Parameters

A

-

square Matrix; Matrix whose eigenvalues are required

options

-

(optional) parameters; for a complete list, see LinearAlgebra[Eigenvalues]

Description

• 

The Eigenvalues(A) command returns the eigenvalues of the square Matrix A, that is, the values t such that Determinant(A - t . Id(Dimension(A))) = 0.  The eigenvalues are returned in a (column) Vector.

  

Note that eigenvalues are in general complex numbers.
