Tropical roots of tropical polynomials have been previously studied and used to localize roots of classical polynomials and eigenvalues of matrix polynomials. We extend the theory of tropical roots from tropical polynomials to tropical Laurent series. Our proposed definition ensures that, as in the polynomial case, there is a bijection between tropical roots and slopes of the Newton polygon associated with the tropical Laurent series. We show that, unlike in the polynomial case, there may be…

The results provide the basis for analyzing the effect of Gaubert and Sharify's tropical scalings for P(\lambda) on (a) the conditioning of linearizations of tropically scaled $P(\ Lambda)$ and (b) the backward stability of eigensolvers based on linearized versions of Tropically scaled P(\ lambda)\$.

This paper investigates scaling for generalized and polynomial eigenvalue problems (PEPs) of arbitrary degree and introduces a generalization of the diagonal scaling by Lemonnier and Van Dooren to PEPs that is especially effective if some information about the magnitude of the wanted eigenvalues is available.
