Weakly Diagonally Dominant with Positive Diagonals
$begingroup$
Suppose $A in mathbb{R}^{ntimes n}$ (not necessarily symmetric) is weakly diagonally dominant with positive diagonals. Is it true that all eigenvalues of $A$ are non-negative (in the case of complex eigenvalues, have non-negative real parts)? Note that this holds true for strictly diagonally dominant matrices: if the matrix is symmetric with non-negative diagonal entries, the matrix is positive semi-definite.

Correct! But, in the case of complex eigenvalues, we need the real part of the eigenvalues to be non-negative.

Are you familiar with the Gershgorin circle theorem?

I guess I got your point. In this case, all circles in the Gershgorin circle theorem will be on the right-half plane will possible intersection with the imaginary axis!
