We consider PDE eigenvalue problems as they occur in two-dimensional photonic crystal modeling. If the permittivity of the material is frequency-dependent, then the eigenvalue problem becomes nonlinear. In the lossless case, linearization…
Shrinkage estimators of covariance are an important tool in modern applied and theoretical statistics. They play a key role in regularized estimation problems, such as ridge regression (aka Tykhonov regularization), regularized discriminant…
Perturbation analysis of Markov chains provides bounds on the effect that a change in a Markov transition matrix has on the corresponding stationary distribution. This paper compares and analyzes bounds found in the literature for finite…
Pseudospectra and structured pseudospectra are important tools for the analysis of matrices. Their computation, however, can be very demanding for all but small matrices. A new approach to compute approximations of pseudospectra and…
In this paper the problem of recovering a regularized solution of the Fredholm integral equations of the first kind with Hermitian and square-integrable kernels, and with data corrupted by additive noise, is considered. Instead of using a…
We consider eigenvalue condition numbers and backward errors for a class of symmetric nonlinear eigenvalue problems with eigenvector nonlinearities. For both of these quantities, we derive explicit and computable expressions that can be…
The analysis of diagonalizable matrices in terms of their so-called isospectral reduction represents a versatile approach to the underlying eigenvalue problem. Starting from a symmetry of the isospectral reduction, we show in the present…
In this article we classify normal forms and unfoldings of linear maps in eigenspaces of (anti)-automorphisms of order two. Our main motivation is provided by applications to linear systems of ordinary differential equations, general and…
A square complex matrix $A$ is called (skew) $J$-Hamiltonian if $AJ$ is (skew) hermitian where $J$ is a real normal matrix such that $J^2=-I$, where $I$ is the identity matrix. In this paper, we solve the Procrustes problem to find normal…
Computational procedures for the stationary probability distribution, the group inverse of the Markovian kernel and the mean first passage times of an irreducible Markov chain, are developed using perturbations. The derivation of these…
We study existence and universality of scaling limits for the eigenvalues of a random normal matrix, in particular at points on the boundary of the spectrum. Our approach uses Ward's equation, which is an identity satisfied by the 1-point…
The relation between random normal matrices and conformal mappings discovered by Wiegmann and Zabrodin is made rigorous by restricting normal matrices to have spectrum in a bounded set. It is shown that for a suitable class of potentials…
After reconsidering the theorem of continuity of the roots of a polynomial in terms of its coefficients in the deformation framework, we study the stability of the greater common divisor of two polynomials compared to perturbations on their…
We compute the joint eigenvalue distribution for the rank one Hermitian and non-Hermitian perturbations of chiral Gaussian $\beta$-ensembles ($\beta>0$) of random matrices.
We revisit the problem of perturbing a large, i.i.d. random matrix by a finite rank error. It is known that when elements of the i.i.d. matrix have finite fourth moment, then the outlier eigenvalues of the perturbed matrix are close to the…
We consider the presence and evolution of primordial density perturbations in a cosmological model based on a simple ansatz which captures -- by providing a set of effective gravitational field equations -- the strength of the enhanced…
There has recently been renewed recognition of the need to understand the consistency properties that must be preserved when a generalized matrix inverse is required. The most widely known generalized inverse, the Moore-Penrose…
In a recent work Killip and Nenciu gave random recurrences for the characteristic polynomials of certain unitary and real orthogonal upper Hessenberg matrices. The corresponding eigenvalue p.d.f.'s are beta-generalizations of the classical…
We consider the random normal matrices with quadratic external potentials where the associated orthogonal polynomials are Hermite polynomials and the limiting support (called droplet) of the eigenvalues is an ellipse. We calculate the…
We study an ensemble of random matrices (the Rosenzweig-Porter model) which, in contrast to the standard Gaussian ensemble, is not invariant under changes of basis. We show that a rather complete understanding of its level correlations can…
