Abstract (EN):
In this paper we consider sparse symmetrically banded matrices in which the nonzero off-diagonals are positioned a multiple of k steps from the main diagonal. We show that such a matrix T is permutationally similar to direct sum of banded matrices. In particular, when T has exactly one nonzero off-diagonal above and below the main diagonal, the direct summands are tridiagonal. If T has a w-Toeplitz structure, the blocks are w'-Toeplitz, with w' = 1cm(w, k)/k. This reduction allows the study of spectral properties of T from those of the direct summands. Finally, we give a reduction of sparse symmetrically banded matrices relatively to the main antidiagonal.
