In linear algebra, skew-Hamiltonian matrices are special matrices which correspond to skew-symmetric bilinear forms on a symplectic vector space.

Let V be a vector space, equipped with a symplectic form Ω. Such a space must be even-dimensional. A linear map A:VV is called a skew-Hamiltonian operator with respect to Ω if the form x,yΩ(A(x),y) is skew-symmetric.

Choose a basis e1,...e2n in V, such that Ω is written as ieien+i. Then a linear operator is skew-Hamiltonian with respect to Ω if and only if its matrix A satisfies ATJ=JA, where J is the skew-symmetric matrix

J=[0InIn0]

and In is the n×n identity matrix.[1] Such matrices are called skew-Hamiltonian.

The square of a Hamiltonian matrix is skew-Hamiltonian. The converse is also true: every skew-Hamiltonian matrix can be obtained as the square of a Hamiltonian matrix.[1][2]
