Abstract:

Given a diagonalizable positive matrix $A$, there exists a positive matrix with the same spectrum as $A$, and with arbitrarily prescribed elementary divisors, provided that elementary divisors corresponding to nonreal eigenvalues occur in conjugate pairs. It is also shown that a similar result holds for doubly stochastic matrices.
