Problem with initialization

I think you may have something incorrectly initialized, since the output varies slightly between runs.

This is because of the underlying eigensolver used, Arpack. The results are not deterministic as a initial random vector is used inside Arpack's Fortran code. If you want to have deterministic results try passing an initial point with the keyword argument v0
(dimension: 2n) which is passed to ARPACK.
I will update the documentation to emphasise this and to make the use of warm-starting more clear.

Ah okay, thanks for clarifying!
