Ito, Naoharu; Küstner, Reinhold; Wimmer, Harald K. Self-inversive matrix polynomials with semisimple spectrum on the unit circle. (English) Zbl 1235.15008 Oper. Matrices 5, No. 3, 495-503 (2011). Let \(A_i\in\mathbb C^{n\times n}\), \(P(z)=\sum_{i=1}^kA_iz^i\) and \(\det A(z)\) is not identically zero. \(\lambda\in\mathbb C\) is said to be a characteristic value of \(P(z)\) if \(\det P(\lambda)=0\), \(\lambda\) is said to be semisimple if the corresponding elementary divisors are linear. In the paper a condition under which all characteristic values of a matrix polynomial are semisimple and lie on the unit circle is given.
