Abstract

Associated with every 2n×2n2n\times 2n real positive definite matrix A,A, there exist nn positive numbers called the symplectic eigenvalues of A,A, and a basis of R2n\mathbb{R}^{2n} called the symplectic eigenbasis of AA corresponding to these numbers. In this paper, we discuss the differentiability (analyticity) of the symplectic eigenvalues and corresponding symplectic eigenbasis for differentiable (analytic) map tA(t),t\mapsto A(t), and compute their derivatives. We then derive an analogue of Lidskii's theorem for symplectic eigenvalues as an application.
