@cindex Hessenberg decomposition
Compute the Hessenberg decomposition of the matrix @var{A}.
 
The Hessenberg decomposition is
@tex
$$
A = PHP^T
$$
where $P$ is a square unitary matrix ($P^TP = I$), and $H$
is upper Hessenberg ($H_{i,j} = 0, \forall i > j+1$).
@end tex
@ifnottex
@code{@var{P} * @var{H} * @var{P}' = @var{A}} where @var{P} is a square
unitary matrix (@code{@var{P}' * @var{P} = I}, using complex-conjugate
transposition) and @var{H} is upper Hessenberg
(@code{@var{H}(i, j) = 0 forall i > j+1)}.
@end ifnottex
 
The Hessenberg decomposition is usually used as the first step in an
eigenvalue computation, but has other applications as well
(see @nospell{Golub, Nash, and Van Loan},
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 1979).
