Eigenvalue/eigenvector sensitivity in multidimensional scaling

From classical multidimensional scaling, a Cartesian coordinate matrix can be obtained as $\mathbf{X} = \mathbf{V} \mathbf{\Lambda}^{1/2}$, where $\mathbf{\Lambda}$ is a diagonal matrix of eigenvalues ...

On estimating $\exp(-iHt)$ when $H$ is perturbed

Let us assume that we have an unbounded Hamiltonian $H$ and we perturb it a bit to be $H'=H+ \varepsilon A$. I am sure that estimating $||\exp(-iHt) - \exp(-iH't)||$ belongs to the subject of ...

Perturbation with positive diagonal

Suppose I have some matrix $A$ and I perturb it by some small amount: $A \to A + \delta A$. I am interested in determining the sign of the quantity $a^\dagger \delta A a$. Here is what I know: $a$ is ...

Prove that this requirement can be met if and only if $B \in \mathcal{B}$.

(a) Let $R(t, \omega)$ denote the rotation matrix $$ R(t, \omega)=\left[\begin{array}{cc} \cos (\omega t) & -\sin (\omega t) \\ \sin (\omega t) & \cos (\omega t) \end{array}\right] . $$ Find ...

Bounds on $\|A(A^{\dagger}-B^{\dagger})\|$ in terms of $\|A^{\dagger}\|$ and $\|A-B\|$

Exponeitiation by `$\dagger$' indicates the Moore-Penrose pseudo-inverse and the norms are the usual matrix norm induced by the Euclidean norm. Let $rank(A)\leq rank(B)$. I'm wondering whether one can ...
