We show that an n-by-n companion matrix A can have at most n line segments on the boundary NW (A) of its numerical range W(A), and it has exactly n line segments on NW (A) if and only if, for n odd, A is unitary, and, for n even, A is unitarily equivalent to the direct sum A 1 โ A 2 of two (n/2)-by-

A Banach algebraic approach is proposed to study the asymptotic bchaviour of the numerical ranges of certain (finite) approximation matrices of {infinite) operators. The approach works for large classes of approximation methods; it is examined in detail here for the finite sections of Toeplitz opera
A normal form is derived for finite sets of doubly commuting matrices, under simultaneous unitary similarity. The matrices need not be normal, but they commute with each other and with the adjoints of each other. The normal form is further used to study joint numerical ranges of doubly commuting mat
