Spectral theory of matrix-sequences: perspectives of the GLT analysis and beyond
In recent years there has been a growing attention on distribution results in the sense of Weyl for the collective behavior of eigenvalues and singular values of matrix-sequences. Starting from the work of Szegö regarding the case of Toeplitz matrix-sequences, there has been a wealth of associated results, which culminated in the works of Tilli and of Tyrtyshnikov, Zamarashkin, and of the author for preconditioned and non-preconditioned $r$-block $d$-level Toeplitz matrix-sequences with Lebesg…
