In this work, we improve the lower and upper bounds obtained by Zhang and Luo [X. Zhang, R. Luo, Upper bound for the non-maximal eigenvalues of irreducible nonnegative matrices, Czechoslovak Math. J. 52 (127) (2002) 537-544] for the nonmaximal eigenvalue ฮป n-1 (A) of a symmetric positive matrix.
Let S, (F) denote the space of all n x n symmetric matrices over the field F. Given a positive integer k such that k < n, let d(n, k, F) be the smallest integer f such that every f dimensional subspace of Sn(F) contains a nonzero matrix whose rank is at most k. It is our purpose to consider d(n,k,F)
