MATLAB: Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors of Symbolic Matrix

Question

I have a symbolic matrix of which I want to get Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors. I want Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors in symbolic form.

syms E t 
H = [E -t -t -t -t 0 0 0 0;-t E 0 0 0 -t -t 0 0;-t 0 E 0 0 0 0 -t -t;-t 0 0 E 0 -t 0 -t 0; -t 0 0 0 E 0 -t 0 -t; 0 -t 0 -t 0 E 0 0 0; 0 -t 0 0 -t 0 E 0 0; 0 0 -t -t 0 0 0 E 0; 0 0 -t 0 -t 0 0 0 E];
eig(H);

Answer 1

syms E t 
H = [E -t -t -t -t 0 0 0 0;-t E 0 0 0 -t -t 0 0;-t 0 E 0 0 0 0 -t -t;...
    -t 0 0 E 0 -t 0 -t 0; -t 0 0 0 E 0 -t 0 -t; 0 -t 0 -t 0 E 0 0 0;...
    0 -t 0 0 -t 0 E 0 0; 0 0 -t -t 0 0 0 E 0; 0 0 -t 0 -t 0 0 0 E];
[V,D] = eig(H)

gives:

V =

See documentation for eig also in its symbolic version.
