Given a real-valued positive semidefinite matrix, Williamson proved that it can be diagonalised using symplectic matrices. The corresponding diagonal values are known as the symplectic spectrum. This paper is concerned with the stability of Williamsons decomposition under perturbations. We provide norm bounds for the stability of the symplectic eigenvalues and prove that if $S$ diagonalises a given matrix $M$ to Williamson form, then $S$ is stable if the symplectic spectrum is nondegenerate and $S^TS$ is always stable. Finally, we sketch a few applications of the results in quantum information theory.

We consider a compact perturbation $H_0 = S + K_0^* K_0$ of a self-adjoint operator $S$ with an eigenvalue $lambda^circ$ below its essential spectrum and the corresponding eigenfunction $f$. The perturbation is assumed to be along the eigenfunction $ f$, namely $K_0f=0$. The eigenvalue $lambda^circ$ belongs to the spectra of both $H_0$ and $S$. Let $S$ have $sigma$ more eigenvalues below $lambda^circ$ than $H_0$; $sigma$ is known as the spectral shift at $lambda^circ$. We now allow the perturbation to vary in a suitable operator space and study the continuation of the eigenvalue $lambda^circ$ in the spectrum of $H(K)=S + K^* K$. We show that the eigenvalue as a function of $K$ has a critical point at $K=K_0$ and the Morse index of this critical point is the spectral shift $sigma$. A version of this theorem also holds for some non-positive perturbations.
Let $A$ be a self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space $fH$. Assume that the spectrum of $A$ consists of two disjoint components $sigma_0$ and $sigma_1$. Let $V$ be a bounded operator on $fH$, off-diagonal and $J$-self-adjoint with respect to the orth ogonal decomposition $fH=fH_0oplusfH_1$ where $fH_0$ and $fH_1$ are the spectral subspaces of $A$ associated with the spectral sets $sigma_0$ and $sigma_1$, respectively. We find (optimal) conditions on $V$ guaranteeing that the perturbed operator $L=A+V$ is similar to a self-adjoint operator. Moreover, we prove a number of (sharp) norm bounds on variation of the spectral subspaces of $A$ under the perturbation $V$. Some of the results obtained are reformulated in terms of the Krein space theory. As an example, the quantum harmonic oscillator under a PT-symmetric perturbation is discussed.
Bounds on the exponential decay of generalized eigenfunctions of bounded and unbounded selfadjoint Jacobi matrices are established. Two cases are considered separately: (i) the case in which the spectral parameter lies in a general gap of the spectru m of the Jacobi matrix and (ii) the case of a lower semi-bounded Jacobi matrix with values of the spectral parameter below the spectrum. It is demonstrated by examples that both results are sharp. We apply these results to obtain a many barriers-type criterion for the existence of square-summable generalized eigenfunctions of an unbounded Jacobi matrix at almost every value of the spectral parameter in suitable open sets. As an application, we provide examples of unbounded Jacobi matrices with a spectral mobility edge.
We provide upper bounds on the perturbation of invariant subspaces of normal matrices measured using a metric on the space of vector subspaces of $mathbb{C}^n$ in terms of the spectrum of both the unperturbed & perturbed matrices, as well as, spectru m of the unperturbed matrix only. The results presented give tighter bounds than the Davis-Khan $sinTheta$ theorem. We apply the result to a graph perturbation problem.
This work offers a new prospective on asymptotic perturbation theory for varying self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators. Employing symplectic formulation of self-adjointness we obtain a new version of Krein formula for resolvent difference wh ich facilitates asymptotic analysis of resolvent operators via first order expansion for the family of Lagrangian planes associated with perturbed operators. Specifically, we derive a Riccati-type differential equation and the first order asymptotic expansion for resolvents of self-adjoint extensions determined by smooth one-parameter families of Lagrangian planes. This asymptotic perturbation theory yields a symplectic version of the abstract Kato selection theorem and Hadamard-Rellich-type variational formula for slopes of multiple eigenvalue curves bifurcating from an eigenvalue of the unperturbed operator. The latter, in turn, gives a general infinitesimal version of the celebrated formula equating the spectral flow of a path of self-adjoint extensions and the Maslov index of the corresponding path of Lagrangian planes. Applications are given to quantum graphs, periodic Kronig-Penney model, elliptic second order partial differential operators with Robin boundary conditions, and physically relevant heat equations with thermal conductivity.
