The classical method is to first find the eigenvalues, and then calculate the eigenvectors for each eigenvalue. It is in several ways poorly suited for non-exact arithmetics such as floating-point. Eigenvalues. The eigenvalues of a matrix can be determined
The corresponding matrix of eigenvectors is unitary. The eigenvalues of a Hermitian matrix are real, since (λ − λ)v = (A* − A)v = (A − A)v = 0 for a non-zero eigenvector v. If A is real, there is an orthonormal basis for Rn consisting of eigenvectors of A if and only if A is symmetric.
Jacobi eigenvalue algorithm. In numerical linear algebra, the Jacobi eigenvalue algorithm is an iterative method for the calculation of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a real symmetric matrix (a process known as diagonalization ). It is named after Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi, who first proposed the method in 1846, [1] but only became widely ...
QR algorithm. In numerical linear algebra, the QR algorithm or QR iteration is an eigenvalue algorithm: that is, a procedure to calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix. The QR algorithm was developed in the late 1950s by John G. F. Francis and by Vera N. Kublanovskaya, working independently.
Eigendecomposition of a matrix. In linear algebra, eigendecomposition is the factorization of a matrix into a canonical form, whereby the matrix is represented in terms of its eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Only diagonalizable matrices can be factorized in this way.
In mathematics, power iteration (also known as the power method) is an eigenvalue algorithm: given a diagonalizable matrix , the algorithm will produce a number , which is the greatest (in absolute value) eigenvalue of , and a nonzero vector , which is a corresponding eigenvector of , that is, . The algorithm is also known as the Von Mises ...
Arnoldi iteration. In numerical linear algebra, the Arnoldi iteration is an eigenvalue algorithm and an important example of an iterative method. Arnoldi finds an approximation to the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of general (possibly non- Hermitian) matrices by constructing an orthonormal basis of the Krylov subspace, which makes it ...
Perron–Frobenius theorem. In matrix theory, the Perron–Frobenius theorem, proved by Oskar Perron ( 1907) and Georg Frobenius ( 1912 ), asserts that a real square matrix with positive entries has a unique eigenvalue of largest magnitude and that eigenvalue is real. The corresponding eigenvector can be chosen to have strictly positive ...
