I the course of derivatios, we are also able to derive computatioal formulas for the eigevalues, eigevectors ad iverses of these matrices.

Itroductio A Toeplitz matrix is a matrix with values costat alog each (top-left to lowerright) diagoal. Several properties of these matrices are ow kow, icludig their eigevalues, eigevectors ad iverses. I particular, i a recet paper [4] by Dow, Toeplitz matrices of the form T = b c Þ a b c a b c 0 0 Þ a b where the corer elemets are the same, are discussed ad their explicit iverses are foud.

Therefore, it is of great iterest to fid out more about these matrices. I this paper, we derive the eigevalues ad their correspodig eigevectors as well as the iverse of A whe ac = 0 ad at least oe of the umbers Þ or þ is ot zero. Whe Þ = þ = 0, A reduces to the well-kow tridiagoal matrix about which much is kow. For geeral iformatio about Toeplitz matrices, the refereces i [4] ca be cosulted. For coveiece, the set of itegers, the set of oegative itegers, the set of real umbers ad the set of complex umbers are deoted by Z, N, R ad C respectively. The umber 1 is deoted by i. We will also set ÞZ =mþ m Z}; Þ C: I particular, ³Z deotes the set :::; 2³; ³; 0;³;2³;:::}. Toeplitz matrices are itimately related to boudary value problems ivolvig differece equatios. This relatioship has bee exploited i [10, 2] for fidig eigevalues or iverses of matrices arisig from differece operators. We will agai base our ivestigatio here o the method of differece equatios. For this reaso, we recall some termiologies used i [1]. Let l N be the set of complex sequeces of the form x =x k } k N edowed with the usual liear structure. A sequece of the form Þ; 0; 0;:::} is deoted by Þ (or by Þ if o cofusio is caused), ad the sequece 0; 1; 0; 0;:::} is deoted by h. Give two sequeces x =x k } ad y =y k } i l N, their covolutio is deoted by x y (or xy if o cofusio is caused) ad is defied by } xy = x k y k : k=0 It is easily verified that h 2 = h h =0; 0; 1; 0; 0;:::} ad h = h } N, = 1; 2;:::,isgiveby h = 1if = ad h = 0 otherwise. We will also set h 0 = 1. I the followig discussios, we eed, amog other thigs, the well-kow properties of the complex fuctios e z,siz ad cos z from the theory of complex aalysis. I particular, let z = x + iy C where x; y R. The (i) si z = 0 if ad oly if y = 0adx = k³ for some k Z, (ii) cos z =±1 if ad oly if y = 0adx = k³ for some k Z, ad (iii) if z = k³ for ay k Z, thesiz = 0, cos z = ±1, si.z=2/ = 0 ad cos.z=2/ = 0. N 2. Necessary coditios for the eigevalues Cosider the eigevalue problem A u = ½u,wherea; b; c ad Þ, þ are umbers i the complex plae C. We will assume that ac = 0. Whe ac = 0, the correspodig

Let ½ be a eigevalue (which may be complex) ad.u 1 ;:::;u / a correspodig eigevector of A. We may view the umbers u 1 ; u 2 ;:::;u respectively as the first, secod,..., ad the -th term of a ifiite (complex) sequece u =u i } i=0.sice A u = ½u ca be writte as u 0 = 0; au 0 + bu 1 + cu 2 = ½u 1 Þu ; au 1 + bu 2 + cu 3 = ½u 2 ;... (2.1) au 2 + bu 1 + cu = ½u 1 ; au 1 + bu + cu +1 = ½u þu 1 ; u +1 = 0; we see that the sequece u = u k } k=0 satisfies u 0 = 0; u +1 = 0ad au k 1 + bu k + cu k+1 = ½u k + f k ; k = 1; 2;:::; (2.2) where f 1 = Þu ad f = þu 1, while f k = 0fork = 1;. Note that u ad u 1 caot be 0 simultaeously, for otherwise from (2.1), u 2 = 0 ad iductively u 3 = u 4 = =u = 0, which is cotrary to the defiitio of a eigevector. Let f =f k } k=0 be defied above. The (2.2) ca be expressed as cu k+2 } k=0 + bu k+1} k=0 + au k} k=0 = ½u k+1} k=0 +f k+1} k=0 : By takig the covolutio of the above equatio with h 2 = h h, ad otig that ad hu +1 }= hu 1 ; u 2 ;:::}=0; u 1 ; u 2 ;:::}=u u 0 h 2 u +2 }= h 2 u 2 ; u 3 ;:::}=0; 0; u 2 ; u 3 ;:::}=u u 0 u 1 h; we have c.u u 0 u 1 h/ +.b ½/ h.u u 0 / + a h 2 u = h. f f 0 /. Solvig for u, ad substitutig f 0 = u 0 = 0, we obtai ( a h 2 +.b ½/ h + c ) u =.cu 1 + f / h: Sice c = 0, we ca divide the above equatio by a h 2 +.b ½/ h + c to obtai [1, Theorem 24] u =.cu 1 + f / h a h 2 +.b ½/ h + c : (2.3)

