Abstract

Denote acircled plusb=max(a,b), and acircle times operatorb=a+b for a,bset membership, variantR and extend this pair of operations to matrices and vectors in the same way as in conventional linear algebra, that is, if A=(aij),B=(bij),C=(cij) are real matrices or vectors of compatible sizes then C=Acircle times operatorB if View the MathML source for all i,j. The symbol diag(d1,d2,…,dn) denotes the matrix D with diagonal elements equal to d1,d2,…,dn and off-diagonal elements equal to -∞. For an arbitrary parameter εset membership, variantR and given square matrices A=(aij), View the MathML source, we study the -parametric eigenproblem, i.e. problem of finding all xε=(x1(ε),x2(ε),…,xn(ε)) and λε, satisfying

where Aε=Acircle times operatorD. We introduce some properties of general -parametric eigenproblem and the O(n3) algorithm which gives all solutions of the 1-parametric eigenproblem with respect to ε.
