Computing the eigenvalues of $A+E$ where $A$ is an upper triangular matrix whose diagonal entries are all zero and $E$ is a rank one matrix

Let us consider the backward-shift matrix $B=(b_{ij})\in M_n(\mathbb{R})$ whose entries are given by $b_{k,k+1}=1$ and the other entries are all 0. We also consider $X=(x_{ij})\in M_n(\mathbb{R})$ ...

Perturbation of Neumann Laplacian

Consider the $N \times N$ matrix $$A_{\alpha}=\begin{pmatrix} \lambda_1 & -1 & -\alpha & 0 & \cdots & 0\\ -1 & \lambda_2 & -1 & -\alpha & \cdots & 0\\ -\alpha &...

Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of non-symmetric elliptic operators

We know that the operator $A=\Delta$ with domain $D(A)=\{u\in W^{2, 2}(\Omega): u=0 \ \ \text{on } \partial\Omega\}$ (say $\Omega$ is a bounded nice domain) has eigenvalues $\lambda_1>\lambda_2\ge \...

Continuity of eigenvectors

Let $\mathbb{C} \ni z \mapsto M(z)$ be a square matrix depending holomorphically on a parameter $z$ with the property that $\operatorname{dim}\ker(M(z)))=1$ for $z $ away from a discrete set $D \...
