The document describes the Jacobi method for determining eigenvalues of a real symmetric matrix. It provides the algorithm which takes a matrix A, applies an orthogonal similarity transformation to iteratively reduce off-diagonal elements until a tolerance is reached, obtaining the eigenvalues of the original matrix.

Jacobi Method for Determination of Eigenvalues
Algorithm Jacobi (A, V, N, k, eps)
Algorithm to find eigenvalues of a real symmetric matrix A using Jacobi method. If tolerance eps , this algorithm overwrites A = VT AV where V is orthogonal and off (VT AV ) tol A F . N N The stopping criteria is based on Frobenius norm A F = aij2 i =1 j =1
Step (1) k = 0, V = I, eps = tol A F
(2) While off (A) eps , k = k + 1
(3) Chose indices p and q with 1 p q N so that a pq = max aij
i j
(4) If A( p, q) 0 then
(5) = (A(q, q) − A( p, p)) /(2A( p, q))
(6) ( t = sgn( ) / + 1 + 2 ) (7) c = 1/ 1 + t 2
