Corollary 4.4.18. A square complex matrix is conjugate normal if and only if it is unitarily congruent to a direct sum of nonnegative scalar multiples of real orthogonal matrices.
Proof. The previous theorem states that a conjugate-normal matrix is unitarily congruent to a direct sum of nonnegative scalar multiples of 1-by-1 and 2- by-2 real orthogonal matrices. Conversely, if \( A = {UZ}{U}^{T} \), in which \( U \) is unitary, \( Z = {\sigma }_{1}{Q}_{1} \oplus \cdots \oplus {\sigma }_{m}{Q}_{m...

Corollary 4.4.19. Let \( A \in {M}_{n} \) be skew symmetric.

Proof. Since \( A \) is skew symmetric, it is conjugate normal and its canonical form (4.4.17) must be skew symmetric. This implies that \( \sum = 0 \) and every \( {a}_{j} = 0 \) .

Corollary 4.4.21. Let \( V \in {M}_{n} \) be unitary. Then \( V \) is unitarily congruent to\n\n\[ \n{I}_{n - {2q}} \oplus \left\lbrack \begin{matrix} {a}_{1} & {b}_{1} \\ - {b}_{1} & {a}_{1} \end{matrix}\right\rbrack \oplus \cdots \oplus \left\lbrack \begin{matrix} {a}_{q} & {b}_{q} \\ - {b}_{q} & {a}_{q} \end{matrix}...
Proof. Since \( V \) is unitary, it is conjugate normal and its canonical form (4.4.17) must be unitary. This implies that \( \sum \) is unitary, so \( \sum = I \) . It also implies that each 2-by-2 direct summand in (4.4.17) is unitary. The blocks \( \left\lbrack \begin{matrix} {a}_{j} & {b}_{j} \\ - {b}_{j} & {a}_{j}...

Theorem 4.4.24. Each \( A \in {M}_{n} \) is similar to a complex symmetric matrix.
Proof. Each \( A \in {M}_{n} \) is similar to a direct sum of Jordan blocks, and the preceding exercises show that each Jordan block is similar to a symmetric matrix. Thus, each \( A \in {M}_{n} \) is similar to a direct sum of symmetric matrices.

Proof. Use the preceding theorem to write \( A = {SE}{S}^{-1} \), in which \( E = {E}^{T} \) and \( S \) is nonsingular. Then \( A = \left( {{SE}{S}^{T}}\right) {S}^{-T}{S}^{-1} = \left( {{SE}{S}^{T}}\right) {\left( S{S}^{T}\right) }^{-1} = \left( {S{S}^{T}}\right) \left( {{S}^{-T}E{S}^{-1}}\right) \) .

Theorem 4.4.27. Let \( A \in {M}_{n} \) be symmetric. Then \( A \) is diagonalizable if and only if it is complex orthogonally diagonalizable.

(a) If \( A\bar{A}x = 0 \), then \( A\bar{A} \) is singular, so \( 0 = \det A\bar{A} = {\left| \det \bar{A}\right| }^{2},\bar{A} \) is singular, there is a nonzero vector \( z \) such that \( \bar{A}z = 0 \) and \( \overline{\bar{A}}z = A\bar{z} = 0 \).

But it is interesting to have an essentially geometric derivation of this fact.\n\nSince \( {S}^{-1}{AS} \) has the same eigenvalues as \( A \) whenever \( S \) is nonsingular, we can apply the Geršgorin theorem to \( {S}^{-1}{AS} \) and thereby obtain additional eigenvalue inclusion sets for \( A \) .

The matrix \( A = \left\lbrack \begin{array}{ll} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 2 \end{array}\right\rbrack \) has eigenvalues 1 and 2 . A straightforward application of the Geršgorin theorem gives a rather gross estimate for the eigenvalues (Figure 6.1.7a), but the extra parameters in the preceding corollary give enough flexibility to o...

