Abstract

In the present paper the authors make an attempt to give a uniform description of the main properties of tridiagonal, band, block tridiagonal and block band matrices and their inverses. Some basic concepts are recalled and also some new results are presented.

Dedicated to Professor I. Gohberg on his 60th birthday.

Visiting at the Dipartimento di Informatica of the University of Pisa under the support of GNAFA-CNR
