Derivative of eigenpair with respect to matrix

Suppose that $A$ is real and symmetric matrix (or tensor) of dimension $3 \times 3$, with its spectral decomposition $$A = \sum_{i=1}^3 \lambda_i\ n_i\otimes n_i$$ where $\lambda_i$, $n_i$ and $\...

Derivative of eigenvectors of a matrix with respect to its components

Suppose that $B$ is a real, positive-definitive symmetric ($3\times3$) matrix (more accurately, $B$ is a tensor) with distinct eigenvalues, and that we can write it as $$ B= \sum_{i=1}^3 \lambda_{i}(...
