jordan
Jordan normal form (Jordan canonical form)
Description
J = jordan(A)
computes the Jordan normal form of the matrix
A
. Because the Jordan form of a numeric matrix is sensitive
to numerical errors, prefer converting numeric input to exact symbolic form.
[V,J] = jordan(A)
computes the Jordan form
J
and the similarity transform V
. The
matrix V
contains the generalized eigenvectors of
A
as columns, such that V\A*V = J
.
