Eigenvector calculation

I am trying to calculate the eigenvectors and eigenvalues for the following matrix (6,6) and I am getting complex eigenvector which I should not. I check the eigenvectors with maple and no complex eigenvector. Can anyone help me? ( complex numbers are not small. There on the same order or real ones)

You can see that the first 3 row almost a mirror image of last 3 (or vice versa). Actually it has to be to same, but due to around offs coming from calculation creates 10^-13 differences. If I make those changes and makes them excatly mirror images no complex eigenvectors (which is little odd)

and the matrix should always be 'Square' to get the eigean vectors.

When I run the eig command (see help here: eig) I don't get any complex eigenvectors. Maybe the problem is data entry?
Assuming your matrix is in a, then
[v,d] = eig(a)
v =
-0.7059 -0.6622 0.4830 0.3203 -0.0000 0.4644
0.0294 -0.1076 0.4654 -0.4804 0.5774 0.4425
0.0294 0.2235 0.2239 0.3203 -0.0000 -0.2974
0.0294 -0.2235 -0.2239 -0.4804 0.5774 -0.2974
0.0294 0.1076 -0.4654 0.3203 -0.0000 0.4425
-0.7059 0.6622 -0.4830 -0.4804 0.5774 0.4644
d =
-40.0000 0 0 0 0 0
0 -31.1332 0 0 0 0
0 0 -2.4668 0 0 0
0 0 0 0.0000 0 0
0 0 0 0 -0.0000 0
0 0 0 0 0 -9.6000

You might try free host servers, but as I have pointed out earlier, the smallest eigen values are 1e-17 of the largest, so any small perturbation of matrix elements could easily make smallest eigen value becomes complex. That's not a surprise to me. You might need to make some safeguard code against this issue.

Yes, you can attach a .mat file (look for the little "attachment button" when editing the post - like a paperclip).
For this small matrix, here's a way you can display it so that there are no differences:
for ii=1:size(A, 1)
s(ii) = string(sprintf('%.20e ', A(ii, :)));
end
disp("Acopy = [" + join(s, ";"+newline) + "]")
Run this code where you have the original matrix A, then use isequal(A, Acopy) to verify it matches exactly.
