We have two nxn matrices with non-negative elements, A and B.
We know the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of A and B.
Can we use this information to say anything about the eigenvalues or eigenvectors of C=A*B?
The largest eigenvalue of C and the associated eigenvector are of particular interest.
So can anything be said about C? Even a weak inequality may be useful. Are there particular sets of A and B, for which we can say something?
We can't assume however that the matrices commute.
