Abstract

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions on simultaneous symplectic spectral decomposition of a family of 2n×2n2n \times 2n real positive semidefinite matrices with symplectic kernels. We also provide a precise algebraic condition on a 2n×2n2n \times 2n real positive semidefinite matrix with symplectic kernel for orthosymplectic spectral diagonalization, which generalizes a known result for positive definite matrices.
