On The Eigenvalue Problem For Toeplitz Matrices Generated By Rational Functions, William F. Trench

William F. Trench

We give formulas for the characteristic polynomial and eigenvectors of of $n\times n$ Toeplitz matrices generated by a formal Laurent series of a rational function $R(z)$. The formulas are in terms of a certain fixed polynomial with coefficients that are simple functions of $\lambda$ and the coefficients of $R(z)$. The complexity of the formulas is independent of $n$.
