A Lie algebraic generalization of the classical and the Sort-Jacobi algorithm for diagonalizing a symmetric matrix has been proposed. The coordinate free setting provides new insights in the nature of Jacobi-type methods and allows a unified treatment of several structured eigenvalue and singular value problems, including so far unstudied normal form problems. Local quadratic convergence has been shown for both types of Jacobi methods with a fully comprehension of the regular and irregular case. New sweep methods have been introduced that generalize the special cyclic sweep for symmetric matrices and ensure local quadratic convergence also for irregular elements. The new sweep methods yield faster convergence behavior than the previously known cyclic schemes.
