Perturbation Bounds for the Definite Generalized Eigenvalue Problem.

Abstract

It is shown that a definite problem has a complete system of eigenvectors and its eigenvalues are real. Under perturbations of A and B, the eigenvalues behave like the eigenvalues of a Hermitian matrix in the sense that there is a 1-1 pairing of the eigenvalues with the perturbed eigenvalues and a uniform bound for their differences (in this case in the chordal metric). Perturbation bounds are also developed for eigenvectors and eigenspaces.
