stochastic matrices and related matrices: satellite-switched, time-division multiple access systems and graph automorphisms.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between multivariate scattering Hurwitz polynomials and multivariate complex reactance functions is exploited to prove that a specified set of bivariate interval polynomial is characterizable by the scatteringHurwitz property from tests on a finite set of extreme bivariate polynomorphials.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The hyperbolic rotation algorithm is shown to be forward (weakly) stable and, in fact, comparable to an orthogonal downdating method showing to be backward stable by Stewart, and how the method's accuracy depends upon the conditioning is shown.
