Eigenvalues of Toeplitz Matrices

701 days ago by math.cohen

At the Golden Section MAA meeting I heard a nice talk by Estelle Basor.    I saw some nice pictures and decided to try making some with Sage.

A Toepliz Matrix starts with some sequence ... a_{-n}, ..., a_0, a_1, ....  We will only use 2n+1 elements, n on each side of a_0.
## make the underlying sequence a_{-n} .... a_0 ... a_n n=20 # size of sequence seq = [] ## sample sequence is simple 1/k for k in xrange(-n,n+1): if k==0: seq.append(0) else: seq.append(1/k) print "seq is ", seq 
        
seq is  [-1/20, -1/19, -1/18, -1/17, -1/16, -1/15, -1/14, -1/13, -1/12,
-1/11, -1/10, -1/9, -1/8, -1/7, -1/6, -1/5, -1/4, -1/3, -1/2, -1, 0, 1,
1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/7, 1/8, 1/9, 1/10, 1/11, 1/12, 1/13, 1/14,
1/15, 1/16, 1/17, 1/18, 1/19, 1/20]
seq is  [-1/20, -1/19, -1/18, -1/17, -1/16, -1/15, -1/14, -1/13, -1/12, -1/11, -1/10, -1/9, -1/8, -1/7, -1/6, -1/5, -1/4, -1/3, -1/2, -1, 0, 1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/7, 1/8, 1/9, 1/10, 1/11, 1/12, 1/13, 1/14, 1/15, 1/16, 1/17, 1/18, 1/19, 1/20]

Take our sequence and build a Python array (a list of lists).  Python lets me "slice" through my sequence with a window size of n.
## build a list that will be converted to a matrix B = [] j=n for i in xrange(0,n+1): B.append(seq[j:j+n+1]) # slice through the sequence to get rows j=j-1 show(B)