Theorem 6.1.11. Suppose that \( A = \left\lbrack {a}_{ij}\right\rbrack \in {M}_{n} \) has nonzero diagonal entries. If \( A \) is diagonally dominant and \( \left| {a}_{ii}\right| > {R}_{i}^{\prime } \) for at least \( n - 1 \) values of \( i \in \{ 1,\ldots, n\} \), then it is nonsingular.
Proof. For some \( k \) we have \( \left| {a}_{ii}\right| > {R}_{i}^{\prime } \) for all \( i \neq k \), and \( \left| {a}_{kk}\right| \geq {R}_{k}^{\prime } \) . If \( \left| {a}_{kk}\right| > {R}_{k}^{\prime } \) , nonsingularity of \( A \) follows from (6.1.10), so we suppose that \( \left| {a}_{kk}\right| = {R}_{k}...

Corollary 6.2.6. Let \( A = \left\lbrack {a}_{ij}\right\rbrack \in {M}_{n} \), and suppose that every entry of \( A \) is nonzero. If \( A \) is diagonally dominant and if there is a \( k \in \{ 1,\ldots, n\} \) such that \( \left| {a}_{kk}\right| > {R}_{k}^{\prime } \), then \( A \) is nonsingular.
Proof. Since \( A \) is diagonally dominant, \( \lambda = 0 \) satisfies the inequalities (6.2.2a). The hypothesis ensures that the \( k \) th Geršgorin circle does not pass through 0, so it follows from the preceding theorem that 0 is not an eigenvalue of \( A \) .

Proof. Weak irreducibility of \( A \) ensures that each of its deleted row sums is positive, so if \( \lambda \) is an eigenvalue of \( A \) and \( \lambda = {a}_{ii} \) for some \( i = 1,\ldots, n \), then \( \lambda \) is in the interior of the set (6.4.19). For the rest of the argument, we suppose that \( \lambda \)...

Corollary 7.1.5. Let \( A \in {M}_{n} \) be positive semidefinite (respectively, positive definite). Then \( \operatorname{tr}A,\det A \), and the principal minors of \( A \) are all nonnegative (respectively, positive). Moreover, \( \operatorname{tr}A = 0 \) if and only if \( A = 0 \) .
Proof. The trace of \( A \) is the sum of its eigenvalues, which are all nonnegative (respectively, positive); if that sum is zero, then each eigenvalue is zero and hence the diagonalizable matrix \( A \) is zero; see (1.3.4). The determinant of \( A \) is the product of its eigenvalues, which are all nonnegative. Prin...

Corollary 7.1.7. A positive semidefinite matrix is positive definite if and only if it is nonsingular.

Corollary 7.1.13. If \( A \in {M}_{n} \) has positive definite Hermitian part, then \( A \) has the row and column inclusion properties.
Proof. If \( H\left( A\right) \) is nonsingular, then (7.1.11(b)) ensures that \( \operatorname{rank}A = n = \operatorname{rank}H\left( A\right) \) , so the assertion follows from (7.1.12).
Yes
Corollary 7.2.2. If \( A \in {M}_{n} \) is positive semidefinite, then so is each \( {A}^{k}, k = 1,2,\ldots \) .
Proof. If the eigenvalues of \( A \) are \( {\lambda }_{1},\ldots ,{\lambda }_{n} \), then the eigenvalues of \( {A}^{k} \) are \( {\lambda }_{1}^{k},\ldots ,{\lambda }_{n}^{k} \) . The latter are nonnegative if the former are.

Corollary 7.2.3. Suppose that \( A = \left\lbrack {a}_{ij}\right\rbrack \in {M}_{n} \) is Hermitian and strictly diagonally dominant. If \( {a}_{ii} > 0 \) for all \( i = 1,2,\ldots, n \), then \( A \) is positive definite.
Proof. This is (6.1.10(c)). The conditions imply that each Geršgorin disc for \( A \) lies in the open right half-plane. Since the eigenvalues of a Hermitian matrix are all real, the eigenvalues of \( A \) must all be positive.

Then \( A \) is positive semidefinite...
Proof. The hypothesis is that the leading coefficients of \( {p}_{A}\left( t\right) \) are nonzero and alternate strictly in sign. If this condition is met, \( {p}_{A}\left( t\right) \) has no negative zeroes, so \( A \) has only nonnegative eigenvalues. Conversely, if \( A \) is positive semidefinite, denote its posit...
