Replacing Singular Values of a Matrix with Complex Ones

63 Views Asked by At

Is there a procedure to replace singular values of a real valued matrix according to:

s1 -> i*s1

s2 -> i*s2

...

without going through any singular value decomposition (change singular values and repack) or any similar costly procedure?

Thanks

The SVD of $A=U\Sigma V^{\star}$. Your matrix is $\Sigma^{\prime}=i\Sigma$. Then you can just write $$ A=-iU\Sigma^{\prime}V^{\star}. $$
