No arbitrary product of matrices has eigenvalue 1?
Consider the matrix $D$, adjacency matrix of an undirected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, with the notation that $d_{i,i}=0,\forall i$.
The matrices $A_i$ are constructed from Identity matrices, $I_{n*n}$...

The largest eigenvalue of a binary matrix with specific density
I would like to find the largest eigenvalue of an $n \times n$ binary matrix of density $p$, i.e., with $p n^{2}$ ones and $(1-p) n^{2}$ zeros. Any idea or reference is welcome.

Properties of eigenvalues of general nonnegative matrices
I am aware, that an answer to this question can be found via Perron-Frobenius theory or something very similar, but unfortunately I am far from being an expert in the field and I am unable to find the ...

Growth rates of ‘sub-traces’ of matrices
Consider an aperiodic, non-negative and non-zero $m\times m$ matrix $A$. Here aperiodic means that there exists an integer $n$ such that every entry of $A^n$ is strictly positive. By the Perron–...

Solution of a manipulated equation vs the maximum eigenvalue and eigenvector of a non-negative matrix
Lets assume we have the following equation:
$AU=\lambda U \Rightarrow\left[
\begin{array}{c|c|c}
0 &A_{12}&A_{13}\\
\hline
A_{21}& 0& A_{23}\\
\hline
A_{31}&A_{32}&0
\end{...
