Abstract
In this paper we determine the minimal spectral radii among all skew-reciprocal
integer matrices of a fixed even dimension that are primitive or nonnegative and irreducible. In particular, except for dimension six, we show that each such class of matrices realises smaller spectral radii than the corresponding reciprocal class.
