Faulty algorithm for simultaneous diagonalization?
I found a simple algorithm for simultaneous diagonalization of two commuting matrices (Nordgren - Simultaneous Diagonalization and SVD of Commuting Matrices), which seemed to be well-founded. For ...

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?

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 $B$.

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 $R_s = U_s\Lambda_sU_s^*$. ...

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 ...

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 \\
&...

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):=...

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, ...
