2x2 complex symmetric eigendecomposition - LAPACK subroutine CLAESY
Asking here because I searched the LAPACK user forums and found nothing.
I have a problem that requires the computation of the eigendecomposition $A=A^T=Q \Lambda Q^T$ for the 2x2 complex symmetric ...

Finding best phase in least-squares manner
I have the following problem:
$$argmin_{\vec{x},\phi}||A\vec{x}-\vec{y}e^{j\phi}||_2^2$$
Here, $x$ and $y$ are vectors and $\phi$ is a constant phase factor that applies to the all entries of $y$. I ...

Does the choice of a complex inner product affect Krylov methods?
As far as I understand there are two definitions of the complex inner product:
$$(a,b) = b^H a$$
and
$$(a,b) = a^H b$$
I know some linear algebra libraries such as BLAS and Eigen uses the second one.

Simplification of complex amplitudes
In a previous answer the following identity was presented
$$-i \vec \kappa \exp^{[i\vec \kappa \cdot (\vec r_j - \vec r_i)]} = -\vec \kappa \sin[\vec \kappa \cdot (\vec r_j - \vec r_i)] \, .$$

Why does this implementation for Eisenstein integer pairs of Euclid's method for finding greatest common denominators get stuck for this one point?
My Math SE question determining if a coincident point in a pair of rotated hexagonal lattices is closest to the origin? explains the problem I have. I won't reproduce the whole thing in detail here, ...

Power of complex-valued neural network
I often see neural networks extended to complex-values. Those networks allow complex input, complex parameters, and complex output. My understanding is that the inner products and point nonlinearities ...
