Abstract
We study the eigenvalue trajectories of a time dependent matrix for , where H is an Hermitian random matrix and v is a unit vector. In particular, we establish that with high probability, an outlier can be distinguished at all times , for any . The study of this natural process combines elements of Hermitian and non-Hermitian analysis, and illustrates some aspects of the intrinsic instability of (even weakly) non-Hermitian matrices.
