Inconsistent EigenVectors on running same problem multiple times

Hi All,
In my FEM code, I run EIG or EIGS command for getting eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Strangely, it is returning different eigenvectors that are inconsistent each time for the same code and same inputs.
Any help will be appreciated.
Best regards,

If I recall, a few weeks ago someone mentioned that there is a random initialization going on (might have been by at the qr level.) Try setting the random seed, trying, setting it again, see if you get the same results.

No, as has been said, you can fix the seed of RNG to the same number before each time you call eigs, so that the 'random' number it uses is always the same and thus, always returns the same result.
As per Walter's later comment:
rng(12345); %use any seed you want
[A1,B1] = eigs(KM,20,'sm');
rng(12345); %as long as it's always the same
[A2,B2] = eigs(KM,20,'sm');

Or set the v0 option in your EIGS call to fix the starting vector. By default, it is randomly generated.
