The author applies the Lefschetz fixed point theorem to show that every square matrix over the quaternions has right eigenvalues. The paper classifies them and discusses some of their properties such as an analogue of Jordan canonical form and diagonalization of elements of the compact symplectic group \(Sp(n)\).
