Description

@JoseMath and @ltrbuse are interested in having a method to find generalized eigen- values/vectors.

Either wait until `eigen` can be used in M2 or wrap `lapack` routines:
[dggev](http://www.netlib.org/lapack/explore-3.1.1-html/dggev.f.html)
[zggev](http://www.netlib.org/lapack/explore-3.1.1-html/zggev.f.html)

Research direction

Start by examining the existing `eigen` method in Macaulay2 and the linked LAPACK `dggev` and `zggev` routines. Determine whether the implementation should wait for `eigen` support in M2 or wrap LAPACK directly; done means a supported method for generalized eigenvalues and eigenvectors with appropriate project tests.
