off line I looked at the matlab page and the wikipedia page. Wikipedia says there are two different things with the gsvd name.
So I guess we need to see a tiny example of your starting matrix and the decomposition that the matlab function you call returns to you. I guess you will have to send the "reproducible example" to the list. Rich On Tue, May 5, 2015 at 12:14 AM, Roy Mendelssohn - NOAA Federal <roy.mendelss...@noaa.gov> wrote: > Thanks.
