Sep 6, 2023 at 17:02 comment added Jochen Glueck @MikhailKatz: Using just Gelfand's formula can't do the job since Gelfand's formula also holds in infinite dimensions while contuity of the spectral radius does not.
Sep 6, 2023 at 15:14 comment added Iosif Pinelis @MikhailKatz : (i) I think the argument is already very simple. (ii) To deal with the maximum of the moduli of all the eigenvalues, we need to deal with all the eigenvalues somehow. Of course, enumerating them is only one way to do that. Alternatively, one can e.g. describe the continuity of the set of eigenvalues the way it is done in Section 5.1 of Chapter II of Kato's book, linked in my answer. (iii) Like you, I don't see a simple (or any other) way to use Gelfand's formula here.
Sep 6, 2023 at 14:37 comment added Mikhail Katz By Gelfand's formula, the spectral radius can be computed as the limit of operator norms of the powers of the matrix, but I don't see immediately how to derive continuity. There should be a simpler argument than enumerating all the eigenvalues.
