Why is the set of Hermitian matrices with repeated eigenvalue of measure zero?
The Hermitian matrices form a real vector space where we have a Lebesgue measure. In the set of Hermitian matrices with Lebesgue measure, how does it follow that the set of Hermitian matrices with ...

Phase transition in matrix
Playing around with Matlab I noticed something very peculiar:
Take the symmetric matrix $A \in \mathbb R^{n \times n}$ defined by
$$A_{ij}= i \delta_{ij} - \frac{\varepsilon}{\sqrt{i}\sqrt{j}}\,.$$

$l_{\infty}$ norms of matrix perturbations
Say $B$ is a real symmetric matrix of dimension $n$ and $A$ is another real symmetric matrix of the same dimension.
What needs to be the bounds on (which?) norm of $B$ to ensure that $\lambda_{max}(...
