The product of a Hermitian matrix and a positive semidefinite matrix has only real eigenvalues. We present bounds for sums of eigenvalues of such a product.
Several inequalities for eigenvalues involving convex combinations and compressions are given. These inequalities are matrix version of the basic convexity inequality f((a+b)/2) < (f(a)+f(b))/2.
Let $\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ be the set of all $n \times n$ complex matrices. For any Hermitian positive semi-definite matrices $A$ and $B$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$, their new common upper bound less than $A+B-A:B$ is constructed, where…
The saturation theorem of [Knutson-Tao '99] concerns the nonvanishing of Littlewood-Richardson coefficients. In combination with work of [Klyachko '98], it implies [Horn '62]'s conjecture about eigenvalues of sums of Hermitian matrices.…

Identifying the spectrum of the sum of two given Hermitian matrices with fixed eigenvalues is the famous Horn's problem.In this note, we investigate a variant of Horn's problem, i.e., we identify the probability density function (abbr. pdf)…
Horn's problem is concerned with characterizing the eigenvalues $(a,b,c)$ of Hermitian matrices $(A,B,C)$ satisfying the constraint $A+B=C$ and forming the edges of a triangle in the space of Hermitian matrices. It has deep connections to…
We consider the two matrix model with an even quartic potential W(y)=y^4/4+alpha y^2/2 and an even polynomial potential V(x). The main result of the paper is the formulation of a vector equilibrium problem for the limiting mean density for…

We review our recent results on pseudo-hermitian random matrix theory which were hitherto presented in various conferences and talks. (Detailed accounts of our work will appear soon in separate publications.) Following an introduction of…
We discuss the eigenvalue problem for 2x2 and 3x3 octonionic Hermitian matrices. In both cases, we give the general solution for real eigenvalues, and we show there are also solutions with non-real eigenvalues.
Conjugation covariants of matrices are applied to study the real algebraic variety consisting of complex Hermitian matrices with a bounded number of distinct eigenvalues. A minimal generating system of the vanishing ideal of degenerate…
