USCHUR

Purpose:

Computes the Unitary Schur form of a square matrix.

Syntax:

USCHUR(a)

a

-

A square matrix.

Returns:

A matrix.

Example:

a = {{1, 3, 4},

     {5, 6, 7}, 

     {8, 9, 12}} 

 

schur(a) == {{19.964, 4.353, -2.2431},

             { 0.0,  -1.4739, 0.1399}, 

             { 0.0,   0.0,    0.50976}} 

 

uschur(a) == {{0.25387,  0.96612,  0.046551},

              {0.50456, -0.17334, -0.84579}, 

              {0.82521, -0.19124,  0.53147}} 

 

matrix = (uschur(a) *^ schur(a)) *^ transpose(uschur(a))

Remarks:

transpose(uschur(a)) *^ uschur(a)

returns an identity matrix which is the same size as the input matrix.
