Quadratic Eigenvalue Problem

Quadratic Eigenvalue Problem

In mathematics, the quadratic eigenvalue problem (QEP), is to find scalar eigenvalues, left eigenvectors and right eigenvectors such that

where, with matrix coefficients and we require that, (so that we have a nonzero leading coefficient). There are eigenvalues that may be infinite or finite, and possibly zero. This is a special case of a nonlinear eigenproblem. is also known as a quadratic matrix polynomial.
