Thanks for your reply and sorry for not giving an example. I am giving here a simple example of 6 X 6 matrix, although the actual matrix is 11 X 11 matrix. Suppose 6 X 6 matrix is the following: M = {{306.25, -306.25, 0, 0, 0, 0},{-102.083, 310.25, -204.167, 0, 0, 0}, {0, -122.5, 318.25, -183.75, 0, 0}, {0, 0, -131.25, 330.25, -175.,0}, {0, 0, 0, -136.111, 346.25, -170.139}, {0, 0, 0, 0, -139.205, 366.25}} {w, v} = Eigensystem[M]; (* "w" is the Eigenvalues and "v" Eigenvectors *) v[[6]].v[[5]] = -0.57199 v[[6]].v[[3]] = 0.327911 v[[6]].v[[1]] = -0.15311 It cleary shows that the vectors are not orthogonal. However, these vectors are normalized. You are correct that the matirx M has a pecuiliar shape and I must use some other subtle method to compute them. Do not know what method is most suitable. Do you have any idea how to solve that kind of matrix (M) and how to get an orthogonal vectors? Any help is welcome. Thanking you again. Tarun
