In this article we study the structured distance to singularity for a nonsingular matrix $A\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$, with a prescribed linear structure $\mathcal{S}$ (for instance, a sparsity pattern, or a real Toeplitz structure), i.e.,…
We consider the distance from a (square or rectangular) matrix pencil to the nearest matrix pencil in 2-norm that has a set of specified eigenvalues. We derive a singular value optimization characterization for this problem and illustrate…
This paper is concerned with the distance of a symmetric tridiagonal Toeplitz matrix $T$ to the variety of similarly structured singular matrices, and with determining the closest matrix to $T$ in this variety. Explicit formulas are…
To understand the solution of a linear, time-invariant differential-algebraic equation, one must analyze a matrix pencil (A,E) with singular E. Even when this pencil is stable (all its finite eigenvalues fall in the left-half plane), the…
Let $A$ be either a complex or real matrix with all distinct eigenvalues. We propose a new method for the computation of both the unstructured and the real-structured (if the matrix is real) distance $w_{\mathbb K}(A)$ (where ${\mathbb…

The main purpose of this article is to show that the numerical range of a linear pencil $\lambda A + B$ is equal to $\mathbb{C}$ if and only if $0$ belongs to the convex hull of the joint numerical range of $A$ and $B$. We also prove that…

Finding the distance to singularity for a matrix is a ubiquitous problem in numerical linear algebra, and is elegantly solved by the Eckart-Young-Mirsky theorem. Its structured variant naturally emerges when one considers structured…
For a given class of structured matrices $\mathbb S$, we find necessary and sufficient conditions on vectors $x,w\in \C^{n+m}$ and $y,z \in \C^{n}$ for which there exists $\Delta=[\Delta_1~\Delta_2]$ with $\Delta_1 \in \mathbb S$ and…

Complete eigenstructure, e.g., eigenvalues with multiplicities and minimal indices, of a skew-symmetric matrix pencil may change drastically if the matrix coefficients of the pencil are subjected to (even small) perturbations. These changes…
We study the characterization of several distance problems for linear differential-algebraic systems with dissipative Hamiltonian structure. Since all models are only approximations of reality and data are always inaccurate, it is an…
