RealBlockDiagonalForm
is an option for SchurDecomposition and related functions which specifies whether 2×2 blocks of real values should be used on matrix diagonals in place of complex values.
Details
- With RealBlockDiagonalForm->False, complex values can be generated on matrix diagonals from SchurDecomposition and related functions.
- With the default setting RealBlockDiagonalForm->True, complex values are replaced by 2×2 blocks of real values.
Examples
Basic Examples (1)
m is a matrix with two real and two complex eigenvalues:
With RealBlockDiagonalForm->False, the result is complex upper triangular:
With RealBlockDiagonalForm->True, there are real 2×2 blocks along the diagonal:
