Symmetric anti-eigenvalue and symmetric anti-eigenvector

The idea of symmetric anti-eigenvalue and symmetric anti-eigenvector of a bounded linear operator T on a Hilbert space H is introduced. The structure of symmetric anti-eigenvectors of a self-adjoint and certain classes of normal operators is found in terms of eigenvectors. The Kantorovich inequality for self-adjoint operators and bounds for symmetric antieigenvalues for certain classes of normal operators are also discussed.
