Abstract

We show that ifT(F) is a selfadjoint block Toeplitz operator generated by a trigonometric matrix polynomialF, then the spectrum ofT(F) as well as the limiting set Λ(F) of the eigenvalues of the truncationsT n (F) is the union of a finite collection of segments (the spectral range ofF) and at most a finite set of points for which we give an upper bound.
