Scilab Function

spec - eigenvalues of matrices and pencils

### Calling Sequence

  `evals=spec(A)`
  `[X,diagevals]=spec(A)`
  ``
  `evals=spec(A,E)`
  `[al,be]=spec(A,E)`
  `[al,be,Z]=spec(A,E)`
  `[al,be]=spec(A,E)`
  `[al,be,Q,Z]=spec(A,E)`
  ``

### Parameters

- `A` : real or complex square matrix
- `E` : real or complex square matrix with same dimensions as `A`
- `evals` : real or complex vector, the eigenvalues
- `diagevals` : real or complex diagonal matrix (eigenvalues along the diagonal)
- `al` : real or complex vector, al./be gives the eigenvalues
- `be` : real vector, al./be gives the eigenvalues
- `X` : real or complex invertible square matrix, matrix eigenvectors.
- `Q` : real or complex invertible square matrix, pencil left eigenvectors.
- `Z` : real or complex invertible square matrix, pencil right eigenvectors.

### Description

- spec(A) : `evals=spec(A)` returns in vector `evals` the eigenvalues of `A`.

`[evals,X] =spec(A)` returns in addition the eigenvectors `A` (if they exist). See also `bdiag`

- spec(A,B) : `evals=spec(A,E)` returns the spectrum of the matrix pencil s E - A, i.e. the roots of the polynomial matrix s E - A.

`[al,be] = spec(A,E)` returns the spectrum of the matrix pencil s E - A, i.e. the roots of the polynomial matrix s E - A. The eigenvalues are given by `al./be` and if `be(i) = 0` the ith eigenvalue is at infinity. (For `E = eye(A), al./be` is `spec(A)`).

`[al,be,Z] = spec(A,E)` returns in addition the matrix `Z` of generalized right eigenvectors of the pencil.

`[al,be,Q,Z] = spec(A,E)` returns in addition the matrix `Q` and `Z` of generalized left and right eigenvectors of the pencil.

### Examples

    // MATRIX EIGENVALUES
    A=diag([1,2,3]);X=rand(3,3);A=inv(X)*A*X;
    spec(A)
    //
    x=poly(0,'x');
    pol=det(x*eye()-A)
    roots(pol)
    //
    [S,X]=bdiag(A);
    clean(inv(X)*A*X)

    // PENCIL EIGENVALUES
    A=rand(3,3);
    [al,be,Z] = spec(A,eye(A));al./be
    clean(inv(Z)*A*Z)  //displaying the eigenvalues (generic matrix)
    A=A+%i*rand(A);E=rand(A);
    roots(det(%s*E-A))   //complex case
