Aparently you don't know how to use SageMath's search tools. So I'll start by that. 1. There is a searchable documentation for SageMath. It is very easy to find examples for eigen value computations there. 2. During a SageMath session, the command search_def("eigen") will show you all methods whose name contains the string "eigen". 3. As often in Python, commands are in fact methods of objects. Hence, if you have a matrix M and guess that it has a method called "eigenvalues", then you should just start to type M.eigen and then hit the <tab> key. For instance: sage: M = random_matrix(QQ,5) sage: M [ 1/2 -2 0 0 1/2] [ 1 -2 -1 0 -1] [ -1 -1 0 -2 -1] [ 2 0 1 -1/2 -2] [ 2 2 0 1 0] Now start to type M.eig and hit the tab key. You'll see 7 possible completions, one of them is "eigenvalues". So, let's try this, but first consult the doc, by (as usual in Python) putting a question mark after the method: sage: M.eigenvalues? of course you need to hit the <return> key. You'll see a description of the method and several examples. And, finally, the result: sage: M.eigenvalues() [0.9652779576432229?, -1.749813720203932? - 2.054034745529191?*I, -1.749813720203932? + 2.054034745529191?*I, 0.2671747413823206? - 1.769195418760009?*I, 0.2671747413823206? + 1.769195418760009?*I] By the way, if you wonder about the question mark that is displayes after a few decimal digits: The eigenvalues belong the the algebraic field, i.e. are defined in terms of solutions of algebraic equations. Since an exact solution typically is not available, the "?" indicates that it is an approximation. If you need more digits, you can convert the eigenvalues into a floating point number with a large mantissa: sage: ev = M.eigenvalues()[0] sage: ev 0.9652779576432229? sage: ev.numerical_approx(digits=30) 0.965277957643222989774440303246 Regards, Simon -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
