I am calling the EIGS function to get the smallest eigenvalue and eigenvector of a symmetric real matrix A of size 5120 x 5120 as follows:
[V,ev] = eigs(A,1,'sa');
I am verifying the results by comparing the following two values
evnAiV = norm(Ai*V)
The two values above are significantly different for large matrices. The matrix A used above is ill-conditioned and that is what might be causing this discrepancy. No error or warning messages are thrown.
