If $A$ is a $2n \times 2n$ real positive definite matrix, then there exists a symplectic matrix $M$ such that $M^TAM = \left [ \begin{array}{cc} D & O \\ O & D \end{array} \right ]$ where $D= \diag (d_1 (A), \ldots, d_n(A))$ is a diagonal…

Williamson's theorem states that if $A$ is a $2n \times 2n$ real symmetric positive definite matrix then there exists a $2n \times 2n$ real symplectic matrix $M$ such that $M^T A M=D \oplus D$, where $D$ is an $n \times n$ diagonal matrix…

Symplectic eigenvalues are known to satisfy analogs of several classic eigenvalue inequalities. Of these is a set of weak supermajorization relations concerning symplectic eigenvalues that are weaker analogs of some majorization relations…

In this paper, we provide an algebraic condition on any $2n \times 2n$ real symmetric positive definite matrix which is necessary and sufficient for the matrix to be diagonalized by an orthosymplectic matrix in the sense of Williamson's…

In this short paper, we give a complete and affirmative answer to a conjecture on matrix trace inequalities for the sum of positive semidefinite matrices. We also apply the obtained inequality to derive a kind of generalized Golden-Thompson…

We give a minimal list of inequalities characterizing the possible eigenvalues of a set of Hermitian matrices with positive semidefinite sum of bounded rank. This answers a question of A. Barvinok.

It is shown that a $N\times N$ real symmetric [complex hermitian] positive definite matrix $V$ is congruent to a diagonal matrix modulo a pseudo-orthogonal [pseudo-unitary] matrix in $SO(m,n)$ [ $SU(m,n)$], for any choice of partition…

A hermitian matrix can be parametrized by a set consisting of its determinant and the eigenvalues of its submatrices. We established a group of equations which connect these variables with the mixing parameters of diagonalization. These…
