Hi!
I have a mathematical problem with eigenvalues and -vectors.
I need a special solution for the usual eigenvalue problem A*x = lambda*x where x is a vector and A a
positive definite and symmetric real matrix.
Using the EIGENQL function in IDL you can easily compute the eigenvectors and eigenvalues for that
equation.
My problem is that I need a constrained solution in the form
A*v = B*v*D
A is again the matrix to find the eigenvalues for, B is the constraint matrix and v is the vector of
eigenvalues and D the matrix of eigenvectors.
Matlab offers a function for that. Here is the excerpt from their online help:
[V,D] = eig(A,B) produces a diagonal matrix D of generalized eigenvalues and
a full matrix V whose columns are the corresponding eigenvectors so
that A*V = B*V*D.
(see http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/techdoc/ref/ei g.shtml for the full documentation)
Does anyone have an IDL-function that does the same job? Or does anyone know how to do it with the IDL
matrix tools?
Thanx for any advice!
