and has solved the eigenvalue problem of this matrix. The tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrices were analyzed by other authors, as well. The explicit expressions for eigenvalues and eigenvectors of tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix of order n were found in [2]. In [3] the explicit inverse of the tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix of order n was got with use of the theory of orthogonal polynomials. Making use of the results obtained in [1], we give the explicit expression for powers of a tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix of odd order which is some generalization of the expressions of powers of tridiagonal matrices, obtained in [4,5]. The paper is organized as follows: In Section 2 we present expressions of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of odd order matrix Bn given in (1.1). In Section 3 we introduce the eigenvector matrix T and prove Theorem 3.1 that provides an expression of the inverse matrix T −1 and Theorem 3.2 that gives a general expression for powers of Bn . In Section 4 the numerical example is presented. The paper finishes with a conclusion.

2. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix of odd order In [1, Theorem 2.3 and Theorem 3.2] Gover proved the following results. Theorem 2.1 [1]. The eigenvalues of the tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix of order n are a1 and the solutions of the quadratic equation

where

(2.2)

Theorem 2.2 [1]. The eigenvector of B2m+1 in (1.1) associated with the eigenvalue λk which is a solution of (2.1) is given by  1 1 x = q0 (αk ), − (a1 − λk )p0 (αk ), sq1 (αk ), − s(a1 − λk )p1 (αk ), b1 b1 T 1 (2.3) . . . , − sm−1 (a1 − λk )pm−1 (αk ), sm qm (αk ) b1 and the eigenvector associated with the eigenvalue a1 is given by

Here and in what follows the superscript T means the operation of transposition. Based on Theorem 2.1 we state following proposition. Theorem 2.3. Consider ai ∈ R, bi > 0, ci > 0 (i = 1, 2). Let Bn = tridiagn (c1 , a1 , b1 ; c2 , a2 , b2 ) π be tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix (1.1) of order n = 2m + 1 (m ∈ N ) and αk = 2 cos mk+ for every 1 1  k  n. Then all eigenvalues of Bn are real, have multiplicity 1 and are given by:  ⎧  √ ⎪ a1 − a2 2 ⎪ a1 +a2 − ⎪ + b1 c1 + b2 c2 + b1 c1 b2 c2 αk , if 1  k  m, ⎪ 2 2 ⎪ ⎨ λk = a1 , if k = m + 1, (2.9) ⎪  ⎪ 2 ⎪ √ ⎪ a1 +a2 ⎪ a − a 1 2 ⎩ + + b1 c1 + b2 c2 + b1 c1 b2 c2 αk , if m + 2  k  n. 2 2 Proof. Rewrite (2.1) in the form

λ2 − (a1 + a2 ) λ + a1 a2 − b1 c1 − b2 c2 − Solving this quadratic equation, we get  a1 + a2 a1 − a 2 2

αk = 0. √

αk .

(2.10)

αk = 2 cos mk+π1 follows, that for any k = 1, m, m + 2, n αk assumes different values and √ √ |αk | < 2. If bi > 0 and ci > 0 (i = 1, 2), we have b1 c1 + b2 c2 + b1 c1 b2 c2 αk = ( b1 c1 − √ √ 2 b2 c2 ) + (2 + αk ) b1 c1 b2 c2 > 0 (k = 1, m, m + 2, n). So, with any ai ∈ R (i = 1, 2) and for every k = 1, m, m + 2, n λk1,k2 in (2.10) are different and real. Using the equality From





2(n − k + 1)π 2kπ (n − k + 1)π 2kπ = 2 cos = 2 cos 2π − = 2 cos m+1 n+1 n+1 n+1 kπ = 2 cos = αk , m+1

αn−k+1 = 2 cos

which holds when n we get (2.9). 

= 2m + 1 (m ∈ N ), and taking into account that a1 is an eigenvalue of B2m+1 ,

Let Ui (y) be the ith degree Chebyshev polynomial of the second kind with i Ui (y)

sin((i + 1) arccos y) sin(arccos y)

∈N

Chebyshev polynomial of the second kind satisfies the three term recurrence formula Ui (y)

= 2yUi−1 (y) − Ui−2 (y)

(U−1 (y) = 0, U0 (y) = 1, U1 (y) = 2y)

(2.11)

On the base of Theorem 2.2 we prove following statement. Theorem 2.4. Let ai ∈ R, bi > 0, ci > 0 (i = 1, 2). Then the eigenvector Tk of B2m+1 in (1.1) associated with the eigenvalue λk in (2.9) is given by ⎡ ⎤      α α s0 U0 2k + β U−1 2k ⎢ ⎥   ⎢ ⎥ αk 0 λk −a1 ⎢ ⎥ U s 0 b 2 ⎢ ⎥ 1      ⎢ ⎥ αk αk 1 ⎢ ⎥ + β U s U 1 0 ⎢ ⎥ 2 2   ⎢ ⎥ λ −a α ⎢ ⎥ s1 kb 1 U1 2k ⎢ ⎥ 1 ⎥ , k = 1, m, m + 2, n, Tk = ⎢ ⎢ ⎥ . .. ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥      ⎢ ⎥ αk αk ⎢ sm−1 U + β Um−2 2 ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ m−1 2 ⎢ ⎥   ⎢ ⎥ αk m−1 λk −a1 U s ⎢ ⎥ m − 1 2 ⎣   b1  ⎦ αk αk m s Um 2 + β Um−1 2 ⎡ 0 ⎤

(2.13)

here β is defined by (2.8). Proof. From (2.6), (2.7) follows     y 1      .  1 y ..    pi (y) =   , qi (y)  .. ..   . . 1      1 y

(2.14)

where both determinants have order i (i = 1, 2, 3, . . .). Taking into account properties of determinants, we get qi (y)

= pi (y) + β pi−1 (y), i = 1, 2, 3, . . .

