I'm confused about this, and hoping for some clarification ...
sage: M=matrix([[0, .707-.707*i],[.707+.707*i, 0]])
sage: M = M.change_ring(CDF)
sage: M
[ 0 0.707 - 0.707*I]
[0.707 + 0.707*I 0]
sage: M.eigenvectors_left()
([0.999848988598 + 5.55111512313e-17*I, -0.999848988598 -
5.55111512313e-17*I], [0.707106781187 0.5 + 0.5*I]
[0.707106781187 -0.5 - 0.5*I])
sage: M.eigenvectors_right()
([0.999848988598 + 5.55111512313e-17*I, -0.999848988598 -
5.55111512313e-17*I], [0.707106781187 0.707106781187]
[ 0.5 + 0.5*I -0.5 - 0.5*I])
I believe that eigenvectors_left() is giving me the answers that
I expected. But I don't understand the values returned by
eigenvectors_right().
I *thought* that eigenvectors_right() was the one I wanted to call in
order
to get "regular old eigenvectors" (as a mathematical novice such as
myself
would be expecting to see).
Thanks,
-Mike
