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.

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{...
