A family of test matrices

Posted

A family of test matrices with the following properties is described here: (a) an explicit inverse is given; (b) the characteristic polynomial is easily obtained; (c) a large measure of control over the eigenvalues is possible; (d) in special cases the eigenvalues and eigenvectors can be given explicitly, and the P-condition number can be arbitrarily assigned.
