## Generic Eigendecomposition of a Matrix

### Description

Compute the set of eigenvalues and eigenvectors decomposition of a real rectangular matrix.

### Usage

    trlan.eigen(X, neig = min(m, n), opts = list(), lambda = NULL, U = NULL)

### Arguments

`X` | the matrix to be decomposed. This can be either normal matrix or 'external matrix' object (e.g. one, created via 'extmat' function).
`neig` | number of desired eigentriples
`opts` | different options for eigensolver. See 'Details' section for more information
`lambda` | set of already computed singular values (used for continuation of the decomposition).
`U` | matrix of already computed eigenvectors (used for continuation of the decomposition).

### Details

These routines provides an interface to state-of-art implementation of eigensolver. In particular, nu-TRLAN does the thick-restart Lanczos eigendecomposition of a matrix.

'opts' is a list of different options which can be passed to the routines. Note that by default more or less suitable values for these options are set by the routines automatically.

The options for nu-TRLAN are:

kmax

  integer, maximum number of iterations.

maxiter

  integer. maximum number of matrix-vector products.

tol

  numeric, tolerance level.

verbose

  integer, verboseness level.

### Value

The returned value is a list with components

`d` | a vector containing the eigenvalues of 'X'
`u` | a matrix whose columns contain the eigenvectors of 'X'