Using (2.6), (2.7), (2.11), (2.12), (2.14) and (2.15), we write   y pi (y) = Ui 2 ,     y y qi (y) = Ui 2 + β Ui−1 2 ; here i = 0, 1, 2, 3, . . . From (2.3), (2.4) and (2.16) we get (2.13). So, the theorem is proved.

3. The main result and its applications The powers of odd order matrix Bn (n similarity transformation [7]

= 2m + 1, m ∈ N ) given in (1.1) can be found applying the

= 1, n) is the eigenvector (see (2.13)) of Bn

is the Jordan’s form of the matrix Bn . Concerning the inverse matrix T −1 we prove following theorem. Theorem 3.1. Let ai is given by T −1 where n

∈ R, bi > 0, ci > 0 (i = 1, 2). Then the inverse matrix T −1 of the matrix T in (3.2)

(3.6)

here H

The matrix H can be presented as follows:  T H = H1 H2 · · · Hn ;   here Hk = Hk1 Hk2 · · · Hkn (k = 1, n) is row vector (the kth row of the matrix H ) and left eigenvector of the matrix B corresponding to eigenvalue λk (k = 1, n) [7]. Since the left eigenvector is defined with accuracy of constant factor, the row vector Hk can be expressed as Hk

= tk hk (k = 1, n),

(3.7)

where tk is a nonzero constant factor and hk is some left eigenvector of the matrix B corresponding to eigenvalue λk . Write down (3.6) in the expanded form: ⎡ ⎤ ⎡ ⎤ ⎤ ⎡ λ 0 ··· 0 1 H1 ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ H1 ⎥ ⎥ ⎢ ⎢ . ⎥ ⎥ ⎢ . ⎢ ⎥ ⎢H ⎥ ⎢ H2 ⎥ 2⎥ ⎢ 0 λ2 . . .. ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎢ . ⎥. ⎢ . ⎥B=⎢ (3.8) ⎢ ⎥ . ⎢ . ⎥ ⎢ . ⎥ . . ⎢ ⎥ . . . ⎢ . ⎥ ⎢ . ⎥ . . ⎢ ⎥ . 0 ⎦ ⎦ ⎣ ⎣ ⎦ ⎣ Hn Hn 0 · · · 0 λn From (3.8) follows: Hk (B − λk I )

3499

From (3.1) we similarly can obtain the relation (B − λk I )Tk = 0 (k = 1, n), where the right hand side is the zero column vector. The expanded form of the latter expression is following: ⎤⎡ ⎡ ⎤ ⎡ ⎤ a1 − λ k b1 0 ⎥ ⎢ T1k ⎥ ⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎥⎢ ⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎥ ⎢ T2k ⎥ ⎢ c1 a2 − λ k b2 ⎥ ⎢0⎥ ⎥⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ ⎥⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ ⎥⎢ ⎢ c a − λ b ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ 2 1 k 1 ⎥⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ ⎥ ⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ . ⎥ (k = 1, n). = (3.12) . . ⎥ ⎢ .. ⎥ ⎢ .. .. ⎢.⎥ ⎥⎢ . ⎥ ⎢ c ⎢.⎥ 1 ⎥⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ ⎥⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ .. ⎥⎢ ⎢ ⎥ ⎢ ⎥ . a2 − λ k ⎥⎣ ⎢ b2 ⎦ ⎣ ⎦ ⎦ ⎣ T 0 nk c2 a1 − λ k  Comparing (3.11)  and (3.12) we conclude, that expressions of the elements of left eigenvector hk = hk1 hk2 · · · hkn (k = 1, n) can be obtained from the expressions of the corresponding elements  T of eigenvector Tk = T1k T2k · · · Tnk (k = 1, n) by interchanging bi and ci (i = 1, 2) in these expressions. Taking this into account and using the relations (3.7) and (2.13), we get (3.4). The constant factor tk (k = 1, n) we shall find by demanding TH = I would be   that the equality fulfilled (I is the identity matrix). From this equality follows ni=1 Hki Tik = ni=1 tk hki Tik = 1 (k = 1, n) and tk = n 1h T (k = 1, n). The latter expression can be written as ⎧ ⎨

(3.30)

From (3.27) to (3.30) follows (3.26). Thus we complete the proof.  The eigenvalue decomposition for the tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix of odd order, presented in the paper, lets us calculate not only powers (as shown in the Theorem 3.2) but also any functions defined on spectrum of this matrix. Proposition 3.1. Consider aν ∈ R, bν > 0, cν > 0 (ν = 1, 2). Let Bn = tridiagn (c1 , a1 , b1 ; c2 , a2 , b2 ) be tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix (1.1) of order n = 2m + 1 (m ∈ N ) and λk (1  k  n) be spectrum of Bn given by (2.9). If f (x) is any function defined on spectrum of Bn , then f (Bn )

= T diag(f (λ1 ), . . . , f (λn )) T −1 ;

(3.31)

here T and T −1 are the eigenvector matrix and its inverse, defined by (3.2) and (3.3), respectively. Proof. See, e.g. [9].  4. Example We can find the arbitrary positive integer powers of the tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix Bn (n 2m + 1, m ∈ N ) (see (1.1)), taking into account derived expressions.

5. Conclusion We have shown that the integer powers of tridiagonal 2-Toeplitz matrix of odd order can be expressed in terms of Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. When the condition of non singularity of the matrix is satisfied (all eigenvalues are non zero), derived expression can be applied for computing negative integer powers (including inverse matrix).
