Generation of test matrices by similarity transformations

Posted

A method for obtaining test matrices with a prescribed distribution of characteristic roots is given. The process consists of using particularly simple similarity transformations to generate full matrices from canonical forms. The matrices generated also have known characteristic vectors, inverses and determinants.
