IMSL_EIGSYMGEN
The IMSL_EIGSYMGEN function computes the generalized eigenexpansion of a system Ax = λBx. The matrices A and B are real and symmetric, and B is positive definite.
This routine requires an IDL Advanced Math and Stats license. For more information, contact your sales or technical support representative.
The IMSL_EIGSYMGEN function computes the eigenvalues of a symmetric, positive definite eigenvalue problem by a three-phase process (Martin and Wilkinson 1971). Matrix B is reduced to factored form using the Cholesky decomposition. These factors are used to form a congruence transformation that yields a symmetric real matrix whose eigenexpansion is obtained. The problem is then transformed back to the original coordinates. Eigenvectors are calculated and transformed as required.
Examples
Example 1
This example computes the generalized eigenexpansion of a system Ax = λBx, where A and B are 3-by-3 matrices.
RM, a, 3, 3
; Define the matrix A.
row 0: 1.1 1.2 1.4
row 1: 1.2 1.3 1.5
row 2: 1.4 1.5 1.6
RM, b, 3, 3
; Define the matrix B.
row 0: 2 1 0
row 1: 1 2 1
row 2: 0 1 2
eigval = IMSL_EIGSYMGEN(a, b)
; Call IMSL_EIGSYMGEN to compute the eigenexpansion.

Example 2
This example is a variation of the first example. It computes the eigenvectors as well as the eigenvalues.
RM, a, 3, 3
; Define the matrix A.

row 1: 1.2 1.3 1.5
row 2: 1.4 1.5 1.6
RM, b, 3, 3
; Define the matrix B.
row 0: 2 1 0
row 1: 1 2 1
row 2: 0 1 2
eigval = IMSL_EIGSYMGEN(a, b, Vectors = eigvec)
; Call IMSL_EIGSYMGEN with keyword Vectors to specify the named
; variable in which the vectors are stored.
