  • Abstract
    Two sufficient conditions under which the roots of the determinant of a given ( m \\times m ) matrix polynomial of n th order lie in the open left-half plane have been obtained. The first condition is given in terms of the positive definiteness of an ( mn \\times mn ) symmetric matrix, while the second condition is given in terms of the positive definiteness of an ( m \\times m ) matrix that is a function of s , Re s \\leq 0 . These conditions are represented in terms of rational functions of the coefficient matrices of the given matrix polynomial. Therefore, the explicit computation of the determinant polynomial is not required.
