The homotopy method is used to find all eigenpairs of a generalised symmetric eigenvalue problem Ax = λBx with positive definite B. The determination of n eigenpairs (x, λ) is reduced to curve tracing of n disjoint smooth curves in Rn × R × [0, 1]. The method might be attractive if A and B are sparse symmetric. In this paper it is shown that the method will work for almost all symmetric tridiagonal matrices A and B.
