Summary
The number of independent invariants ofn×n matricesA, B and their products on which the eigenvalues λ(μ) of the matrix pencilA+μB depend is determined by means of the theory of algebraic invariants and combinatorial analysis. Formulas are displayed for coefficients for the calculation of λ(μ) forn≤5.
Zusammenfassung
Wir bestimmen die Anzahl der unabhängigen Invarianten dern×n MatrizenA, B und ihrer Produkte, von denen die Eigenwerte λ(μ) der MatrixbüschelA+μB abhängen, mittels der Theorie der algebraischen Invarianten und mittels kombinatorischer Analyse. Formeln für Koeffizienten zur Berechnung von λ(μ) werden angegeben fürn≤5.
