Is this a bug in eig?

4 次查看(过去 30 天)
This issue came up with the roots function (see roots_ on File Exchange), where eig was failing on the companion matrix. Following are two test cases; the first one works and the second one doesn't. (I reported this to tech support, but it's not listed in the official Matlab bug reports.)
a = [-1,-1,0;1,0,0;0,1,0];
a(1,3) = 10e-32;
[v,d] = eig(a);
disp(abs(a*v-v*d))

It's fine. You just need to disable balancing:
a = [-1,-1,0;1,0,0;0,1,0];
for e=[10e-32, 9e-32]
a(1,3) = e;
[v,d] = eig(a,'nobalance');
Discrepancy = abs(a*v-v*d)
end
Discrepancy = 3×3
1.0e+-15 * 0.3608 0.3608 0.0342 0.3554 0.3554 0.0220 0.2355 0.2355 0.2282
Discrepancy = 3×3
1.0e+-15 * 0.3608 0.3608 0.0342 0.3554 0.3554 0.0220 0.2355 0.2355 0.2282

Google I found this page where there is a paper discuss issue with banancing. Someone claims (last post) he has developped a correct balancing method in Lapack 3.5.0.

For my test case it doesn't work without balancing, but Matlab's balancing doesn't work. There is a discussion of matrix balancing in Numerical Recipes in C++.
