An equivalent representation of constant sum matrices in terms of block-structured matrices is given in this paper. This provides an easy way of constructing all constant sum matrices, including those with further symmetry properties. The block representation gives a convenient description of the dihedral equivalence of such matrices. It is also shown how it can be used to study their spectral properties, giving explicit formulae for eigenvalues and eigenvectors in special situations, as well as for quasi-inverses when these exist.

The vec operator transforms a matrix to a column vector by stacking each column on top of the next. It is useful to write the vec of a block-structured matrix in terms of the vec operator applied to each of its component blocks. We derive a simple formula for doing so, which applies regardless of whether the blocks are of the same or of different sizes.

This note is concerned with the spectral properties of matrices associated with linear smoothers. We derive analytical results on the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of smoothing matrices by interpreting the latter as perturbations of matrices belonging to algebras with known spectral properties, such as the circulant and the generalized tau. These results are used to characterize the properties of a smoother in terms of an approximate eigen-decomposition of the associated smoothing matrix.

AbstractWe consider backward errors for an eigenproblem of a class of symmetric generalised centrosymmetric matrices and skew-symmetric generalised skew-centrosymmetric matrices, which are extensions of symmetric centrosymmetric and skew-symmetric skew-centrosymmetric matrices. Explicit formulae are presented for the computable backward errors for approximate eigenpairs of these two kinds of structured matrices. Numerical examples illustrate our results.

We study the spectral properties of the generators of circulant quantum Markov semigroups. We can find an explicit expression for eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the infinitesimal generator and, in particular, we prove that the spectral gap is strictly positive. By proper techniques, we can reduce the problem on non-commutative algebras to the analogous one for a classical process with a circulant generator.

We prove the existence of the limiting spectral distribution (LSD) of symmetric triangular patterned matrices and also establish the joint convergence of sequences of such matrices. For the particular case of the symmetric triangular Wigner matrix, we derive expression for the moments of the LSD using properties of Catalan words. The problem of deriving explicit formulae for the moments of the LSD does not seem to be easy to solve for other patterned matrices. The LSD of the non-symmetric triangular Wigner matrix also does not seem to be easy to establish.

We study the perturbative power series expansions of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a general tridiagonal (Jacobi) matrix of dimension d . The (small) expansion parameters are the entries of the two diagonals of length d −1 sandwiching the principal diagonal that gives the unperturbed spectrum. The solution is found explicitly in terms of multivariable (Horn-type) hypergeometric series in 3 d −5 variables in the generic case. To derive the result, we first rewrite the spectral problem for the Jacobi matrix as an equivalent system of algebraic equations, which are then solved by the application of the multivariable Lagrange inversion formula. The corresponding Jacobi determinant is calculated explicitly. Explicit formulae are also found for any monomial composed of eigenvector's components.
