Numerical error on the spectrum of a matrix

Let $Q=(q_{j,k})_{1\le j,k\le N}$ be a (Hermitian) $N\times N$ matrix with complex-valued entries. The matrix $Q$ is given numerically and the absolute error on each entry is bounded above by a (small)...

Upper bound on largest eigenvalue of a real symmetric $n \times n$ matrix with all main diagonal entries positive, everywhere else nonpositive

Is there a good analytic upper bound on the largest eigenvalue of a real symmetric n*n matrix with all main diagonal entries strictly positive, all other entries <=0 with typically many of them ...
