Syntax

Matrices.eigenValueMatrix(eigenvalues);

Description

The function call returns a block diagonal matrix J from the two-column matrix eigenvalues (computed by function Matrices.eigenValues). Matrix eigenvalues must have the real part of the eigenvalues in the first column and the imaginary part in the second column. If an eigenvalue i has a vanishing imaginary part, then J[i,i] = eigenvalues[i,1], i.e., the diagonal element of J is the real eigenvalue. Otherwise, eigenvalue i and conjugate complex eigenvalue i+1 are used to construct a 2 by 2 diagonal block of J:

J[i  , i]   := eigenvalues[i,1];
J[i  , i+1] := eigenvalues[i,2];
J[i+1, i]   := eigenvalues[i+1,2];
J[i+1, i+1] := eigenvalues[i+1,1];
