Detailed Description

template<typename _MatrixType>
class Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >

Computes eigenvalues and eigenvectors of selfadjoint 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.

A matrix $ A $ is selfadjoint if it equals its adjoint. For real matrices, this means that the matrix is symmetric: it equals its transpose. This class computes the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a selfadjoint matrix. These are the scalars $\lambda$ and vectors $ v $ such that $Av = \lambda v$ . The eigenvalues of a selfadjoint matrix are always real. If $ D $ is a diagonal matrix with the eigenvalues on the diagonal, and $ V $ is a matrix with the eigenvectors as its columns, then $A = V D V^{-1}$ (for selfadjoint matrices, the matrix $ V $ is always invertible). This is called the eigendecomposition.

The algorithm exploits the fact that the matrix is selfadjoint, making it faster and more accurate than the general purpose eigenvalue algorithms implemented in EigenSolver and ComplexEigenSolver.

Only the lower triangular part of the input matrix is referenced.

Call the function compute() to compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a given matrix. Alternatively, you can use the SelfAdjointEigenSolver(const MatrixType&, int) 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 documentation for SelfAdjointEigenSolver(const MatrixType&, int) contains an example of the typical use of this class.

To solve the generalized eigenvalue problem $Av = \lambda Bv$ and the likes, see the class GeneralizedSelfAdjointEigenSolver.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<typename _MatrixType>

Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >::SelfAdjointEigenSolver ( ) [inline]

Default constructor for fixed-size matrices.

The default constructor is useful in cases in which the user intends to perform decompositions via compute(). This constructor can only be used if _MatrixType is a fixed-size matrix; use SelfAdjointEigenSolver(Index) for dynamic-size matrices.

Example:

Output:

Definition at line 112 of file SelfAdjointEigenSolver.h.

template<typename _MatrixType>

Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >::SelfAdjointEigenSolver ( Index size ) [inline]

Constructor, pre-allocates memory for dynamic-size matrices.

Parameters:

[in] size Positive integer, size of the matrix whose eigenvalues and eigenvectors will be computed.

This constructor is useful for dynamic-size matrices, when the user intends to perform decompositions via compute(). The size parameter is only used as a hint. It is not an error to give a wrong size, but it may impair performance.

See also:: compute() for an example

template<typename _MatrixType>

Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >::SelfAdjointEigenSolver	(	const MatrixType &	matrix,
		int	options = `ComputeEigenvectors`
	)		`[inline]`

Constructor; computes eigendecomposition of given matrix.

Parameters:

[in]	matrix	Selfadjoint matrix whose eigendecomposition is to be computed. Only the lower triangular part of the matrix is referenced.
[in]	options	Can be ComputeEigenvectors (default) or EigenvaluesOnly.

This constructor calls compute(const MatrixType&, int) to compute the eigenvalues of the matrix matrix. The eigenvectors are computed if options equals ComputeEigenvectors.

Example:

Output:

Member Function Documentation

template<typename MatrixType >

SelfAdjointEigenSolver< MatrixType > & Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< MatrixType >::compute	(	const MatrixType &	matrix,
		int	options = `ComputeEigenvectors`
	)

Computes eigendecomposition of given matrix.

Parameters:

[in]	matrix	Selfadjoint matrix whose eigendecomposition is to be computed. Only the lower triangular part of the matrix is referenced.
[in]	options	Can be ComputeEigenvectors (default) or EigenvaluesOnly.

Returns:: Reference to *this

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

This implementation uses a symmetric QR algorithm. The matrix is first reduced to tridiagonal form using the Tridiagonalization class. The tridiagonal matrix is then brought to diagonal form with implicit symmetric QR steps with Wilkinson shift. Details can be found in Section 8.3 of Golub & Van Loan, Matrix Computations.

The cost of the computation is about $ 9n^3 $ if the eigenvectors are required and $ 4n^3/3 $ if they are not required.

This method reuses the memory in the SelfAdjointEigenSolver object that was allocated when the object was constructed, if the size of the matrix does not change.

Example:

Output:

template<typename MatrixType >

SelfAdjointEigenSolver< MatrixType > & Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< MatrixType >::computeDirect	(	const MatrixType &	matrix,
		int	options = `ComputeEigenvectors`
	)

Computes eigendecomposition of given matrix using a direct algorithm.

This is a variant of compute(const MatrixType&, int options) which directly solves the underlying polynomial equation.

Currently only 3x3 matrices for which the sizes are known at compile time are supported (e.g., Matrix3d).

This method is usually significantly faster than the QR algorithm but it might also be less accurate. It is also worth noting that for 3x3 matrices it involves trigonometric operations which are not necessarily available for all scalar types.

template<typename _MatrixType>

const RealVectorType& Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >::eigenvalues ( ) const [inline]

Returns the eigenvalues of given matrix.

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

Precondition:: The eigenvalues have been computed before.

The eigenvalues are repeated according to their algebraic multiplicity, so there are as many eigenvalues as rows in the matrix. The eigenvalues are sorted in increasing order.

Example:

Output:

Definition at line 250 of file SelfAdjointEigenSolver.h.

template<typename _MatrixType>

const MatrixType& Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >::eigenvectors ( ) const [inline]

Returns the eigenvectors of given matrix.

Returns:: A const reference to the matrix whose columns are the eigenvectors.

Precondition:: The eigenvectors have been computed before.

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. If this object was used to solve the eigenproblem for the selfadjoint matrix $ A $ , then the matrix returned by this function is the matrix $ V $ in the eigendecomposition $A = V D V^{-1}$ .

Output:

template<typename _MatrixType>

ComputationInfo Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >::info ( ) const [inline]

Reports whether previous computation was successful.

Returns:: Success if computation was succesful, NoConvergence otherwise.

Definition at line 310 of file SelfAdjointEigenSolver.h.

template<typename _MatrixType>

MatrixType Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >::operatorInverseSqrt ( ) const [inline]

Computes the inverse square root of the matrix.

Returns:: the inverse positive-definite square root of the matrix

Precondition:: The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a positive-definite matrix have been computed before.

This function uses the eigendecomposition $A = V D V^{-1}$ to compute the inverse square root as $V D^{-1/2} V^{-1}$ . This is cheaper than first computing the square root with operatorSqrt() and then its inverse with MatrixBase::inverse().

Example:

Output:

template<typename _MatrixType>

MatrixType Eigen::SelfAdjointEigenSolver< _MatrixType >::operatorSqrt ( ) const [inline]

Computes the positive-definite square root of the matrix.

Returns:: the positive-definite square root of the matrix

Precondition:: The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a positive-definite matrix have been computed before.

The square root of a positive-definite matrix $ A $ is the positive-definite matrix whose square equals $ A $ . This function uses the eigendecomposition $A = V D V^{-1}$ to compute the square root as $A^{1/2} = V D^{1/2} V^{-1}$ .
