(There are a couple of other questions similar to this but the list of recommendations were average/standard and many of them focused on linear algebra whereas I am mainly interested in matrix properties and more obscure references).
It aims to be accessible and useful to a wide variety of students: grad students and advanced undergrads in pure and applied math, engineering grad students, and possibly others. Particular interests of faculty and grad students in my department which it aims to support include functional analysis, numerical analysis, and probability.
As indicated by the title, the emphasis is on analytic aspects of linear algebra and matrix theory -- i.e., those involving convergence, continuity, and inequalities -- as opposed to more algebraic aspects.
I wrote my dissertation on a problem in matrix analysis and I found that I had to read from several different sources to understand the material. I don't know which is the best book on the subject but I would suggest reading Bhatia's book and Horn's book.In addition to this, I would suggest that the students read a short research paper such as "Almost Commuting Unitaries" by Exel and Loring. The paper is only three pages and only assumes knowledge of basic real analysis/complex analysis and basic linear algebra.Moreover, it gives the class a good example of the interplay between analysis and linear algebra.
We present an extracellular matrix (ECM) microarray platform for the culture of patterned cells atop combinatorial matrix mixtures. This platform enables the study of differentiation in response to a multitude of microenvironments in parallel. The fabrication process required only access to a standard robotic DNA spotter, off-the-shelf materials and 1,000 times less protein than conventional means of investigating cell-ECM interactions. To demonstrate its utility, we applied this platform to study the effects of 32 different combinations of five extracellular matrix molecules (collagen I, collagen III, collagen IV, laminin and fibronectin) on cellular differentiation in two contexts: maintenance of primary rat hepatocyte phenotype indicated by intracellular albumin staining and differentiation of mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells toward an early hepatic fate, indicated by expression of a beta-galactosidase reporter fused to the fetal liver-specific gene, Ankrd17 (also known as gtar). Using this technique, we identified combinations of ECM that synergistically impacted both hepatocyte function and ES cell differentiation. This versatile technique can be easily adapted to other applications, as it is amenable to studying almost any insoluble microenvironmental cue in a combinatorial fashion and is compatible with several cell types.
This course explores matrix positivity and operations that preserve it. These involve fundamental questions that have been extensively studied over the past century, and are still being studied in the mathematics literature, including with additional motivation from modern applications to high-dimensional covariance estimation. The course will bring together techniques from different areas: analysis, linear algebra, combinatorics, and symmetric functions.
Positive semidefinite matrices are fundamental objects in semidefiniteprogramming, quantum information theory, and spectral graph theory. Despitetheir widespread utility, analysis and geometry on the PSD cone is oftenstrange, subtle and, occasionally, magical. This course will focus on theproperties of such matrices with an eye toward applications.
Rajendra Bhatia did his BSc and MSc from the University of Delhi and his PhD from the Indian Statistical Institute. He was a Reader at the University of Bombay from 1981 to 1984 , after which he joined the Indian Statistical Institute, Delhi, where he is now a Distinguished Scientist.
Academic and Research Achievements: Much of Bhatia's early work was devoted to perturbation of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices. In this area he obtained many fundamental results and introduced several novel ideas and techniques. The monograph Perturbation Bounds for Matrix Eigenvalues, published by Longman in 1987, was based on this work. This book stimulated a lot of work, became a standard reference, and was republished in 2007 in the series SIAM Classics in Applied Mathematics. After that he made major contributions to matrix inequalities, calculus of matrix functions, means of matrices, and connections between harmonic analysis, geometry and matrix analysis. The books Matrix Analysis (Springer Graduate Texts in Mathematics, 1997) and Positive Definite Matrices (Princeton Series in Applied Mathematics, 2007) are based substantially on his own contributions. Both have been highly acclaimed and have been widely used by research workers in analysis, linear algebra, numerical analysis, computer science, physics and electrical engineering.
Other Contributions: Rajendra Bhatia founded the series Texts and Readings in Mathematics. More recently he founded the series Culture and History of Mathematics in which major works on the history of Indian (and other) mathematics have appeared. Professor Bhatia has spent considerable effort on exposition of mathematics and written articles for pedagogical journals such as the Mathematical Intelligencer, American Mathematical Monthly and Resonance. Bhatia has served for many years on the editorial boards of several major international journals such as Linear Algebra and Its Applications, and SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis.
Awards and Honours: Professor Bhatia was awarded the INSA Medal for Young Scientists in 1982 and the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize in 1995. In 2016 he was awarded the Hans Schneider Prize for lifetime contributions to Linear Algebra. He is a Fellow of the Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore and the Third World Academy of Sciences. He is a JC Bose National Fellow.
MATH 5524 is a graduate survey of applicable topics in matrix analysis.Students are expected to arrive with a foundation in basic linear algebraat the undergraduate level.Topics will include: spectral theory, variational properties of eigenvalues, singluar values, eigenvalue perturbation theory, functions of matrices and dynamical systems, nonnegative matrices and Perron-Frobenius theory.
While we will not closely follow any single textbook, students are encouraged to obtain one of the following books, each of which covers most of the topics we will cover in the lectures.

We present below a new series of conjectures and open problems in the fields of (global) Optimization and Matrix analysis, in the same spirit as our recently published paper [J.-B. Hiriart-Urruty, Potpourri of conjectures and open questions in Nonlinear analysis and Optimization. SIAM Review 49 (2007) 255-273]. With each problem come a succinct presentation, a list of specific references, and a view on the state of the art of the subject.
Why is this the case? I understand that for symmetric matrices, there are many nice properties of eigenvalues. For example the eigenvalues of a real symmetric matrix are real. SVD comes from the eigenvalues of $A^TA$ which is symmetric, etc.
But why are we so confident that we usually don't need to find the eigenvalues of non-symmetric matrix? Is it purely because of the nice properties of symmetric matrix that make us tend to formulate our problems that way? If someone can explain or point to where Trefethen and Bau explains it, that would be great. I have that book, but I can't find the explanation based in the relevant chapters I went through.
So, the point is, how sure are you that the numbers in your matrix $A$ are correct? What if that measurement is only accurate to the third decimal digit? What about that tiny $2^-52$ error that you make when you truncate the coefficient 2/3 to a double? Those small perturbations affect your computed eigenvalues. There is little point in computing a number if you don't know how accurate it is in the first place. Or, worse, if you know from the start that it is inaccurate.
