My idea is (if I have time) to write an eigs-like function in python that will only perform a subset of what Matlab's eigs does for. It will, for example, compute a certain number of eigenvalues and eigenvectors for a real, sparse, symmetric matrix (the case I'm interested in)
AFAIK, pysparse (in the sandbox) includes a module that implements a Jacobi-Davidson eigenvalue solver for the symmetric, generalised matrix eigenvalue problem (JDSYM). Did someone test pysparse ?
I did try pysparse a few years ago (I think right before sparse stuff came
into scipy). I think there is probably an old post asking the list about sparse stuff and I think Travis had just written it and told me about it... can't remember. Can JDSYM just return the k lowest eigenvalues/eigenvectors?

Yes. See http://people.web.psi.ch/geus/pyfemax/pysparse_examples.html for details. Nils
