We consider $A \in \mathcal{M}_{n}(\mathbb{R})$. For every real eigenvalue $\lambda$ of $A$, show that $\min \operatorname{sp}_{\mathbb{R}}(A_{s}) \leqslant \lambda \leqslant \max \operatorname{sp}_{\mathbb{R}}(A_{s})$.
Deduce that if $A_{s} \in \mathcal{S}_{n}^{++}(\mathbb{R})$ then $A$ is invertible.
