r to check that the input matrix contains only finite numbers. Disabling may give a performance gain, but may result in problems (crashes, non-termination) if the inputs do contain infinities or NaNs. tol : float The absolute tolerance to which each eigenvalue is required (only used when 'stebz' is the `lapack_driver`). An eigenvalue (or cluster) is considered to have converged if it lies in an interval of this width. If <= 0. (default), the value ``eps*|a|`` is used where eps is the machine precision, and ``|a|`` is the 1-norm of the matrix ``a``. lapack_driver : str LAPACK function to use, can be 'auto', 'stemr', 'stebz', 'sterf', or 'stev'. When 'auto' (default), it will use 'stemr' if ``select='a'`` and 'stebz' otherwise. When 'stebz' is used to find the eigenvalues and ``eigvals_only=False``, then a second LAPACK call (to ``?STEIN``) is used to find the corresponding eigenvectors. 'sterf' can only be used when ``eigvals_only=True`` and ``select='a'``. 'stev' can only be used when ``select='a'``. Returns ------- w : (M,) ndarray The eigenvalues, in ascending order, each repeated according to its multiplicity. v : (M, M) ndarray The normalized eigenvector corresponding to the eigenvalue ``w[i]`` is the column ``v[:,i]``. Raises ------ LinAlgError If eigenvalue computation does not converge. See Also -------- eigvalsh_tridiagonal : eigenvalues of symmetric/Hermitian tridiagonal matrices eig : eigenvalues and right eigenvectors for non-symmetric arrays eigh : eigenvalues and right eigenvectors for symmetric/Hermitian arrays eig_banded : eigenvalues and right eigenvectors for symmetric/Hermitian band matrices Notes ----- This function makes use of LAPACK ``S/DSTEMR`` routines. Examples -------- >>> import numpy as np >>> from scipy.linalg import eigh_tridiagonal >>> d = 3*np.ones(4) >>> e = -1*np.ones(3) >>> w, v = eigh_tridiagonal(d, e) >>> A = np.diag(d) + np.diag(e, k=1) + np.diag(e, k=-1) >>> np.allclose(A @ v - v @ np.diag(w), np.zeros((4, 4))) True rc
