  • Abstract
    Given two real lower Hessenberg matrices A and B of order n and m (m \\leq n) , respectively, a symmetric matrix of order n is constructed such that whenever S is nonsingular, A and B do not have an eigenvalue in common. When S is singular, its nullity, is the same as the number of common eigenvalues between A and B . A well-known classical result on the relative primeness of two polynomials and the associated Bezoutian matrix is included as a special case.
