[For the entire collection see Zbl 0734.00014.] The main result of this paper is the following generalization of the Schur form of a matrix. Let the square matrix \(A(t)\), whose elements are analytic functions on the interval \([a,b]\), have eigenvalues which are real on \([a,b]\). Then there exists a unitary matrix \(U(t)\) which is also analytic in the same interval such that the matrix \(U^*(t)A(t)U(t)\) is upper triangular and whose elements are analytic functions on \([a,b]\). The method of proof is constructive. Use is made of an extension of the Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization process which preserves the analyticity of the vectors. There is a survey of previous work in this area.
