| contents | Williamson's theorem is well known for symmetric matrices. In this paper, we state and re-derive some of the cases of Williamson's theorem for symmetric positive-semi definite matrices and symmetric matrices having negative index 1, due to Hörmander. We prove theorems that guarantee conditions under which two symmetric positive-definite matrices can be simultaneously diagonalized in the sense of Williamson's theorem and their corollaries. Finally, we provide an application of this result to physical systems and another connecting the decompositions for the degenerate and non-degenerate cases, involving phase space constraints that we later apply to phase space cylinders and ellipsoids via symplectic capacities. |
