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 &...

I'm currently interested in how discontinuous can get the eigenprojections of a continuous function taking values in a particular subspace of symmetric matrices. I've been searching everywhere for an ...

Let $A$ be a $n\times n$ matrix. Let $\|A\|$ be the spectral norm of $A$, and $\rho(A)$ be the spectral radius. I am wondering whether the following statement is true. There exists universal ...

This question is related to another question, but it is definitely not the same. Is it always possible to diagonalize (at least locally around each point) a family of symmetric real matrices $A(t)$ ...

Hi, everyone! Is there any efficient way to simplify the following tensor product $X \otimes X + X^T \otimes X^T$, where $X$ is a square $n \times n$ matrix. My goal is to efficiently compute the ...

Let $A\in\mathcal M_n$ be an $n\times n$ real [symmetric] matrix which depends smoothly on a [finite] set of parameters, $A=A(\xi_1,\ldots,\xi_k)$. We can view it as a smooth function $A:\mathbb R^k\...
