If $leftVert ArightVert geq c$ then $left|lambdaright|>c$ for all eigenvalues of $A$












0












$begingroup$


Let $Aintext{Mat}_{ntimes n}$ be an invertible matrix such that$leftVert ArightVert geq c$
where $leftVert cdotrightVert $ is the matrix norm . Is it true
that for every $lambda$ eigenvalue of $A$ we have $left|lambdaright|geq c$?



I know that $leftVert ArightVert geqleft|lambdaright|$ but
why would $left|lambdaright|geq c$?



Also Im familiar with the norm inequality $left|Axright|leqleftVert ArightVert left|xright|$
but couldn't use it in favor. Any suggestions?

No. Consider any diagonal matrix of the form $A = begin{pmatrix} c & 0 \ 0 & varepsilon I_{n-1} end{pmatrix}$ where $I_{n-1}$ is the $n-1 times n-1$ identity. Then $||A|| = c$, so clearly $||A|| geq c$, but all its other eigenvalues are $varepsilon < c$.

    If you add $epsilon$ on the diagonal, it becomes invertible and constitutes a counter example for small enough $epsilon $