Basedothevalueof!, there are two cases to be cosidered. Case I. Suppose! = 0 so that + ad are distict. Sice + = c=a = 0, we may write ± = e ±i =² for some i the strip z C 0 Re z < 2³}, where ² = a=c ad cos =.½ b/=2²c : (2.4) Sice si =!=.2i²c/ = 0, we must also have = ³Z.

Suppose! = 0sothat + =. I this case,.½ b/ 2 = 4ac, ad (2.3) ca be writte as.cu 1 + f / h u = c ( 1 ² h 2..½ b/=2c/ h +..½ b/=2c/ 2 2) = h 1 ²c ( 1 ² h ).cu f / = 1 ²c } ² cu N 1; Þu ; 0;:::; þu 1 ; 0;:::} ; where The -th term of u ow becomes ² =.½ b/=2c =± a=c =±²: (2.12) u = 1 ²c ( cu1 ² Þu. 1/ ² 1 H. /þu 1. / ² ) ; 1: I particular, (2.13) ad u = ( cu 1 ² Þu. 1/ ² 1) = ²c (2.14) u +1 = 0 = ( cu / ² +1 Þu ² þu 1 ² ) = ²c: (2.15) This leads to the ecessary coditio Þc ² 2 ² ( ac. + 1/ Þþ. 1/ ) + aþ = 0: (2.16)

6 78 We-Chyua Yueh ad Sui Su Cheg [6] Oce we have foud the ² that satisfies (2.16), the we obtai by (2.12) We remark that sice (2.17) may be writte as ½ = b + 2 ²c: (2.17) ½ = b ± 2²c = b + 2²c cos ; = m³; m Z; we may combie (2.17) ad (2.11) ad assert that a eigevalue ½ of A is ecessarily of the form ½ = b + 2²c cos. Accordig to the above discussios, whe ½ is a eigevalue of A, it is the ecessary that either (2.10) or(2.16) holds. THEOREM 2.1. Let ½ be a eigevalue of the matrix A ad u =.u 1 ;:::;u / its correspodig eigevector. If (2.10) is satisfied for some the (2.5) ad (2.11) hold. z C 0 Re z < 2³}\³Z; THEOREM 2.2. Let ½ be a eigevalue of the matrix A ad u =.u 1 ;:::;u / its correspodig eigevector. If (2.16) is satisfied for ² = a=c or ² = a=c, the (2.13) ad (2.17) hold. Recall that the first ad last compoets u 1 ad u caot be zero simultaeously. There are some other iterestig properties for the eigevector u if! = 0. COROLLARY 2.3. Let ½ be a eigevalue of the matrix A ad u =.u 1 ;:::;u / its correspodig eigevector such that! =.b ½/ 2 4ac = 0. Let be the umber foud i Theorem 2.1. (i) If u 1 = 0, the Þ = 0. (ii) If u = 0 or u 1 = 0 the si = 0. (iii) If si = 0, the either u = 0 or Þ =±a², ad either u 1 = 0 or þ =±c². (iv) If þ = ±c²,theu = 0. (v) If Þ = ±a²,theu 1 = 0. (vi) If þ = ±c² ad u 1 = 0, the si = 0. (vii) If Þ = ±a² ad u = 0, the si = 0. (viii) If þ = ±c² ad Þ = ±a²,theu 1 = 0; u = 0 ad si = 0. PROOF. If u 1 = 0, the by (2.8)!=.2i/ + Þ² 1 si. 1/ = 0. Sice! = 0, we must have Þ = 0.

