Summary

In this note, the minimal Gerschgorin setG is defined for a matrixA, relative to a matrixD and a familyF of norms. This minimal Gerschgorin set is shown to be an inclusion region for the eigenvalues of a related collection\(\widehat\Omega \) of matrices, i.e.,

$$\sigma (\widehat\Omega ) \subseteq G.$$

The main result is a necessary and sufficient condition for equality to hold in the above inclusion. In addition, examples are given, one for which equality does not hold in the above inclusion.
