Abstract

Given a square nonnegative matrix \(A\), a simple algorithm is suggested for constructing a stability indicator characterizing the localization of its spectrum in the unit disk. Theorems are proved which establish the possibility of using the maximum of \(1-\det(I-J)\) over all possible principal submatrices \(J\) of \(A\) as a suitable indicator and give conditions under which such a maximum can be calculated only over a certain chain of leading principal submatrices. Applied problems that need such constructions and a relationship between the obtained results and similar results established for a number of matrices of special form are considered.
