May 2, 2021 at 19:06 comment added Carlo Beenakker My surmise is that you need one of the $k_i$'s, say $k_m$ to be larger than the sum of all the others, to have $k_m-\sum_{i\neq m}k_i$ zero eigenvalues.

May 2, 2021 at 17:56 comment added AdamNie I think I understand what you meant now, thanks a lot. A further question: if in general I have $k_1<k_2<\ldots<k_n$ diagonal blocks of zero, without the assumption $k_n>\sum_{i\ne n}k_i$, can I say anything at all about the matrix?
May 2, 2021 at 17:43 comment added Carlo Beenakker this root would cancel with the pole of the inverse $X^{-1}$.

May 2, 2021 at 16:44 comment added AdamNie I see. What about the first determinant there, wouldn't that have a root of multiplicity k2-k1?
