Matrix quantization and effect on singular values

Let $A$ and $B$ be an $N\times n$ matrix with $n\le N$, and let $\sigma_1(X),\dots \sigma_n(X)$ denote the singular values of $X\in \{A,B\}$. Do we have upper and lower bounds for $$ \| \sigma_i(A)-\...

Efficient method to determine minimum eigenvalue of $2 \times 2$ block diagonal matrix

Suppose $H$ is a $2 \times 2$ block-diagonal symmetric matrix in $\mathbb{R}^{2^N \times 2^N} $. That is $$ H = \begin{pmatrix} A_1 & 0 & \cdots & 0\\ 0 & A_2 & \cdots & 0 \\ ...

Can the Jordan decomposition of a matrix be computed in a backwards stable way?

Let $PJP^{-1}$ denote the Jordan decomposition of $M$. The matrix $J$ is a direct sum of Jordan blocks; it is unique up to permutation of the Jordan blocks. The matrix $P$ is not unique. There are two ...

How can I find minimum and maximum eigenvalue of non-positive define matrix [closed]

There is a power iteration method, but it only returns the greatest(in absolute value) eigenvalue of matrix. So when we have negative eigenvalues it'll give wrong results. Is there any method, which ...

Best orthogonal approximation of rank 1 matrix

Let $X=\lambda_0u_0v_0^T\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ be a rank 1 matrix where $\lambda_0\in\mathbb{R}$, $u_0,v_0$ are of unit Euclidean norm. What is the solution of the following problem? $$\hat{X}=\...

An inequality concerning the solution of a Lyapunov equation

Let $A$ be an Hurwitz stable matrix (i.e. the real part of the eigenvalues of $A$ lie in the left-half plane) and $Q$ be a positive semidefinite matrix ($Q\ge 0$, for short). Let $P>0$ be the ...

Is this inequality involving the Frobenius norm right?

Let $A$ be a generic (or varying) square, real $ n \times n$ matrix. Let $G$ be a fixed $n \times k$ matrix, $k < n.$ Denote by $||.||_F$ the Frobenius norm. Is it true that $||AG||_F \geq c(G) ||...

When are two binary matrices simultaneously equivalent to their transpose?

For any real square matrix $A$ there is an invertible matrix $P$ such that $A^t = P^{-1}AP$. I have two binary ($0,1$) matrices $A$ and $B$. When does there exist a $P$ such that $A^t = P^{-1}AP$ and $...

Determining Nullspace Basis such that only one column is deleted or added as row is added or deleted, and remaining columns of basis stay the same

I would like to compute, in MATLAB, the basis Z for the nullspace of an m by n matrix A, such that if one row of A is added (resulting in A_a), the basis for A_a is n-m-1 of the n-m columns of Z, i.e.,...

Norm of triangular truncation operator on rank deficient matrices

Let $T_{n\times n}$ be a triangular truncation matrix, i.e. $$T_{i,j}=\begin{cases}1 & i\ge j\\ 0 & i<j \end{cases}$$ It is known that for arbitrary $A_{n\times n}$ $$\|T\circ A\|\le\frac{\...
