For a graph $G$, we associate a family of real symmetric matrices, $\mathcal{S}(G)$, where for any $M \in \mathcal{S}(G)$, the location of the nonzero off-diagonal entries of $M$ are governed by the adjacency structure of $G$. The ordered…

Symplectic geometry plays an increasingly important role in mathematics, physics and applications, and naturally gives rise to interesting matrix families and properties. One of these is the notion of symplectic eigenvalues, whose existence…
