If all elements of an irreducible matrix
are nonnegative, then
is an eigenvalue
of
and all the eigenvalues of
lie on the disk
where, if
is a set of nonnegative numbers (which are not all
zero),
Furthermore, if has exactly
eigenvalues
on the circle
, then the set of all its eigenvalues
is invariant under rotations by
about the origin.
