Stability and uniqueness properties of Taylor approximations of matrix functions (Q2332383): Difference between revisions

This paper deals with Taylor approximations of matrix functions and some bounds which control the size of a perturbation in terms of the size of the Taylor remainder. More precisely, the authors present an estimate from below for traces of Taylor remainders in terms of the Frobenius norm and derive upper bounds for a perturbation in terms of spectral shift functions. They use the obtained bounds to derive a uniqueness result for spectral sums stating that if the trace of the Taylor remainder of order \(n\geq 2\) equals zero for a finite number of monomials, then the perturbation is zero. They apply their results to give an equivalence characterization for equality of two graphs in terms of finitely many relations between numbers of certain self-returning walks on the graphs.
