Abstract
A technique is proposed to transform a nonsymmetric quadratic assignme nt problem (QAP) into an equivalent one, consisting of (complex) Hermi tian matrices. This technique provides several new Hoffman-Wielandt ty pe eigenvalue inequalities for general matrices and extends the eigenv alue bound for symmetric QAPs to the general case.
