We address the problem of computing the smallest symplectic eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenvectors of symmetric positive-definite matrices in the sense of Williamson's theorem. It is formulated as minimizing a trace cost function…
Symplectic eigenvalues are conventionally defined for symmetric positive-definite matrices via Williamson's diagonal form. Many properties of standard eigenvalues, including the trace minimization theorem, are extended to the case of…

We regard the real symplectic group $Sp(2n,\mathbb{R})$ as a constraint submanifold of the $2n\times 2n$ real matrices $\mathcal{M}_{2n}(\mathbb{R})$ endowed with the Euclidean (Frobenius) metric, respectively as a submanifold of the…
Associated with every $2n\times 2n$ real positive definite matrix $A,$ there exist $n$ positive numbers called the symplectic eigenvalues of $A,$ and a basis of $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ called the symplectic eigenbasis of $A$ corresponding to…
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…

We formulate the issue of minimality of self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space as a semi-definite problem, linking the work by Overton in [1] to the characterization of minimal hermitian matrices. This motivates us to investigate the…
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…

For every $2n\times 2n$ real positive definite matrix $A,$ there exists a real symplectic matrix $M$ such that $M^TAM=\diag(D,D),$ where $D$ is the $n\times n$ positive diagonal matrix with diagonal entries $d_1(A)\le \cdots\le d_n(A).$ The…
Efficient solution of the lowest eigenmodes is studied for a family of related eigenvalue problems with common $2\times 2$ block structure. It is assumed that the upper diagonal block varies between different versions while the lower…
We introduce a price impact model which accounts for finite market depth, tightness and resilience. Its coupled bid- and ask-price dynamics induce convex liquidity costs. We provide existence of an optimal solution to the classical problem…

Symplectic integrators can be excellent for Hamiltonian initial value problems. Reasons for this include their preservation of invariant sets like tori, good energy behaviour, nonexistence of attractors, and good behaviour of statistical…
We show that symplectic integrators preserve bifurcations of Hamiltonian boundary value problems and that nonsymplectic integrators do not. We provide a universal description of the breaking of umbilic bifurcations by nonysmplectic…
