Hamiltonian Square Roots of Skew-Hamiltonian Matrices
We present a constructive existence proof that every real skew-Hamiltonian matrix W has a real Hamiltonian square root. The key step in this construction shows how one may bring any such W into a real quasi-Jordan canonical form via symplectic similarity. We show further that every W has infinitely many real Hamiltonian square roots, and give a lower bound on the dimension of the set of all suc...
متن کاملStability radii of symplectic and Hamiltonian matrices
We review the Krein-Gel'fand-Lidskii theory of strong stability of Hamiltonian and symplectic matrices in order to nd a quantitative measure of the strong stability. As a result, formulas for the 2-norm distance from a strongly stable Hamiltonian or symplectic matrix to the set of unstable matrices are derived. 1 Deenition and simple properties of symplectic and Hamiltonian matrices Throughout ...
متن کاملCondensed Forms for Skew-Hamiltonian/Hamiltonian Pencils
Abstract In this paper we consider real or complex skew-Hamiltonian/Hamiltonian pencils λS −H, i.e., pencils where S is a skew-Hamiltonian and H is a Hamiltonian matrix. These pencils occur for example in the theory of continuous time, linear quadratic optimal control problems. We reduce these pencils to canonical and Schur-type forms under structure-preserving transformations, i.e., J-congruen...
متن کاملComputation of functions of Hamiltonian and skew-symmetric matrices
In this paper we consider numerical methods for computing functions of matrices being Hamiltonian and skew-symmetric. Analytic functions of this kind of matrices (i.e., exponential and rational functions) appear in the numerical solutions of orthosymplectic matrix differential systems when geometric integrators are involved. The main idea underlying the presented techniques is to exploit the sp...
متن کاملPerturbation Bounds for Isotropic Invariant Subspaces of Skew-Hamiltonian Matrices
Abstract. We investigate the behavior of isotropic invariant subspaces of skew-Hamiltonian matrices under structured perturbations. It is shown that finding a nearby subspace is equivalent to solving a certain quadratic matrix equation. This connection is used to derive meaningful error bounds and condition numbers that can be used to judge the quality of invariant subspaces computed by strongl...
