Hej Val, Thank you very much for your replies. Yes, I know that both eigenvectors are correct while they are indeed related to each other by unitary transformations (unitary matrices). Actually, what I am trying to do is to evaluate the Berry phase which is closely related to the gauge

Dears, Though it might sounds strange, but the eigenvectors of my 2X2 matrix is rather different if I get it calculated in a loop over many other similar matrices: for instance: matrix: [[ 0.6000+0.j -1.97537668-0.09386068j] [-1.97537668+0.09386068j -0.6000+0.j]]

Hi, I plan to migrate core classes of an application from Python to C++ using SWIG, while still the user interface being Python. I also plan to further use NumPy's ndarrays. The application's core classes will create the ndarrays and make calculations. The user interface (Python) finally

Holger, SWIG can read C or C++ header files and use them to generate wrapper interfaces for a long list of scripting languages. It sounds to me like you want to go the other direction -- i.e. you have a code prototyped in python and you want to convert core kernels to C++, perhaps to improve
