Periodic, irreducible, powerful ray pattern matrices (Q2484399)

The authors first show that an irreducible powerful ray pattern \(A\) is ray diagonally similar to \(\omega(A)\) for some ray \(\omega\). They obtain several results on irreducible powerfull ray patterns and irreducible periodic ray patterns. A generalization of the Perron-Frobenius Theorem to a subclass of complex matrices is in Section 4.
