Directed graphs, 2D state models, and characteristic polynomials of irreducible matrix pairs. (English) Zbl 0887.93033

A notion of a 2D digraph and a 2D strongly connected digraph are introduced. Equivalent descriptions of the irreducibility of matrices are obtained. Dynamical characterizations of irreducible matrix pairs and their characteristic polynomials are presented. Primitivity is introduced as a special case of irreducibility of matrix pairs.
