Abstract

In this paper, the generalized eigenvalue problem for a pair of interval matrices is studied. First, the interval enclosures of every generalized eigenvalue and corresponding eigenvector for a pair of symmetric interval matrices are determined. One of these matrices is positive definite and nonnegative invertible. Next, the enclosure of all the generalized eigenvalues for a pair of interval matrices is derived under some assumptions, in which both of the interval matrices are not necessarily symmetric.
