Compact Semigroups of Positive Matrices
T. T. West · Mathematical Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy · 2003
The spectral theory of compact monothetic semigroups of linear operators examined by Kaashoek and West in [1], [2] together with two block matrix theorems where the blocks are either strictly positive or zero are used to give an exposition of Perron-Frobenius theory of positive matrices. The approach in this paper is based on ideas of Smyth and West developed
