Abstract:
Necessary and sufficient conditions under which a matrix-valued function of a complex argument is inverse to a weakly hyperbolic or a hyperbolic pencil are established. For hyperbolic pencils, a constructive description of the inverse functions in terms of their partial fraction expansion with matrix coefficients is presented.
Keywords:rational matrix functions, weakly hyperbolic matrix pencils, hyperbolic matrix pencils, root zones of a pencil, Nevanlinna functions.
