  • Eigenvalue Perturbation Theory of Structured Real Matrices and Their Sign Characteristics Under Generic Structured Rank-One Perturbations∗
    Eigenvalue perturbation theory of structured real matrices and their sign characteristics under generic structured rank-one perturbations∗ Christian Mehlx Volker Mehrmannx Andr´eC. M. Ran{ Leiba Rodmank July 9, 2014 Abstract An eigenvalue perturbation theory under rank-one perturbations is developed for classes of real matrices that are symmetric with respect to a non-degenerate bilinear form, or Hamiltonian with respect to a non-degenerate skew-symmetric form. In contrast to the case of complex matrices, the sign characteristic is a cru- cial feature of matrices in these classes. The behavior of the sign characteristic under generic rank-one perturbations is analyzed in each of these two classes of matrices. Partial results are presented, but some questions remain open. Appli- cations include boundedness and robust boundedness for solutions of structured systems of linear differential equations with respect to general perturbations as well as with respect to structured rank perturbations of the coefficients. Key Words: real J-Hamiltonian matrices, real H-symmetric matrices, indefinite inner product, perturbation analysis, generic perturbation, rank-one perturbation, T - even matrix polynomial, symmetric matrix polynomial, bounded solution of differential equations, robustly bounded solution of differential equations, invariant Lagrangian subspaces.

  • Hamiltonian Matrix Representations for the Determination of Approximate Wave Functions for Molecular Resonances
    Journal of Applied and Fundamental Sciences HAMILTONIAN MATRIX REPRESENTATIONS FOR THE DETERMINATION OF APPROXIMATE WAVE FUNCTIONS FOR MOLECULAR RESONANCES Robert J. Buenker Fachbereich C-Mathematik und Naturwissenschaften, Bergische Universität Wuppertal, Gaussstr. 20, D-42097 Wuppertal, Germany *For correspondence. ([email protected]) Abstract: Wave functions obtained using a standard complex Hamiltonian matrix diagonalization procedure are square integrable and therefore constitute only approximations to the corresponding resonance solutions of the Schrödinger equation. The nature of this approximation is investigated by means of explicit calculations using the above method which employ accurate diabatic potentials of the B 1Σ+ - D’ 1Σ+ vibronic resonance states of the CO molecule. It is shown that expanding the basis of complex harmonic oscillator functions gradually improves the description of the exact resonance wave functions out to ever larger internuclear distances before they take on their unwanted bound-state characteristics. The justification of the above matrix method has been based on a theorem that states that the eigenvalues of a complex-scaled Hamiltonian H (ReiΘ) are associated with the energy position and linewidth of resonance states (R is an internuclear coordinate and Θ is a real number). It is well known, however, that the results of the approximate method can be obtained directly using the unscaled Hamiltonian H (R) in real coordinates provided a particular rule is followed for the evaluation of the corresponding matrix elements. It is shown that the latter rule can itself be justified by carrying out the complex diagonalization of the Hamiltonian in real space via a product of two transformation matrices, one of which is unitary and the other is complex orthogonal, in which case only the symmetric scalar product is actually used in the evaluation of all matrix elements.

  • Mathematical Physics-14-Eigenvalue Problems.Nb
    Eigenvalue problems Main idea and formulation in the linear algebra The word "eigenvalue" stems from the German word "Eigenwert" that can be translated into English as "Its own value" or "Inherent value". This is a value of a parameter in the equation or system of equations for which this equation has a nontriv- ial (nonzero) solution. Mathematically, the simplest formulation of the eigenvalue problem is in the linear algebra. For a given square matrix A one has to find such values of l, for which the equation (actually the system of linear equations) A.X λX (1) has a nontrivial solution for a vector (column) X. Moving the right part to the left, one obtains the equation A − λI .X 0, H L where I is the identity matrix having all diagonal elements one and nondiagonal elements zero. This matrix equation has nontrivial solutions only if its determinant is zero, Det A − λI 0. @ D This is equivalent to a Nth order algebraic equation for l, where N is the rank of the mathrix A. Thus there are N different eigenvalues ln (that can be complex), for which one can find the corresponding eigenvectors Xn. Eigenvectors are defined up to an arbitrary numerical factor, so that usually they are normalized by requiring T∗ Xn .Xn 1, where X T* is the row transposed and complex conjugate to the column X. It can be proven that eigenvectors that belong to different eigenvalues are orthogonal, so that, more generally than above, one has T∗ Xm .Xn δmn . Here dmn is the Kronecker symbol, 1, m n δ = mn µ 0, m ≠ n.

Ivanov2 9 Feb 2014, clean copy Abstract We discuss three examples in which one may extend integrable Euler–Poincar´e ODEs to integrable Euler–Poincar´ePDEs in the matrix G-Strand context. After de- scribing matrix G-Strand examples for SO(3) and SO(4) we turn our attention to SE(3) where the matrix G-Strand equations recover the exact rod theory in the con- vective representation. We then find a zero curvature representation (ZCR) of these equations and establish the conditions under which they are completely integrable. Thus, the G-Strand equations turn out to be a rich source of integrable systems. The treatment is meant to be expository and most concepts are explained in examples in the language of vectors in R3.

    THE GENERALIZED CARTAN DECOMPOSITION FOR CLASSICAL RANDOM MATRIX ENSEMBLES ALAN EDELMAN AND SUNGWOO JEONG Abstract. We present a completed classification of the classical random ma- trix ensembles: Hermite (Gaussian), Laguerre (Wishart), Jacobi (MANOVA) and Circular by introducing the concept of the generalized Cartan decompo- sition and the double coset space. Previous authors [8, 40] associate a symmetric space G=K with a random matrix density on the double coset structure KnG=K. However this is incom- plete. Complete coverage requires the double coset structure A = K1nG=K2, where G=K1 and G=K2 are two symmetric spaces. Furthermore, we show how the matrix factorization obtained by the generalized Cartan decomposition G = K1AK2 plays a crucial role in sampling algorithms and the derivation of the joint probability density of A. 1. Introduction In pioneering work by Zirnbauer [40] and Due~nez[8] connections are made be- tween random matrix ensembles and the symmetric spaces [19, 21] studied in dif- ferential geometry, representation theory, and harmonic analysis. Unfortunately, symmetric spaces alone do not account for a rich enough set of Jacobi ensemble densities (See Figure 1). This work fills this significant gap. Noting that more general tools are needed, we not only take a closer look at the KAK decomposition from the theory of symmetric spaces, but we propose the incorporation of the more recent generalized Cartan decomposition (or the K1AK2 decomposition) [15, 24, 14, 30] especially for complete coverage of the Jacobi ensembles. We show that double coset spaces are rich enough to cover these important matrix ensembles. Furthermore, the key object is not the joint density, per se, but the matrix factorization.
