Tight upper bound on a ratio involving symmetric PSD matrices and Kronecker products

Let $\mathbf{A}_i \in \mathbb{R}^{d \times d}$ ($i = 1, \dots, T$) be symmetric positive semidefinite (PSD) matrices. Define the quantity $$ m = \frac{\lambda_{\max}\left(\sum_{i=1}^T \mathbf{A}_i^2\...

square matrix depending on complex value: spectral radius continous? [closed]

Let $A(z)$ be a $n\times n$ square matrix depending on the complex value $z$ and $\lambda_z$ is its spectral radius. Is $\lambda_z$ continous or is it possible that it can jump? Or maybe someone knows ...

Maximal eigenvalue of a correlation matrix with some entries fixed as zeros

Let $A$ be real a positive semidefinite matrix of dimension $n$ and with $1$s on the diagonal. Those matrices are sometimes referred to as correlation matrices. From the positivity of the minors, we ...

Largest eigenvalue of matrix A smaller than 1, what about B when A=B+C? [closed]

Suppose I have a square matrix $A$ that only has non-negative real entries and is not symmetric and not primitive either. It has no "special" structure we could exploit. I know that the ...

Projecting onto space of matrices with spectral radius less than one

Consider the space $$ S = \left\{ A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n} : \mathrm{SpectralRadius}(|A|) \leq 1 \right\}$$ where $|A|$ is the entry-wise absolute value. Given a matrix $M \in \mathbb{R}^{n\times ...

Upper bounds on absolute eigenvalue of sum of two matrix

We have this iteration $$X_{k+1}=(G\cdot Jf+H)X_k+C$$ with $G$ is symmetric and nonnegative, $H$ is nonnegative. $Jf$ is the jacobian matrix of some function $f$ and we can assume it satisfy certain ...

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.
