In this paper, we give a new Z-eigenvalue localization set for Z-eigenvalues of structured fourth order tensors. As applications, a sharper upper bound for the Z-spectral radius of weakly symmetric nonnegative fourth order tensors is obtained and a new Z-eigenvalue based sufficient condition for the positive definiteness of fourth order tensors is also presented. Finally, numerical examples are given to verify the efficiency of our results.

Abstract A new eigenvalue localization set for tensors is given and proved to be tighter than those presented by Qi (J. Symbolic Comput., 2005, 40, 1302-1324) and Li et al. (Numer. Linear Algebra Appl., 2014, 21, 39-50). As an application, a weaker checkable sufficient condition for the positive (semi-)definiteness of an even-order real symmetric tensor is obtained. Meanwhile, an S-type E-eigenvalue localization set for tensors is given and proved to be tighter than that presented by Wang et al. (Discrete Cont. Dyn.-B, 2017, 22(1), 187-198). As an application, an S-type upper bound for the Z-spectral radius of weakly symmetric nonnegative tensors is obtained. Finally, numerical examples are given to verify the theoretical results.

M-eigenvalues of fourth-order partially symmetric tensors play important roles in the nonlinear elastic material analysis and the entanglement problem of quantum physics. In this paper, we introduce M-identity tensor and establish two M-eigenvalue inclusion intervals with n parameters for fourth-order partially symmetric tensors, which are sharper than some existing results. Numerical examples are proposed to verify the efficiency of the obtained results. As applications, we provide some checkable sufficient conditions for the positive definiteness and establish bound estimations for the M-spectral radius of fourth-order partially symmetric nonnegative tensors.

Based on the S-type eigenvalue localization set developed by Li et al. (Linear Algebra Appl. 493 (2016) 469-483) for tensors, a modified S-type eigenvalue localization set for tensors is established in this paper by excluding some sets from the existing S-type eigenvalue localization set developed by Huang et al. (arXiv: 1602.07568v1, 2016). The proposed set containing all eigenvalues of tensors is much sharper compared with that employed by Li et al. and Huang et al. As its applications, a criteria, which can be utilized for identifying the nonsingularity of tensors, is developed. In addition, we provide new upper and lower bounds for the spectral radius of nonnegative tensors and the minimum H-eigenvalue of weakly irreducible strong M-tensors. These bounds are superior to some previous results, which is illustrated by some numerical examples.

Two Z-eigenvalue inclusion theorems for tensors presented by Wang et al. (Discrete Cont. Dyn.-B, 2017, 22(1): 187-198) are first generalized to E-eigenvalue inclusion theorems. And then a tighter E-eigenvalue inclusion theorem for tensors is established. Based on the new set, a sharper upper bound for the Z-spectral radius of weakly symmetric nonnegative tensors is obtained. Finally, numerical examples are given to verify the theoretical results.

AbstractIn this paper, we consider the Z-eigenpair of a tensor. A lower bound and an upper bound for the Z-spectral radius of a weakly symmetric nonnegative irreducible tensor are presented. Furthermore, upper bounds of Z-spectral radius of nonnegative tensors and general tensors are given. The proposed bounds improve some existing ones. Numerical examples are reported to show the effectiveness of the proposed bounds.

In this paper, an upper bound on the spectral radius ρ ( A ∘ B ) for the Hadamard product of two nonnegative matrices (A and B) and the minimum eigenvalue τ ( C ★ D ) of the Fan product of two M-matrices (C and D) are researched. These bounds complement some corresponding results on the simple type bounds. In addition, a new lower bound on the minimum eigenvalue of the Fan product of several M-matrices is also presented. These results and numerical examples show that the new bounds improve some existing results.

AbstractA set in the complex plane which involves n parameters in [0, 1] is given to localize all eigenvalues different from 1 for stochastic matrices. As an application of this set, an upper bound for the moduli of the subdominant eigenvalues of a stochastic matrix is obtained. Lastly, we fix n parameters in [0, 1] to give a new set including all eigenvalues different from 1, which is tighter than those provided by Shen et al. (Linear Algebra Appl. 447 (2014) 74-87) and Li et al. (Linear and Multilinear Algebra 63(11) (2015) 2159-2170) for estimating the moduli of subdominant eigenvalues.

A numerical method for solving fourth-order integro-differential equations is presented. This method is based on replacement of the unknown function by a truncated series of well-known shifted Chebyshev expansion of functions. An approximate formula of the integer derivative is introduced. The introduced method converts the proposed equation by means of collocation points to system of algebraic equations with shifted Chebyshev coefficients. Thus, by solving this system of equations, the shifted Chebyshev coefficients are obtained. Special attention is given to study the convergence analysis and derive an upper bound of the error of the presented approximate formula. Numerical results are performed in order to illustrate the usefulness and show the efficiency and the accuracy of the present work.

We present a new modified Newton's method with third-order convergence and compare it with the Jarratt method, which is of fourth-order. Based on this new method, we obtain a family of Newton-type methods, which converge cubically. Numerical examples show that the presented method can compete with Newton's method and other known third-order modifications of Newton's method.
