Abstract: Hiriart-Urruty and Seeger have posed the problem of finding the maximal possible angle $het{a}_{max}(mathcal{C}_n)$ between two copositive matrices of order $n$. They have proved that $het{a}_{max}(mathcal{C}_2)=frac34pi$ and conjectured that $het{a}_{max}(mathcal{C}_n)$ is equal to $frac34pi$ for all $ngeq2$. In this note we disprove their conjecture by showing that $li{m}_{nightarrowinfty}het{a}_{max}(mathcal{C}_n)=pi$. Our proof uses a construction from algebraic graph theory. We also consider the related problem of finding the maximal angle between a nonnegative matrix and a positive semidefinite matrix of the same order.
