Abstract

Let A and B be n x n complex matrices. Characterization is given for the set ∈{A, B) of eigenvalues of matrices of the form U * AU + V * BV for some unitary matrices U and V, Consequences of the results are discussed and computer algorithms and programs are designed to generate the set ∈(A, B). The results refine those of Wielandt on normal matrices. Extensions of the results to the sum of matrices from three or more unitary similarity orbits are also considered.
