报告摘要：Given an $n\times n$ matrix $A$, the celebrated Toeplitz-Hausdorff theorem asserts that the classical numerical range $\{x^*Ax: x\in {\mathbb C}^n: x^*x=1\}$ is a convex set, where ${\mathbb C}^n$ is the vector space of complex $n$-tuples and $x^*$ is the complex conjugate transpose of $x\in {\mathbb C}^n$. Schur-Horn Theorem asserts that the set of the diagonals of Hermitian matrices of a prescribed eigenvalues is the convex hull of the orbit of the eigenvalues under the action of the symmetric groups. These results are about unitary orbit of a matrix. Among interesting generalizations, we will focus our discussion on those in the context of Lie structure, more precisely, compact connected Lie groups and semisimple Lie algebras. Some results on convexity and star-shapedness will be presented.
