Recovering a perturbation of a matrix polynomial from a perturbation of its linearization
share
A number of theoretical and computational problems for matrix polynomials are solved by passing to linearizations. Therefore a perturbation theory results for linearizations need to be related back to matrix polynomials. In this paper we present an algorithm that finds which perturbation of matrix coefficients of a matrix polynomial corresponds to a given perturbation of the entire linearization pencil. Moreover we find transformation matrices that, via strict equivalence, transform a perturbation of the linearization to the linearization of a perturbed polynomial. For simplicity, we present the results for the first companion linearization but they can be generalized to a broader class of linearizations.
