Localization Theorems for Nonlinear Eigenvalue Problems

David Bindel, Amanda Hood · SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications · 2013

Let $T : \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^{n \times n}$ be a matrix-valued function that is analytic on some simply connected domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}$. A point $\lambda \in \Omega$ is an eigenvalue if the matrix $T(\lambda)$ is singular. In this paper, we describe new localization results for nonlinear eigenvalue problems that generalize Gershgorin's theorem, pseudospectral inclusion theorems, and the Bauer--Fike theorem. We use our results to analyze three nonlinear eigenvalue problems: an example from delay differential equations, a problem due to Hadeler, and a quantum resonance computation.