7 [7] Explicit eigevalues ad iverses of several Toeplitz matrices 79 If u = 0, the by (2.8) c² u 1 si = 0. Sice c² u 1 = 0, we must have si = 0. Similarly, if u 1 = 0, the by (2.9) Þ² u si = 0. Sice Þ² u = 0, we must have si = 0. If si = 0, the by (2.8), either u = 0or²csi + Þ² 1 si. 1/ = 0. Sice si. 1/ = si cos cos si = si whe si = 0; the latter implies ²c =±Þ² 1 or Þ =±a². Similarly, if si = 0, the by (2.9), either u 1 = 0orc² +1 si. + 1/ þ² si = 0. The latter implies þ =±c². Suppose þ = ±c². If u = 0, the si = 0. Sice u 1 = 0, (iii) implies þ =±c², which is a cotradictio. Suppose Þ = ±a². If u 1 = 0, the si = 0. Sice u = 0, (iii) implies Þ =±a², which is a cotradictio. Suppose þ = ±c² ad u 1 = 0. If si = 0, the by (iii), either u 1 = 0or þ =±c². This is a cotradictio. Suppose Þ = ±a² ad u = 0. If si = 0, the by (iii), either u = 0or Þ =±a². This is a cotradictio. The last assertio (viii) follows from (iv), (v) ad (vi), (vii). 3.

Eigevalues ad eigevectors of special Toeplitz matrices Now we ca apply the results of the previous sectios to fid the eigevalues ad the correspodig eigevectors of several Toeplitz matrices of the form A.For motivatio, cosider the case where Þ = þ = 0. The (2.16) is reduced to ² ac. + 1/ = 0 which is ot possible so that, i view of Theorem 2.2,! = 0ad½ caot be of the form b ± 2²c. I view of Theorem 2.1, (2.10) must hold for some = ³Z, or, si. + 1/ = 0forsome = ³Z. Cosequetly, = k³=. + 1/ for some k Z ad = ³Z. A eigevalue ½ k is the ecessarily of the form k³ ½ k = b + 2²c cos + 1 ; k = 1;:::;: A correspodig eigevector, from (3.4), is give by u.k/ = ² si k³ ; = 1;:::;; (4.1) + 1 which has also bee obtaied i [10] ad elsewhere. Fially, by reversig the argumets that lead to Theorem 2.1, we see that each ½ k is a eigevalue of A ad the correspodig vector u.k/ =.u.k/ 1 ;:::;u.k/ / defied by (4.1) is a correspodig eigevector. By similar ideas, we may ow derive the eigevalues ad the correspodig eigevectors for matrices of the form A.

Note that [.k 1/=2] +[.k + 2/=2] = k for ay positive iteger k. THEOREM 4.1. Suppose Þ = a = c ad þ = 0, or,þ = 0 ad þ = c = a.

For Þ = a = c ad þ = 0, sice þ = ±c², by Corollary 2.3 (iv) u = 0, while u 1 may or may ot be 0. If u 1 = 0, the si = 0. By (3.1) u = u si. 1/: si Sice si. +1 / = si cos. 1/ cos si. 1/ = si. 1/ whe si = 0, we may write u =.±u =si /si. + 1 /. Lettig ±u = si, we have u = si. + 1 /; = 1; 2;:::;: (4.8) If u 1 = 0, the by Corollary 2.3 (vi), si = 0. Hece we may apply (3.5), which leads to the same result (4.8) sice ² = 1 ad þ = 0. By substitutig give by (4.6) or (4.7)ito(4.8), we obtai the desired results (4.4) ad (4.5). For Þ = 0adþ = c = a, a similar argumet leads to u = si, = 1;:::;. By substitutig giveby(4.6)or(4.7), we obtai the desired results. Oce we have foud the eigevalues ad their correspodig eigevectors, we may reverse the argumets leadig to Theorem 2.1 ad verify that they are ideed the true eigevalues ad associated eigevectors of A. The proof is complete. We may follow the same argumets to show the followig. Suppose Þ = a = c ad þ = 0, or Þ = 0ad þ = c = a.

This yields ² = cos ± i si = e i : (4.19) Let ² = e i,thesicee ±i.2k 1/³ = 1, we may write ² = e i e i.2k 1/³,sothat ad e i = ²e i.2k 1/³= ; e i = ² 1 e i.2k 1/³= (4.20) cos = 1 ( ²e i.2k 1/³= + ² 1 e i.2k 1/³=) 2 = 1 [( ² + 1 ).2k 1/³ cos + i 2 ² ( ² 1 ) si ² ].2k 1/³ : Note that if a = c, the ² = 1 ad cos = ±1 for ay k Z. By otig that ² 2 c = a ad that si x ad cos x are periodic fuctios, we have fially for k = 1;:::; ½ k = b + 2²c cos = b +.a + c/ cos.2k 1/³ + i.a c/ si.2k 1/³ which is (4.16). If a = c, the ² = 1 ad we have cos = cos..2k 1/³=/ = ±1 so that k =. + 1/=2i(4.16). But the we have Theorem 2.2. Suppose! = 0 ad the coditios i Theorem 2.2 hold. The (2.16) is valid for Þ = a ad þ = c. Thus ² ² + 1 = 0; (4.21) which holds if a = c, ² = 1ad is odd. Furthermore, uder these coditios, the eigevalue must be of the form ½ = b 2c, which ca also be writte as ½.+1/=2 i (4.16). Hece (4.16) holds regardless of a = c or a = c. ;

