We present in this note a correction to Theorem 17 in our earlier paper "Global properties of eigenvalues of parametric rank one perturbations for structured and unstructured matrices" and sharpen the estimates for eigenvalues of parametric rank one perturbations given in that theorem.
We analyze when an arbitrary matrix pencil is equivalent to a dissipative Hamiltonian pencil and show that this heavily restricts the spectral properties. In order to relax the spectral properties, we introduce matrix pencils with coefficients that have positive semidefinite Hermitian parts. We will make a detailed analysis of their spectral properties and their numerical range. In particular, we relate the Kronecker structure of these pencils to that of an underlying skew-Hermitian pencil and discuss their regularity, index, numerical range, and location of eigenvalues. Further, we study matrix polynomials with positive semidefinite Hermitian coefficients and use linearizations with positive semidefinite Hermitian parts to derive sufficient conditions for a spectrum in the left half plane and derive bounds on the index.
General properties of eigenvalues of $A+τuv^*$ as functions of $τ\in\Comp$ or $τ\in\Real$ or $τ=\e^{\iiθ}$ on the unit circle are considered. In particular, the problem of existence of global analytic formulas for eigenvalues is addressed. Furthermore, the limits of eigenvalues with $τ\to\infty$ are discussed in detail. The following classes of matrices are considered: complex (without additional structure), real (without additional structure), complex $H$-selfadjoint and real $J$-Hamiltonian.
We study the characterization of several distance problems for linear differential-algebraic systems with dissipative Hamiltonian structure. Since all models are only approximations of reality and data are always inaccurate, it is an important question whether a given model is close to a 'bad' model that could be considered as ill-posed or singular. This is usually done by computing a distance to the nearest model with such properties. We will discuss the distance to singularity and the distance to the nearest high index problem for dissipative Hamiltonian systems. While for general unstructured differential-algebraic systems the characterization of these distances are partially open problems, we will show that for dissipative Hamiltonian systems and related matrix polynomials there exist explicit characterizations that can be implemented numerically.
A representation of the Padé approximation of the $Z$-transform of a signal as a resolvent of a tridiagonal matrix $J$ is given. Several formulas for the poles, zeros and residues of the Padé approximation in terms of the matrix $J$ are proposed. Their numerical stability is tested and compared. Methods for computing forward and backward errors are presented.
A wide class of matrix pencils connected with dissipative Hamiltonian descriptor systems is investigated. In particular, the following properties are shown: all eigenvalues are in the closed left half plane, the nonzero finite eigenvalues on the imaginary axis are semisimple, the index is at most two, and there are restrictions for the possible left and right minimal indices. For the case that the eigenvalue zero is not semisimple, a structure-preserving method is presented that perturbs the given system into a Lyapunov stable system.
Rank two parametric perturbations of operators and matrices are studied in various settings. In the finite dimensional case the formula for a characteristic polynomial is derived and the large parameter asymptotics of the spectrum is computed. The large parameter asymptotics of a rank one perturbation of singular values and condition number are discussed as well. In the operator case the formula for a rank two transformation of the spectral measure is derived and it appears to be the t-transformation of a probability measure, studied previously in the free probability context. New transformation of measures is studied and several examples are presented.
We consider the class of non-Hermitian operators represented by infinite tridiagonal matrices, selfadjoint in an indefinite inner product space with one negative square. We approximate them with their finite truncations. Both infinite and truncated matrices have eigenvalues of nonpositive type: either a single one on the real axis or a couple of complex conjugate ones. As a tool to evaluate the reliability of the use of truncations in numerical simulations, we give bounds for the rate of convergence of their eigenvalues of nonpositive type. Numerical examples illustrate our results.
An expansion of the Weyl function of a $H$-selfadjoint random matrix with one negative square is provided. It is shown that the coefficients converge to a certain generalization of Catlan numbers. Properties of this generalization are studied, in particular, a combinatorial interpretation is given.
A generalized Nevanlinna function $Q(z)$ with one negative square has precisely one generalized zero of nonpositive type in the closed extended upper halfplane. The fractional linear transformation defined by $Q_τ(z)=(Q(z)-τ)/(1+τQ(z))$, $τ\in \mathbf{Real} \cup \{\infty\}$, is a generalized Nevanlinna function with one negative square. Its generalized zero of nonpositive type $α(τ)$ as a function of $τ$ is being studied. In particular, it is shown that it is continuous and its behavior in the points where the function extends through the real line is investigated.
Large H-selfadjoint random matrices are considered. The matrix $H$ is assumed to have one negative eigenvalue, hence the matrix in question has precisely one eigenvalue of nonpositive type. It is showed that this eigenvalue converges in probability to a deterministic limit. The weak limit of distribution of the real eigenvalues is investigated as well.
A theorem that is of aid in computing the domain of the adjoint operator is provided. It may serve e.g. as a criterion for selfadjointness of a symmetric operator, for normality of a formally normal operator or for $H$--selfadjointness of an $H$--symmetric operator. Differential operators and operators given by an infinite matrix are considered as examples.
The geometry of spaces with indefinite inner product, known also as Krein spaces, is a basic tool for developing Operator Theory therein. In the present paper we establish a link between this geometry and the algebraic theory of *-semigroups. It goes via the positive definite functions and related to them reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Our concern is in describing properties of elements of the semigroup which determine shift operators which serve as Pontryagin fundamental symmetries
