    This article considers two point non-self-adjoint boundary eigenvalue problems for linear matrix differential operators \[ \mathbf{L} (\lambda, \mathbf{p}) \mathbf{u} = 0 \] with the boundary forms \[ \mathbf{U}_k (\lambda, \mathbf{p}) \mathbf{u} = 0, \quad k = 1, \dots, m, \] where \[ \mathbf{Lu} = \sum_{j=0}^m \mathbf{l}_j (x) \partial_x^{m-j} \mathbf{u}, \quad \det[\mathbf{l}_0 (x)] \not = 0 \] and \[ \mathbf{U}_k \mathbf{u} = \sum_{j=0}^{m-1} \mathbf{A}_{kj}\mathbf{u}_x^{(j)} (x=0) + \mathbf{B}_{kj}\mathbf{u}_x^{(j)} (x=1) \] with coefficient matrices (both in differential expressions and boundary conditions) depending analytically on the complex spectral parameter \(\lambda\) and on the vector of real physical parameters \(\mathbf{p}\). At \(\lambda (0) = \lambda_0\), \(\mathbf{p} (0) =\mathbf{p}_0\), for an analytic perturbation \(\lambda (\varepsilon)\) and \(\mathbf{p} (\varepsilon)\), the author gets an explicit expressions for the leading terms in the expansions for multiple-semisimple and non-derogatory eigenvalues and for the corresponding eigenvectors. Also, explicit formulae describing the bifurcation of the eigenvalues are derived. Moreover, application to the problem of excitation of unstable modes in rotating continua are given.
