Dec 10, 2022 at 17:25 comment added Christian Remling @JochenGlueck: The point is well taken, but I think the argument should work anyway since one can also remove degeneracies by arbitrarily small (in operator norm) perturbations. But min-max gives this more conveniently and it also shows somewhat more quantitatively that $\|\lambda_k(S)-\lambda_k(T)\|\le \|S-T\|$.
Dec 10, 2022 at 10:31 comment added Jochen Glueck @Echo: Re your 2nd comment: I don't see how continuity with respect to the Hausdorff metric alone can give the continuity of the eigenvalue maps: one can't reconstruct the list of eigenvalues of $T$ from the set $\sigma(T)$ since $\sigma(T)$ does not contain information about eigenvalue multiplicity.
Dec 10, 2022 at 10:20 comment added Jochen Glueck @Echo: I'm having difficulties to follow your first comment. The ranks of the spectral projections can jump, so they can't be continuos. To get continuity one would need to decompose the spectral projections associated to non-simple eigenvalues into rank-1 projections in a continuous way. I don't see why this is possible.
Dec 10, 2022 at 6:16 comment added user473423 The map $T\mapsto \sigma(T)$ is continuous in the Hausdorff-metric, hence the eigenvalue maps are continuous.
Dec 9, 2022 at 21:18 comment added user473423 I guess if you write each operator as a weighted sum of spectral projections, you will see that those summands depend continuously on the operator.
