Leading coefficients of the eigenvalues of perturbed analytic matrix functions (Q2367203): Difference between revisions

In these papers the authors continue their study of the behavior of eigenvalues \(\lambda(\varepsilon)\) of a perturbed analytic matrix function \(T(\lambda,\varepsilon)= A(\lambda)+B(\lambda,\varepsilon)\) near an eigenvalue \(\lambda_ 0\) of \(T(\lambda,0)=A(\lambda)\). Using the Newton diagram of \(\text{det }T(\lambda,\varepsilon)\) they obtained Puiseux expansions \[ \lambda(\varepsilon)=\lambda_ 0+ a\varepsilon^ \alpha+ o(|\varepsilon|^ \alpha)\quad(\varepsilon\to 0); \] cf. parts I and II [Integr. Equat. Oper. Th. 9, 592-599 (1986; Zbl 0605.47013), ibid. 12, No. 3, 392-407 (1989; Zbl 0682.47004)]. It is shown that such expansions already hold under weaker assumptions on the corresponding ``perturbation matrix''. Moreover, the method allows to count the number of eigenvalue branches \(\lambda(\varepsilon)\) within a given range of possible exponents \(\alpha\), and (in the second paper) also the number of real positive and real negative leading coefficients \(a\).
