Popis: If the m th largest eigenvalue λ m ( A ) of a real symmetric matrix A is simple, then λ m ( · ) is an analytic function in a neighbourhood of A . In this note, we provide a new derivation of the classical formulae for the coefficients in the power series expansion of t ↦ λ m ( A + tE ) for any real symmetric matrix E and t close to 0. Kato’s classical derivation of that formula uses a complex-analytic approach involving properties of the resolvent of A + tE . Our derivation uses simple real-analytic and combinatorial arguments. In particular, we derive and utilize a formula for the derivative of the Moore–Penrose generalized inverse of the map X ↦ λ m ( X ) I - X in direction E at real symmetric matrix A for any real symmetric matrix E .
