How to show a matrix DAD has distinct eigenvalues, where D is a diagonal matrix and A is a highly structured matrix
If
D is a positive diagonal matrix with well-separated diagonal entries (in particular, $(1 + k) |D_{i - 1, i - 1} < D_{i, i} < (1 - k) D_{i + 1, i + 1}$, where $k$ is a constant and the ...

Eigenvalue Spectrum of a non-Hermitian Matrix by a Hermitian Matrix Perturbation
Let $H_{eff}$ be a $n$ dimensional matrix defined by the eigenvalue spectrum $\Lambda$:
$$\Lambda(H)_n=\Lambda(H_n+H_{eff}),$$
Where $H$ is a infinite dimensional matrix, $\Lambda(H)_n$ are its lowest ...

A case problem about rank-1-perturbation of diagonal matrices
I have the following prediction for rank-1 perturbations of diagonal matrices, but I don't know how to prove (or disprove it).
Given $v:= [v_1,...,v_K] \in (0,1]^K$, we define $a:= \sum_{k=1}^K v_k = \...
