In this paper, we give sufficient conditions for the construction of certain symmetric and nonsymmetric pentadiagonal matrices from particular spectral information. The construction of the symmetric pentadiagonal matrix considers the extreme eigenvalues of its leading principal submatrices and a prescribed entry, and the construction of the nonsymmetric pentadiagonal matrix also considers an eigenvector and two prescribed entries.

In this paper, sufficient conditions for the existence and construction of nonnegative matrices with prescribed elementary divisors for a list of complex numbers with nonnegative real part are obtained, and the corresponding nonnegative matrices are constructed. In addition, results of how to perturb complex eigenvalues of a nonnegative matrix while keeping its elementary divisors and its nonnegativity are derived. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
