Abstract
This paper is concerned with a survey of the spectral properties of finite Hermitian Toeplitz matrices. It contains in particular a detailed analysis of the algebraic structure of the Toeplitz eignespaces and of the zero location properties of their related eignepolynomials. The theory of pseudo-Carathéodory and pseudo-lossless functions of finite index is shown to provide a function theoretic interpretation of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a Hermitian Teoplitz matrix; most known results in the field fit naturally into this fremework.
