Abstract
The homotopy method is used to find all eigenpairs of symmetric matrices. A special homotopy is constructed for Jacobi matrices. It is shown that there are exactly n distinct smooth curves connecting trivial solutions to desired eigenpairs. These curves are solutions of a certain ordinary differential equation with different initial values. Hence, they can be followed numerically. Incorporated with sparse matrix techniques, this method might be used to solve eigenvalue problems for large scale matrices.
