H = H3.change_ring(ZZ) should work. It's not surprising that eigenvalues are so slow over the symbolic ring, though obviously it could be improved in the case that the entries are actually numbers of some kind. David On Fri, Mar 15, 2013 at 1:34 AM, Jan Groenewald wrote: > Hi > > A computation

[sage-devel] Slow eigenvalues

2013-03-15 Thread Jan Groenewald
Hi A computation with matrices reached: type(H3) # gives H3.eigenvalues() # never finishes, or is really slow, at least several hours However, if I reassign the same values of the matrix to a new matrix, it finishes in a fraction of a second: H=matrix([(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,
