Consider an n × n matrix polynomial P(λ). An upper bound for a spectral norm distance from P(λ) to the set of n × n matrix polynomials that have a given scalar μ∈ℂ as a multiple eigenvalue was recently obtained by Papathanasiou and Psarrakos (2008). This paper concerns a refinement of this result for the case of weakly normal matrix polynomials. A modification method is implemented and its efficiency is verified by an illustrative example.
