An algorithm is presented for computing the eigenvalues of smallest magnitude and their associated eigenvectors of the quadratic lambda-matrix M lambda/sup 2/ + C lambda + K. M, C, and K are assumed to be symmetric matrices with K positive definite and M negative definite. The algorithm is based on a generalization of the Rayleigh quotient and the Lanczos method for computing eigenpairs of standard symmetric eigenproblems. Monotone quadratic convergence to the smallest positive and negative eigenvalue is proved. Test examples are presented.
