Abstract
In this paper we derive the general expression of the characteristic polynomial and eigenvectors for pentadiagonal matrices. A new efficient computational algorithm to find the determinant of a general pentadiagonal matrix is presented. The algorithm is suited for implementation using computer algebra systems such as MAPLE, MATHEMATICA, MATLAB and MACSYMA.
