In particular, under suitable assumptions on $f$, we establish an alternating sign relationship between the eigenvalues of $H_n(f)$, the eigenvalues of $T_n(f)$, and the quasi-uniform samples of $f$. Moreover, after fine-tuning a few known theorems on Toeplitz matrices, we use them to provide localization results for the eigenvalues of $H_n(f)$. Our study is motivated by the convergence analysis of the minimal residual (MINRES) method for the solution of real non-symmetric Toeplitz linear systems of the form $T_n(f)\\mathbf x=\\mathbf b$ after pre-multiplication of both sides by $Y_n$, as suggested by Pestana and Wathen.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-12-11T07:18:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "15B05", "15A18", "65F10" ], "keywords": [ "toeplitz matrix", "flipped toeplitz matrices", "spectral properties", "real non-symmetric toeplitz linear systems", "eigenvalues" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
