A map of sufficient conditions for the real nonnegative inverse eigenvalue problem

Abstract The real nonnegative inverse eigenvalue problem (RNIEP) is the problem of determining necessary and sufficient conditions for a list of real numbers Λ to be the spectrum of an entrywise nonnegative matrix. A number of sufficient conditions for the existence of such a matrix are known. In this paper, in order to construct a map of sufficient conditions, we compare these conditions and establish inclusion relations or independency relations between them.
