Connection of eigenspace of finite Hilbert matrix and its continuous operator counterpart

I am trying to understand the connection between the eigenspace of the continuous operator $$ H(x,y) = \frac{1}{x+y} $$ which is nothing but the square of the Laplace operator, and its discrete ...

The geometrical multiplicity of the nilpotent matrices

The following point is well-known in the literature. Theorem. Let $A$ be a non-negative matrix in $M_n(\mathbb{R})$. If $A$ is nil-potent, there is a permutation matrix $P$ such that $P^tAP$ is ...

What are the eigenvalues/eigenvectors of the matrix $A=\Big(\frac{1}{\cos(k-l)\frac{\pi}{n}}\Big)_{k,l=1}^{\frac{n-1}{2}}$ when $n$ is odd?

Suppose that $n$ is odd. The eigen values/eigenvectors of the skew-circulant matrix $A=\Big(\frac{1}{\cos(k-l)\frac{\pi}{n}}\Big)_{k,l=1}^n$ are successfully computed in this post. Q. What are ...

Find the eigenvectors from the QR algorithm in the unsymmetric case

It is possible to find many references describing the QR Algorithm with more or less refinements to approximate the eigenvalues of a square matrix $A\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$. I implemented a version ...

Condition number for matrix of eigenvectors of a diagonalizable matrix

Let $A$ be a diagonalizable matrix, i.e., $A=SDS^{−1}$. For any matrix $A$, condition number is defined as $\kappa(A)=\|A\| \|A\|^{-1}$. For $A$ being a diagonalizable matrix, define $G_A=\{{S: S^{-1} ...

Lanczos algorithm for finding $k$ smallest eigenvector

I am trying (and have been recommended) to use the Lanczos algorithm to find the $k$ smallest eigenvectors. However, all of the literature seems to talk about this algorithm as a way to estimate the $...

What is the time complexity of the largest singular value and its vectors?

Full zero-error SVD on an $m \times n$ matrix $A$ would cost $O(\min(m^2n,mn^2))$. What is the time complexity if we need only the largest singular value and its corresponding vectors? I think it is $...

How to retrieve eigenvectors from shifted QR algorithm?

I understand that the key to retrieve eigenvectors in the non-shifted QR algorithm is to accumulate the transformations at each steps in the following way: $Q = \Pi_i Q_i$ Can we accumulate the ...

Eigenvectors of a symmetric positive definite Toeplitz matrix

I wish to efficiently compute the eigenvectors of an n x n symmetric positive definite Toeplitz matrix K. A full eigendecomposition would be even better. Although I assumed this would be a well ...

Compute only selected components of an eigenvector

I am wondering whether it is possible to compute portions of the eigenvectors of a given (possibly very big) matrix. More formally, consider the eigenvalue problem $\mathbf{Ax} = \lambda \mathbf{x}$, ...

Preconditioner for finding the smallest eigenpairs of a large, but structured, matrix

I'm trying to find the eigenvector corresponding to the second smallest eigenvalue of a large $(4,000,000 \times 4,000,000)$ matrix $L$. $L$ is a graph Laplacian, with the following structure: $L = D -...
