I know I can use eig() to find all eigenvalues as well as eigenvectors and then use max/min to find the max/min eigenvalues. However, that method is not efficient given a big matrix.
I heard of Lanczos algorithm that allows to find extreme eigenvalues.
I wonder if there is any function in matlab that can find max/min eigenvalues quickly?
BTW, I consider symmetric positive semi-definite matrices if that makes problem any easier.
Thanks,

Thank you, Andrei. I wonder if it's the fastest function for calculating min/max eigenvalues available on matlab? It's quite slow when the size of matrix is more than 1,000 by 1,000, though.
