I have posted a similar question last year pertaining to this issue. Here's a link to my post together with the solution given: Unable to evaluate Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors for a matrix

I have tried the methods in my previous posts but to no avail. Here's the problem: I have the following 3x3 matrix

m = -γ/2, -I*g1, -I*Exp[-I*α]*g3, -I*g1, -(κ1)/2, -I*g2, -I*Exp[I*α]*g3, -I*g2, -(κ2)/2]

where I represents the complex identity Sqrt[-1]. I wish to find the eigenvectors for the matrix for two different alpha values. For α = π/2, simply doing (after manually replacing α with π/2)

Eigenvectors[m, Cubics->True]

Returns the appropriate (albeit long) eigenvectors. Now however, if I change my α to α = π and run

 Eigenvectors[m, Cubics->True]

I am returned with

...Eigenvectors: Unable to find all eigenvectors

Which is the similar issue encountered in the link that I provided above a while ago. I proceed to perform the same fix detailed in that question. Namely

Simplify[Eigenvectors[mchiral /. Complex[0, -1] -> mi, Cubics -> True] /. mi -> -I];

and I am still returned with the same error. Namely

...Eigenvectors: Unable to find all eigenvectors

What is the problem here?

  There is no problem: imgur.com/a/ALdYCou Except that you have some brackets misplaced in the definition of m that I fixed – but check if the form is the desired one.

I have o clue why this did not work. However, this old-fashioned method seems to work

m = 
 -γ/2, -I g1, -I Exp[-I α] g3, 
 -I g1, -(κ1)/2, -I g2, 
 -I Exp[I α] g3, -I g2, -(κ2)/2
 ;

a = m /. α -> π;
λ = Eigenvalues[a] // ToRadicals;
U = Flatten[NullSpace[a - # IdentityMatrix[3]] & /@ λ, 1];

Simplify[a.Transpose[U] - Transpose[U].DiagonalMatrix[λ]]

  The eigenvalues seems to be fine. It's long but it prints. The eigenvectors on the other hand, are still unobtainable. I'm starting to think if this is alpha dependent since it works for pi/2 but not pi. But that's just silly and shouldn't happen
