Reference for (general case) of uniqueness of singular value decomposition (SVD)

My statistics research requires me to understand the non-uniqueness of SVD in the degenerate case of repeated singular values. I believe that the statements and proofs on this StackExchange posts are ...

Combining SVD subspaces for low dimensional representations

Suppose we have matrix $A$ of size $N_t \times N_m$, containing $N_m$ measurements corrupted by some (e.g. Gaussian) noise. An SVD of this data $A = U_AS_A{V_A}^T$ can reveal the singular vectors $U_A$...

Limitation through the singular values

Given matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$ and sequence $\left\{X^k\right\}_k$ converges to $X$ according to the Frobenius norm. I wonder that $\sigma_i(X^k)$ converge $\sigma_i(X)$ or not (where $\...

How do the singular values of a Hankel matrix, generated by some data time series, change when we add/remove rows and columns?

Suppose I have a smooth time series $C(t)$ defined on the interval $t=[0,T]$, from which I extract the sub-series $c=\{x_1,\cdots,x_N\}$ of $N$ entries, where $x_i=C(i*T/N)$. Naturally, the number $N$ ...

Proving a majorization inequality for the singular value of the product of two matrices without using tensor product

For any two matrices $\mathbf{A},\mathbf{B} \in \mathbb{C}^{n \times n}$, we know that the following majorization inequality holds $$ \tag{1} \label{grz} \sigma^{\downarrow}(\mathbf{A}\mathbf{B}) \...

Bound for matrix inner product based on singular values

Regarding the matrix inner product based on singular values, Lewis (1995) "The convex analysis of unitarily invariant matrix functions" states the result by von Neumann that $\langle X,Y \rangle \leq \...
