Question on whether, "An entire function, nowhere zero, has an entire logarithm," holds for matrix-valued entire functions as well
It is known that an entire function that is nowhere zero must be the exponential of another entire function.
Does this hold for matrix-valued functions as well? That is, given a matrix-valued entire ...

Eigenvectors of the symmetric tridiagonal matrices whose entries above the diagonal are all the same
Let us consider the real symmetric tridiagonal matrix $T=(t_{kl})$ in $M_n(\mathbb{R})$ with
$$t_{1,2}=t_{2,3}=\cdots=t_{n-1,n}=1$$
How can we compute the eigenvectors of $T$?

The spectrum of the product $JA$ where $J=I_n\oplus (-I_n)$
Let $A$ be a real symmetric matrix in $M_{2n}(\mathbb{R})$with $A^2=I_{2n}$. Suppose that the Schur decomposition of $A$ is given by $A=\Lambda^t D \Lambda$. Let us consider the following matrix.
$$...

Selecting some linearly independent columns of a particular matrix
Let us consider the matrix $C=A_1+A_2$ where :
$A_1=(a_{k,l})_{k,l=0}^{n-1}$ is the $n$ by $n$ matrix given by $a_{k,l}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{n}}(\cos\frac{2kl\pi}{n})$
$A_2$ is the the $n$ by $n$ block ...

Local differentiability of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a real symmetric matrix
Let $A(x)\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ be a real symmetric matrix depending on the point $x\in\mathbb{R}^n$, where the eigenvalues are not necessarily simple. Can we say that for all $x$ there exists an ...

eigenvalues of the product of a unitary with a diagonal
In $M_n(\mathbb{C})$, suppose $U$ and $D$ are a unitary and an invertible diagonal matrix with eigenvalues $\{e^{i\theta_1},\cdots,e^{i\theta_n}\}$ and $\{e^{i\eta_1},\cdots,e^{i\eta_n}\}$ ...

Can we approximate any eigenvalue of an infinite matrix via eigenvalues of some sequence of submatrices which approximates the matrix?
Let $T:\ell^2\to\ell^2$ be a compact linear operator. Let $[T]=(a_{i,j})_{i,j=1}^{\infty}$ be the representing infinite matrix of $T$ with respect to the canonical base. Let $T_n$ be the finite rank ...

Decay rate of least eigenvalue of Gram matrices
Consider the Hilbert space $H=L^2_w(I)$ as the weighted $L^2$ space, where $I\subseteq\mathbb{R}$:
$$ L_w^2(I)=\{\phi:I\rightarrow\mathbb{R}:\,\|\phi\|^2=\int_I \phi(x)^2w(x)\,dx<\infty\}. $$
In ...

Alike looking matrices imply convergence of eigenvalues?
This is a question about convergence of eigenvalues which essentially came up in studying the spectrum of St.-Liouville operators.
We want to look at matrices that agree in most of their entries and ...
