ON MATRIX FUNCTIONS WITH LINEAR EIGENVALUES

From MaRDI portal





A theorem of \textit{T. S. Motzkin} and \textit{O. Taussky} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 73, 108--114 (1952; Zbl 0048.00905) and ibid. 80, 387--401 (1955; Zbl 0067.25401)], states that, given a matrix pencil \(M(t)=A+tB\) that is globally diagonalizable by an entire invertible matrix function, then all the eigenvalues of \(M(t)\) are linear functions of \(t\). The paper under review examines other conditions, in terms of the characteristic polynomial, that imply linear eigenvalues. In connection with this problem, necessary and sufficient conditions for a polynomial \(p(\lambda, t)\) in the variable \(\lambda\) to possess all of its roots linear in \(t\) are determined.
