A generalization of the method of Chu, Liu and Mehrmann
for the computation of the Hamiltonian real Schur form is presented.
The new method avoids some of the difficulties that may arise when
a Hamiltonian matrix has tightly clustered groups of eigenvalues.
A detailed analysis of the method is presented and several numerical examples demonstrate the superior behavior of the method.
Canonical forms for matrix triples $(A,G,\hat G)$, where
$A$ is arbitrary rectangular and $G$, $\hat G$ are either real symmetric
or skew symmetric, or complex Hermitian or skew Hermitian, are derived.
These forms generalize classical product Schur forms as well as
singular value decompositions.
An new proof for the complex case is given, where there is no need to
distinguish whether $G$ and $\hat G$ are Hermitian or skew Hermitian.
This proof is independent from the results in Bolschakov/Reichstein 1995, where
a similar canonical form has been obtained for the complex case,
and it allows generalization to the real case. Here,
the three cases, i.e., that
$G$ and $\hat G$ are both symmetric, both skew symmetric or one each,
are treated separately.
