Computing the eigenvalues of $A+E$ where $A$ is an upper triangular matrix whose diagonal entries are all zero and $E$ is a rank one matrix
Let us consider the backward-shift matrix $B=(b_{ij})\in M_n(\mathbb{R})$ whose entries are given by $b_{k,k+1}=1$ and the other entries are all 0. We also consider $X=(x_{ij})\in M_n(\mathbb{R})$ ...

Eigenvectors of the symmetric tridiagonal matrices whose entries above the diagonal are all the same
Let us consider the real symmetric tridiagonal matrix $T=(t_{kl})$ in $M_n(\mathbb{R})$ with
$$t_{1,2}=t_{2,3}=\cdots=t_{n-1,n}=1$$
How can we compute the eigenvectors of $T$?
