A note on the numerical solution of complex Hamiltonian and skew-Hamiltonian eigenvalue problems

Peter Benner, Volker Mehrmann, and Hongguo Xu

Abstract

In this paper we describe a simple observation that can be used to extend two recently proposed structure preserving methods for the eigenvalue problem for real Hamiltonian matrices to the case of complex Hamiltonian and skew-Hamiltonian matrices.
