Abstract: Let be a normalised standard complex Gaussian vector, and project an Hermitian matrix A onto the hyperplane orthogonal to . In a recent paper Faraut [Tunisian J. Math. extbf{1} (2019), 585--606] has observed that the corresponding eigenvalue PDF has an almost identical structure to the eigenvalue PDF for the rank 1 perturbation , and asks for an explanation. We provide this by way of a common derivation involving the secular equations and associated Jacobians. This applies too in related setting, for example when is a real Gaussian and A Hermitian, and also in a multiplicative setting AUBUdagger where A,B are fixed unitary matrices with B a multiplicative rank 1 deviation from unity, and U is a Haar distributed unitary matrix. Specifically, in each case there is a dual eigenvalue problem giving rise to a PDF of almost identical structure.
