Detailed Description

template<typename _MatrixType>
class EigenSolver< _MatrixType >

Computes eigenvalues and eigenvectors of general matrices.

Template Parameters:
_MatrixType the type of the matrix of which we are computing the eigendecomposition; this is expected to be an instantiation of the Matrix class template. Currently, only real matrices are supported.

The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix $ A $ are scalars $ \lambda $ and vectors $ v $ such that $ Av = \lambda v $. If $ D $ is a diagonal matrix with the eigenvalues on the diagonal, and $ V $ is a matrix with the eigenvectors as its columns, then $ A V = V D $. The matrix $ V $ is almost always invertible, in which case we have $ A = V D V^{-1} $. This is called the eigendecomposition.

The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix may be complex, even when the matrix is real. However, we can choose real matrices $ V $ and $ D $ satisfying $ A V = V D $, just like the eigendecomposition, if the matrix $ D $ is not required to be diagonal, but if it is allowed to have blocks of the form

\[ \begin{bmatrix} u & v \\ -v & u \end{bmatrix} \]

(where $ u $ and $ v $ are real numbers) on the diagonal. These blocks correspond to complex eigenvalue pairs $ u \pm iv $. We call this variant of the eigendecomposition the pseudo-eigendecomposition.

Call the function compute() to compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a given matrix. Alternatively, you can use the EigenSolver(const MatrixType&, bool) constructor which computes the eigenvalues and eigenvectors at construction time. Once the eigenvalue and eigenvectors are computed, they can be retrieved with the eigenvalues() and eigenvectors() functions. The pseudoEigenvalueMatrix() and pseudoEigenvectors() methods allow the construction of the pseudo-eigendecomposition.

The documentation for EigenSolver(const MatrixType&, bool) contains an example of the typical use of this class.

Note:
The implementation is adapted from JAMA (public domain). Their code is based on EISPACK.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename _MatrixType>
EigenSolver< _MatrixType >::EigenSolver (  )  [inline]

Default constructor.

The default constructor is useful in cases in which the user intends to perform decompositions via EigenSolver::compute(const MatrixType&, bool).

See also:
compute() for an example.
template<typename _MatrixType>
EigenSolver< _MatrixType >::EigenSolver ( Index  size  )  [inline]

Default constructor with memory preallocation.

Like the default constructor but with preallocation of the internal data according to the specified problem size.

See also:
EigenSolver()
template<typename _MatrixType>
EigenSolver< _MatrixType >::EigenSolver ( const MatrixType &  matrix,
bool  computeEigenvectors = true 
) [inline]

Constructor; computes eigendecomposition of given matrix.

Parameters:
[in] matrix Square matrix whose eigendecomposition is to be computed.
[in] computeEigenvectors If true, both the eigenvectors and the eigenvalues are computed; if false, only the eigenvalues are computed.

This constructor calls compute() to compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors.

Example:

Parameters:

Returns:
Reference to *this 


This function computes the eigenvalues of the real matrix matrix. The eigenvalues() function can be used to retrieve them. If computeEigenvectors is true, then the eigenvectors are also computed and can be retrieved by calling eigenvectors().


The matrix is first reduced to real Schur form using the RealSchur class. The Schur decomposition is then used to compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors.


The cost of the computation is dominated by the cost of the Schur decomposition, which is very approximately $ 25n^3 $ (where $ n $ is the size of the matrix) if computeEigenvectors is true, and $ 10n^3 $ if computeEigenvectors is false.


This method reuses of the allocated data in the EigenSolver object.

Returns:
A const reference to the column vector containing the eigenvalues.


Precondition:
Either the constructor EigenSolver(const MatrixType&,bool) or the member function compute(const MatrixType&, bool) has been called before.


The eigenvalues are repeated according to their algebraic multiplicity, so there are as many eigenvalues as rows in the matrix. The eigenvalues are not sorted in any particular order.

Column $ k $ of the returned matrix is an eigenvector corresponding to eigenvalue number $ k $ as returned by eigenvalues(). The eigenvectors are normalized to have (Euclidean) norm equal to one. The matrix returned by this function is the matrix $ V $ in the eigendecomposition $ A = V D V^{-1} $, if it exists.