14 86 We-Chyua Yueh ad Sui Su Cheg [14] I case the egative sig i e i holds, the ² = e i = e i e i.2k 1/³,adit is easily see that we may get the same result (4.16). To fid the correspodig eigevectors, we first cosider the case a = c. The ² = 1 so that þ = ±c² ad Þ = ±a². By Corollary 2.3 (viii), u 1 ; u 2 = 0ad si = 0, so we may apply (3.4). Sice by (4.20) e ±i = ² ± e ±i.2k 1/³=,wehave e ±i. / = ² ±. / e ±i. /.2k 1/³= = ² ±. / e i.2k 1/³= : By substitutig this ad Þ = a ito (3.4), u.k/ = 1 ( ( ² ² e i.2k 1/³= ² e i.2k 1/³=) 2i +² ( + ² e i.2k 1/³= ² + e i.2k 1/³=)) = 1 2i.²2 1/e i.2k 1/³= : By droppig the costat factor.² 2 1/=2i, weobtai(4.17). Next suppose a = c. By (4.19), ² = 1 implies cos = 1ad si = 0. The former implies =.2k 1/³= = ³Z so that k =. + 1/=2, the latter implies either oe of the u 1 or u may be zero. If u = 0, the by (3.1) a eigevector must be of the form u.k/ If u 1 = 0, the a eigevector must be of the form u.k/ liear combiatio u.k/ = k 1 si + k 2 si. 1/ = c 1 cos + c 2 si = si. = si. 1/. Hece the is a eigevector of A correspodig to ½ k. After substitutig =.2k 1/³=, we have (4.18)fora = c ad k =. + 1/=2. For a = c ad k =. + 1/=2, the = ³, which implies! = 0, ad we already have ² = ² = 1 from (4.21), hece we may apply either (3.6)or(3.7) to obtai u =. 1/ ; = 1;:::;; which is of the form u.+1/=2 i (4.18). Hece (4.18) is valid for a = c ad k = 1;:::;. The proof is complete. Now we may follow the same argumets to show the followig: Suppose Þ = a ad þ = c i the matrix A, the the eigevalues ad the correspodig eigevectors of A are give by ad ½ k = b +.a + c/ cos 2k³ u.k/ + i.a c/ si 2k³ ; k = 1; 2;:::; 2 k³ i = e ; = 1; 2;:::; (4.22)

If a = c, a alterative formula for the eigevectors is also give by [2] u.k/ = c 1 cos 2 k³ + c 2 si 2 k³ ; = 1; 2;:::;; where c 1 ad c 2 are two idepedet costats ot both equal to 0: I particular, if we take c 1 = 1adc 2 = i,wehave(4.22) as its special case. 5. Necessary coditios for the iverse The method used i the previous sectios may also be used to fid the iverse of the matrix A uder the coditio ac = 0. Let the (uique) iverse of A, if it exists, be deoted by g.1/ G = ( 1 g.2/ 1 g./ 1 g.1/ g.2/ g./) = g.1/ 2 g.2/ 2 g./ 2 : (5.1) g.1/ g.2/ g./ The A G = I. We may view the umbers 1 ; 2 ;:::; respectively as the first, secod,..., ad the -th term of a ifiite (complex) sequece = } N. Sice A G = I ca be expaded as with 0 = +1 = 0, we have a 0 + b 1 + c 2 = h k 1 Þg.k/ ; a 1 + b 2 + c 3 = h k ; 2 a 2 + b 3 + c 4 = h k ; 3... a 1 + b + c +1 = h k þg.k/ 1 ; a 1 + b + c +1 = h k + f.k/ ; = 1; 2;::: where Þ = 1; f.k/ = þ 1 = ; 0 otherwise: Sice c = 0, we may obtai =.cg.k/ 1 + h k + f.k/ / h : (5.2) a h 2 + b h + c

Suppose ¾ = 0sothat + ad are two differet umbers. Sice + = c=a = 0, we may write ± = e ±i =² for some i the strip z C 0 Re z < 2³}, where ² = a=c ad cos = b=2²c: (5.3) We also have si = ¾=.2i²c/ = 0. By the method of partial fractios, we may write i the form = 1 ( 1 ¾ h 1 ) (cg.k/ 1 + h k + f.k/) h; + h which gives the -th term of : = 2i ¾ cg.k/ 1 ² si Þ ² 1 si. 1/ + H. k/² k si. k/ H. /þ 1 ² si. / } (5.4) for 1.

