- A symmetric real-valued matrix times an arbitrary vector:
-
- for example.
-
- A symmetric N×N matrix has N real Eigen-values
(not necessarily distinct).
-
- The naive Eigen-value algorithm finds
-
- The naive algorithm is easy to understand, but is slow,
finds only the |largest| Eigen-value (without extra work), and
is not always accurate.
-
- The Jacobi Eigen-value algorithm finds
-
- (random example computed by JavaScript)
-
- performs much better and returns all the Eigen-values and Eigen-vectors.
-
- There are many other Eigen-value algorithms.
-
- An Eigen-value finding algorithm is used
in Kearsley's method
for the 3-D superposition problem.
