Factorizations into Normal Matrices in Indefinite Inner Product Spaces

Rings and Algebras 2016-11-01 v1 Numerical Analysis

Abstract

We show that any nonsingular (real or complex) square matrix can be factorized into a product of at most three normal matrices, one of which is unitary, another selfadjoint with eigenvalues in the open right half-plane, and the third one is normal involutory with a neutral negative eigenspace (we call the latter matrices normal neutral involutory). Here the words normal, unitary, selfadjoint and neutral are understood with respect to an indefinite inner product.