Let the iverse of the matrix A be deoted by G = ( g.1/ g./) : If b 2 4ac = 0, the the ecessary ad sufficiet coditio for the iverse to exist is that (5.5) holds for some z C 0 Re z < 2³} that satisfies (5.3). Furthermore, if the iverse exists, the, 2 1, are give by (5.4), while 1 ad g.k/ are give by (5.6). If b 2 4ac = 0, the the ecessary ad sufficiet coditio for the iverse to exist is that (5.10) holds. Furthermore, if the iverse exists, the, 2 1, are give by (5.9), while 1 ad g.k/ are give by (5.11).

18 90 We-Chyua Yueh ad Sui Su Cheg [18] We remark that sufficiet coditios for the existece of the iverse of A are added i the above result. This is valid sice the above argumets ca be reversed. We remark also that sice cos z is 2³-periodic, the restrictio z C 0 Re z < 2³} ca be relaxed to C. Furthermore, sice if b 2 = 4ac, thecos = ±1ad= ³Z automatically (cf. Theorem 2.1). 6. Iverses of some special Toeplitz matrices We may ow apply Theorem 5.1 for fidig the iverses for several special Toeplitz matrices. For motivatio, cosider the case where Þ = þ = 0iA.Let be the k-th colum i the iverse G of A. If b 2 = 4ac, the by substitutig Þ = þ = 0 ito (5.10) to(5.12), we have 1 = ² ac. + 1/ = 0ad1 1 = ² k a. + 1 k/. Substitutig these ito (5.9), we obtai = 1 ( cg.k/ 1 ² + H. k/² k. k/ ) ²c = ² k ²c. + 1/. + 1 k/; < k; k. + 1 /; k: After fidig, we may directly reverse the argumets leadig to Theorem 5.1 ad coclude that G = ( g.1/ g.2/ g./). Now let us suppose that b 2 = 4ac. Suppose also that the iverse G of A exists ad is of the form (5.1). The substitutig Þ = þ = 0ito(5.5) (5.7), i view of Theorem 5.1, we ecessarily have cos = b=2²c, C, 1 = ² ac si. + 1/ si = 0 ad 1 1 = a² k si. + 1 k/ si : Substitutig these ito (5.4), we have = = ( 1 ² k si si. + 1 k/ ²c si si. + 1/ ² k ²c si si. + 1/ ) + H. k/² k si. k/ si si. + 1 k/; < k; si k si. + 1 /; k: Oce we have foud,theifsi. + 1/ = 0, we may reverse the argumets leadig to Theorem 5.1 ad coclude that ( g.1/ g.2/ g./) is our desired iverse. O the other had, if si. + 1/ = 0, the 1 = 0 ad by Theorem 5.1, the iverse of A does ot exist.

Examples We give two applicatios of our explicit formulas. EXAMPLE 1. I the sychroisatio problems of artificial eural etworks [11], we ecouter the tridiagoal Toeplitz matrix with a = c = 1, b = 2with the corers Þ = þ = 1. Theorem 4.3 gives the eigevalues ad eigevectors for such matrices. As a umerical example, cosider the followig matrix: A 4 = : (7.1)

23 [23] Explicit eigevalues ad iverses of several Toeplitz matrices 95 By Theorem 4.3,wehave ½ k = 2 + 2cos.2k 1/³ ; k = 1; 2; 3; 4; 4 which gives ½ 1 = ½ 4 = 2 + 2ad½ 2 = ½ 3 = 2 2. Sice a = c, the eigevectors may be obtaied by either (4.17)or(4.18). By (4.17), we have u.1/ = ( ) i 2 ; i; 2 i 2 ; 1 : By (4.18), if we take c 1 = 1adc 2 = 0, the u.1/ =. 2=2; 0; 2=2; 1/ ;ifwe take c 1 = 0adc 2 = 1, the u.1/ =. 2=2; 1; 2=2; 0/. It ca be easily checked that they are the correct eigevectors correspodig to ½ 1. We remark that our theorem is also applicable whe b = 2. A ispectio of (4.16) to (4.18) reveals that oly ½ k depeds o b. Thus the eigevalues of the matrix B 4 = (7.2) are give by ½ 1 = ½ 4 = 2 + 2ad½ 2 = ½ 3 = 2 2, with the correspodig eigevectors uchaged. The iverses of (7.1) ad (7.2) may be obtaied by (6.4) ad (6.5) i Theorem 6.3 as A 1 4 = 1 2 respectively ad B 1 4 = EXAMPLE 2.
