$\begingroup$ It is easier when the matrix is also Toeplitz. $\endgroup$– Rodrigo de AzevedoCommented Sep 27, 2017 at 6:43

Yes. For general tridiagonal matrices, see The Numerical Recipes, Chapter 11, or Golub-Van Loan. For symmetric tridiagonal matrices, you can do better, see Coakley/Rochlin's paper.

$\begingroup$ Is there something about nonsymmetric tridiagonal matrices in Golub-Van Loan? I thought not. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 2, 2018 at 11:26
