Eigensystem computation for skew-symmetric matrices and a class of symmetric matrices

Journal Article · · ACM Trans. Math. Software; (United States)
An algorithm is described for computing the eigenvalues and (optionally) the eigenvectors of either a skew-symmetric matrix or a symmetric tridiagonal matrix with constant diagonal. The algorithm uses only orthogonal similarity transformations, and is believed to be the most efficient procedure available for computing all the eigenvalues or the complete eigensystem. 2 tables.
