On dense subsets of matrices with distinct eigenvalues and distinct singular values

Abstract: It is well known that the set of all $ n \times n $ matrices with distinct eigenvalues is a dense subset of the set of all real or complex $ n \times n $ matrices. In [Hartfiel, D. J. Dense sets of diagonalizable matrices. Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 123(6): 1669-1672, 1995.], the author established a necessary and sufficient condition for a subspace of the set of all $n \times n$ matrices to have a dense subset of matrices with distinct eigenvalues. We are interested in finding a few necessary and sufficient conditions for a subset of the set of all $n \times n$ real or complex matrices to have a dense subset of matrices with distinct eigenvalues. Some of our results are generalizing the results of Hartfiel. Also, we study the existence of dense subsets of matrices with distinct singular values, distinct analytic eigenvalues, and distinct analytic singular values, respectively, in the subsets of the set of all real or complex matrices.
