Hi All,
Suppose I've a symmetric matrix $A_{N \times N} = (A_{ij})$ which has a eigen value decomposition $A = UDU'$. I would like to know under what conditions $\frac{\partial U}{\partial A_{ij}}$ exists for all $i,j = 1,2, \ldots, N$. I found the following paper which talks about estimating the Jacobian of the SVD transformation

But its not very clear regarding the conditions that the matrix $A$ would need to satisfy. Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks Ashin
