Differentiability of Eigenvalues - Perturbation Theory
first, I have a general question. In perturbation theory, I saw perturbations in eigenvalues and eigenvectors of square, non-symmetric matrices and the calculations were all right but no one ever ...

Eigenvectors of Kronecker Product [closed]
Conjecture If $A$ and $B$ are two complex square matrices, then every eigenvector of $A\otimes B$ is of the form $x\otimes y$, where $x$ is an eigenvector of $A$ and $y$ is an eigenvector of $B$.

Differentiability of eigenvalue and eigenvector on the non-simple case
Let $h:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^m, n>1$ be a twice continuously differentiable function and $J_h:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$ be its jacobian matrix. Let us consider the functions $A(x):=...

Can I assign the term "is eigenvector" and "is eigenmatrix" of matrix $P$ in my specific (infinite-size) case?
Remark: I asked this in MSE, the question got views and votes but seemingly no one had an answer so far.
Background: I'm rereading a couple of my exploratory (surely not research-level) math-essays ...

Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of tridiagonal matrices
What can I say about the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the tridiagonal matrix $T$ given as
$T = \begin{pmatrix}
a_1 & b_1 \\
c_1 & a_2 & b_2 \\
& c_2 & \ddots & \ddots \\
&...

The proof of the invertibility of $\Big( \sin\frac{8kl\pi}{2n+1} \Big)_{k,l=1}^\frac{n}{2}$
Suppose that $n$ is even. Any suggestion/appraoch to prove that $S=\Big( \sin\frac{8kl\pi}{2n+1} \Big)_{k,l=1}^\frac{n}{2}$ is invertible?

Connections between eigenvectors after matrix multiplication
Suppose we have an M$\times$N complex matrix $H$ and its singular value decomposition $H=U\Lambda V^*$ and an N$\times$N covariance matrix $R_s$ with its eigendecomposition $R_s = U_s\Lambda_sU_s^*$. ...

On the eigen vectors of a diagonalizable matrix
Let us consider the space $M_n(\mathbb{C})$. By a unitary matrix $U=(u_{ij})$ we mean that $U^{-1}=(\overline{u_{ji}})$.
Q. Let $U$ be a unitary matrix. I am looking for the pairs of matrices $(D,A)$ ...

Infinite positive matrices with probability eigenvector
Let $A$ be an infinite non-negative matrix with integer entries ($a_{ij} \geq 0, \forall i,j \in \mathbb N$).
Suppose that $A$ is irreducible, aperiodic, and recurrent. So that it satisfies the ...

Is there any relation between weights in the eigenvector (corresponding to least eigenvalue) and the columns of a correlation matrix?
This problem is motivated from one of my pattern mining research projects. Any helpful suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Consider an $n \times n$ correlation matrix A such that all the off-...

Any generic way to move a psd matrix to its neighbors?
Given a two positive matrices $A,B$. For simplicity, let's assume that $Tr A=Tr B=1$. Assume that $\|A-B\|_1\leq\varepsilon$, for some small $\varepsilon>0$, where $\|\cdot\|_1$ is the $l_1$-norm, ...

Eigenvector localizaiton
I have raised this sort of question before but I think that now I've found a better term for the subject, one which might ring more bells for people - hence the repost. Hope you won't be too angry ...

Are there zero entries in the eigenvector corresponding to a simple eigenvalue?
For a real symmetric matrix $M$ and a simple eigenvalue $\lambda$, under which conditions the corresponding eigenvector has no zero entries? Perhaps, this is unconditional and one can provide a proof?
