Abstract
Zhan, X., Extremal numbers of positive entries of imprimitive nonnegative matrix, Linear Algebra Appl. (in press) has determined the maximum and minimum numbers of positive entries of imprimitive irreducible nonnegative matrices with a given imprimitivity index. Let σ( A ) denote the number of positive entries of a matrix A. Let M(n, k) and m(n, k) denote the maximum and minimum numbers of positive entries of imprimitive irreducible nonnegative matrices of order n with a given imprimitivity index k, respectively. In this article, we prove that for any positive integer d with m(n,k)≤ d ≤ M(n,k), there exists an n × n irreducible nonnegative matrix A with imprimitivity index k such that σ (A)=d.
