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