Unable to evaluate Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors for a matrix (2)












2












$begingroup$


I have posted a similar question last year pertaining to this issue. Here's a link to my post together with the solution given: Unable to evaluate Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors for a matrix



I have tried the methods in my previous posts but to no avail. Here's the problem: I have the following 3x3 matrix



m = {{-γ/2, -I*g1, -I*Exp[-I*α]*g3}, {-I*g1, -(κ1)/2, -I*g2}, {-I*Exp[I*α]*g3, -I*g2, -(κ2)/2]}}


where I represents the complex identity Sqrt[-1]. I wish to find the eigenvectors for the matrix for two different alpha values. For α = π/2, simply doing (after manually replacing α with π/2)



Eigenvectors[m, Cubics->True]


Returns the appropriate (albeit long) eigenvectors. Now however, if I change my α to α = π and run



 Eigenvectors[m, Cubics->True]


I am returned with



...Eigenvectors: Unable to find all eigenvectors


Which is the similar issue encountered in the link that I provided above a while ago. I proceed to perform the same fix detailed in that question. Namely



Simplify[Eigenvectors[mchiral /. Complex[0, -1] -> mi, Cubics -> True] /. mi -> -I];


and I am still returned with the same error. Namely



...Eigenvectors: Unable to find all eigenvectors


What is the problem here?

    There is no problem: imgur.com/a/ALdYCou Except that you have some brackets misplaced in the definition of m that I fixed – but check if the form is the desired one.

I have o clue why this did not work. However, this old-fashioned method seems to work



m = {
{-γ/2, -I g1, -I Exp[-I α] g3},
{-I g1, -(κ1)/2, -I g2},
{-I Exp[I α] g3, -I g2, -(κ2)/2}
};

a = m /. α -> π;
λ = Eigenvalues[a] // ToRadicals;
U = Flatten[NullSpace[a - # IdentityMatrix[3]] & /@ λ, 1];

Simplify[a.Transpose[U] - Transpose[U].DiagonalMatrix[λ]]
