  2. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalues_and_eigenvectors

    Eigenvalue problems occur naturally in the vibration analysis of mechanical structures with many degrees of freedom. The eigenvalues are the natural frequencies (or eigenfrequencies) of vibration, and the eigenvectors are the shapes of these vibrational modes.

  3. Eigenvalue algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigenvalue_algorithm

    Given an n × n square matrix A of real or complex numbers, an eigenvalue λ and its associated generalized eigenvector v are a pair obeying the relation [1] =,where v is a nonzero n × 1 column vector, I is the n × n identity matrix, k is a positive integer, and both λ and v are allowed to be complex even when A is real.l When k = 1, the vector is called simply an eigenvector, and the pair ...

  4. Jacobi eigenvalue algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_eigenvalue_algorithm

    Thus one can only calculate the numerical rank by making a decision which of the eigenvalues are close enough to zero. Pseudo-inverse The pseudo inverse of a matrix A {\displaystyle A} is the unique matrix X = A + {\displaystyle X=A^{+}} for which A X {\displaystyle AX} and X A {\displaystyle XA} are symmetric and for which A X A = A , X A X ...

  5. Arnoldi iteration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 particularly useful when dealing with large sparse matrices.

  6. Rayleigh quotient iteration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_quotient_iteration

    Rayleigh quotient iteration is an eigenvalue algorithm which extends the idea of the inverse iteration by using the Rayleigh quotient to obtain increasingly accurate eigenvalue estimates. Rayleigh quotient iteration is an iterative method, that is, it delivers a sequence of approximate solutions that converges to a true solution in the limit ...

  7. Characteristic polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_polynomial

    In linear algebra, eigenvalues and eigenvectors play a fundamental role, since, given a linear transformation, an eigenvector is a vector whose direction is not changed by the transformation, and the corresponding eigenvalue is the measure of the resulting change of magnitude of the vector.

  8. Eigendecomposition of a matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eigendecomposition_of_a_matrix

    Let A be a square n × n matrix with n linearly independent eigenvectors q i (where i = 1, ..., n).Then A can be factored as = where Q is the square n × n matrix whose i th column is the eigenvector q i of A, and Λ is the diagonal matrix whose diagonal elements are the corresponding eigenvalues, Λ ii = λ i.

  9. QR algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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.
