Eigenvalues of the Sum of Matrices from Unitary Similarity Orbits
SIAM. J. Matrix Anal. & Appl. Volume 30, Issue 2, pp. 560-581 (2008)
Published June 6, 2008Let $A$ and $B$ be $n\times n$ complex matrices. Characterization is given for the set ${\cal E}(A,B)$ of eigenvalues of matrices of the form $U^*AU+V^*BV$ for some unitary matrices $U$ and $V$. Consequences of the results are discussed and computer algorithms and programs are designed to generate the set ${\cal E}(A,B)$. The results refine those of Wielandt on normal matrices. Extensions of the results to the sum of matrices from three or more unitary similarity orbits are also considered.
