  • We study the direct and inverse spectral theory for a class of finite Hermitian banded matrices. Using the theory of matrix orthogonal polynomials, we provide an explicit procedure for reconstructing a banded matrix from a matrix-valued measure that encodes its spectral data. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a measure to be the spectral measure of a matrix in the examined class. We further analyze the connections between this spectral analysis, block tridiagonalization algorithms, and the Toda lattice evolution on banded matrices.
