Circulants and critical points of polynomials

Abstract: We prove that for any circulant matrix C of size n × n with the monic characteristic polynomial p(z), the spectrum of its (n − 1) × (n − 1) submatrix Cn−1 constructed with first n − 1 rows and columns of C consists of all critical points of p(z). Using this fact we provide a simple proof for the Schoenberg conjecture recently proved by R. Pereira and S. Malamud. We also prove full generalization of a higher order Schoenberg-type conjecture proposed by M. de Bruin and A. Sharma and recently proved by W.S.

“…We then study differentiators following the work of Pereira [29] and show that Johnson's conjecture holds for spectra realizable via complex Hadamard similarities. Along the way, we provide an alternate proof to a result of Malamud [25] and extend the results on circulant matrices by Kushel and Tyaglov [20]. Additionally, we use these results to provide a new proof of a classical theorem on the interlacing roots and critical points for polynomials.…”

“…Cheung and Ng [5], recognize that other constructions of a d-companion matrix exist. They provide methods for constructing such matrices which have already proven fruitful in the study of circulant matrices [20]. Future research on finding alternative constructions to the d-companion matrix may be critical to solving this conjecture.…”

“…Then every pn ´1q ˆpn ´1q principal submatrix of C has characteristic polynomial 1 n p 1 pzq. We note that, while the original statement of this result given in [KT16] is in terms of the pn ´1q pn ´1q upper left principal submatrix of C, the result and proof work for all pn ´1q ˆpn ´1q principal submatrices of C. In fact, any two pn ´1q ˆpn ´1q principal submatrices of C can be seen to be permutationally similar and so have the same characteristic polynomial.…”
