Parodi's Theorem

The Eigenvalues $\lambda$ satisfying $P(\lambda)=0$, where $P(\lambda)$ is the Characteristic Polynomial, lie in the unions of the Disks

\begin{displaymath}
\vert z\vert\leq 1
\end{displaymath}


\begin{displaymath}
\vert z+b_1\vert\leq\sum_{j=1}^n \vert b_j\vert.
\end{displaymath}
