Abstract
For an oscillatory matrix A (that is, a totally positive matrix one of whose powers is strictly totally positive), we give an exact formula for the ratio of two successive eigenvalues of A, similar to the classical formula for the spectral radius, r(A) = lim(j-->infinity) \\A(j)\\(1/j). Related formulae are derived for strictly sign-regular matrices.
