چکیده
The article is devoted to different aspects of the question: ”What can be done with a complex-valued matrix by a low rank perturbation?” From the works of Thompson [15] we know how the Jordan normal form can be changed by a rank k perturbation, see Theorem 2. Particulary, it follows that one can do everything with a geometrically simple spectrum by a rank 1 perturbation, see Corollary 1. But the situation is quite different if one restricts oneself to normal matrices, see Theorem 3 and Corollary 2. We think that Corollary 2 may be considered as a finite dimension analogue of the continuous spectrum conservation under compact perturbations in Hilbert spaces. For unitary and self-adjoint matrices the inequality of Corollary 2 is the only restrictions on ”what can be done with a spectrum by a rank k perturbation”, see Theorem 4. We don’t know if there is an analogue of Theorem 4 for normal matrices. It is worth to mention that Corollary 2 for self-adjoint matrices follows from Cauchy interlacing theorem [2]. Theorem 4 is related with the converse Cauchy interlacing theorem [6]. The spectrum of H1 + H2 with known spectra of self-adjoint matrices H1 and H2 is studied a lot, see [9] and the bibliography therein. Although the complete set of restrictions on the spectrum H1+H2 known in this situation, we are not sure that there is an easy proof of Theorem 4 using results of [9]. Although Theorem 2 should be known (see, for example, [13], where Theorem 2 formulated in one direction), we will give a proof here, manly because our proof falls in a general framework , which is also used in the proof of Theorem 4. Let us describe the framework. The set Cn×n of all complex n×nmatrices (set of self-adjoint matrices) we equip with the arithmetic distance, d(A,B) = rank(A−B) (see [3]). The arithmetic distance is geodesic for these cases. The spectral properties of matrices, such as Weyr characteristics and spectra (multiset) also may be considered as a metric spaces with distance, related to the arithmetic distance on matrices, see Section 2. These distances also turn out to be geodesic. Then we prove Theorem 2 (Theorem 4) for rank(A− B) = 1 and the general results will follow from Proposition 1.

A multiresolution analysis for a Hilbert space realizes the Hilbert space as the direct limit of an increasing sequence of closed subspaces. In a previous paper, we showed how, conversely, direct limits could be used to construct Hilbert spaces which have multiresolution analyses with desired properties. In this paper, we use direct limits, and in particular the universal property which charact...

This paper concerns complex algebraic K3 surfaces with an automorphism which acts trivially on the Néron-Severi group. Complementing a result by Vorontsov and Kondō, we determine those K3 surfaces where the order of the automorphism is a 2-power and equals the rank of the transcendental lattice. We also study the arithmetic of these K3 surfaces and comment on mirror symmetry.

We study the problem of the existence of unconditional basic sequences in Banach spaces of high density. We show, in particular, the relative consistency with GCH of the statement that every Banach space of density אω contains an unconditional basic sequence.
