eigenvalues(...,Hermitian=>...) -- whether to assume the matrix is symmetric or Hermitian
-
- Usage:
eigenvalues(M, Hermitian=>true)
-
Consequences:
- The resulting list of eigenvalues is defined over RR, not CC.
Caveat
The internal routine uses a different algorithm, only considering the upper triangular elements. So if the matrix is not symmetric or Hermitian, the routine will give incorrect results.
