I have a large real symetric banded matrix (1000x1000) that I want
to find the first 30 eigenvectors and eigenvalues for. This matrix
is singular with the first 6 eigenvalues being 0.

Does anyone know of some fast method that will allow me to
specify a set number of eigenvalues to extract. I have seen the
Inverse Power method but how do you find the inverse of a singular
matrix? If anyone knows of books, papers or code that might help
could you please post the information to me.

Thanks in Advance
