Numerical ranges of companion matrices: flat portions on the boundary

From MaRDI portal
Publication:3143336




Abstract: Criterion for a companion matrix to have a certain number of flat portions on the boundary of its numerical range is given. The criterion is specialized to the cases of 3-by-3 and 4-by-4 matrices. In the latter case, it is proved that a 4-by-4 unitarily irreducible companion matrix cannot have 3 flat portions on the boundary of its numerical range. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the main results.
