New lower bounds on eigenvalue of the Hadamard product of an M-matrix and its inverse

Some new lower bounds for the minimum eigenvalue of the Hadamard product of an M-matrix and its inverse are given. These bounds improve the results of [H.B. Li, T.Z. Huang, S.Q. Shen, H. Li, Lower bounds for the minimum eigenvalue of Hadamard product of an M-matrix and its inverse, Linear Algebra Appl. 420 (2007) 235–247].
