This is sort of complementary to this thread. I’ll repeat the definitions here: For a matrix $M\in GL(n,\mathbb R)$, consider the $n!$ matrices obtained by permutations of the rows …

For a matrix $M\in GL(n,\mathbb R)$, consider the $n!$ matrices obtained by permutations of the rows (say) of $M$ and define the total spectrum $TS(M)$ as the union of all their sp …

Suppose I have the symmetric tridiagonal matrix: $ \begin{pmatrix} a & b_{1} & 0 & ... & 0 \\ b_{1} & a & b_{2} & & ... \\ 0 & b_{2} & a …

Let $A$ and $B$ square real matrices. I know that the matrix $A+B$ has 1 as eigenvalue of multiplicity 1 and the others eigenvalues have their modulus <1. Can we say something a …

For an discrete (separable) infinite-dimensional Hilbert Space with a compact operator, 0 is always an accumulation point (https://www.math.ucdavis.edu/~hunter/book/ch9.pdf). Does …

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded planar domain which has a axis of symmetry and $T:\Bbb{R}^2\longrightarrow\Bbb{R}^2$ symmetric transformation with respect to this axis. Let $u_{1}(x)$ be …

In the Dirichlet problem if nodal lines do not touch $\partial\Omega$ (unit disk), what happens to the eigenvalues? Thanks for help.

Background: Let $\mathcal{K}$ be set (convex cone, if you like) of symmetric matrices of order $n$. Each matrix $A \in \mathcal{K}$ can be decomposed in a unique way as $A=A_{+} …

I want to analyse noise model for a matrix M whose entries are not real numbers. The matrix is a collection of N permutation matrices of size nxn i.e, M is NnxNn. Because its a col …

Consider the following block matrix $A=\pmatrix{A_1 & A_2\cr kA_2^\top & A_3}$ where $A_1$ is a symmetric matrix, $A_3$ is diagonal matrix and all entries of $A$ are real …

Let $A$ and $B$ be symmetric non-negative matrices. If $A\geq B$ (i.e., $A-B$ is a nonnegative matrix), can we say that $\lambda_i(A) \geq \lambda_i(B)$ for all $i$, where $\lambda …

Let $K$ be a field. For a matrix $A\in GL_n(K)$ we can find the Jordan normal form $A'$ in $GL_n(\overline{K})$, where $\overline{K}$ is the algebraic closure of $K$. We write $j_\ …

Hi. I am busy working through a paper i came accross online on portfolio optimization. The paper may be accessed on the following link: http://ssrn.com/abstract=1483412 I am str …

Is there any analytic expression for summation of eigen-values of a tri-diagonal matrix which are smaller than a constant value? Or even a rough approximation for it. How about cas …

Suppose we have a function from $\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{C}$, $$f(x,y) = e^{\imath\pi x g(y)}$$ where $g(y)$ is periodic in $y\in[-T, T),\ T<\infty$ (e.g., a sinusoid) and $0\le …
