Abstract: Motivated by the conjectures formulated in 2003 by Tunc{c}el et al., we study interlacing properties of the eigenvalues of $AotimesB+BotimesA$ for pairs of $n$-by-$n$ matrices $A,B$. We prove that for every pair of symmetric matrices (and skew-symmetric matrices) with one of them at most rank two, the emph{odd spectrum} (those eigenvalues determined by skew-symmetric eigenvectors) of $AotimesB+BotimesA$ interlaces its emph{even spectrum} (those eigenvalues determined by symmetric eigenvectors). Using this result, we also show that when $nleq3$, the odd spectrum of $AotimesB+BotimesA$ interlaces its even spectrum for every pair $A,B$. The interlacing results also specify the structure of the eigenvectors corresponding to the extreme eigenvalues. In addition, we identify where the conjecture(s) and some interlacing properties hold for a number of structured matrices. We settle the conjectures of Tunc{c}el et al. and show they fail for some pairs of symmetric matrices $A,B$, when $ngeq4$ and the ranks of $A$ and $B$ are at least $3$.
