Companion matrices, especially the Frobenius companion matrices, are used in algorithms for finding roots of polynomials and are also used to find bounds on eigenvalues of matrices. In 2003, Fiedler introduced a larger class of companion matrices that includes the Frobenius companion matrices. One property of the combinatorial pattern of these companion matrices is that, up to diagonal similarity, they uniquely realize every possible spectrum of a real matrix. We characterize matrix patterns that have this property and consequently introduce more companion matrix patterns. We observe that each Fiedler companion matrix is permutationally similar to a unit Hessenberg matrix. We provide digraph characterizations of the classes of patterns described, and in particular, all sparse companion matrices, noting that there are companion matrices that are not sparse.
