Latent Roots and Latent Vectors
J. M. Varah, Sven J. Hammarling · Mathematics of Computation · 1971
This book is concerned with the latent roots and latent vectors of matrices whose elements are real. Its main purpose is to discuss some of the methods available for finding latent roots and vectors. The methods presented include not only those that are the most useful in practice, but some chosen because of the interesting ideas they present and the help they give to a general understanding of the latent root and vector problem. I have attempted throughout to introduce the material in as uncomplicated a manner as possible.
