Different Eigenvalues on Different Machines

$

Hello, 

I am computing eigenvalues on different machines. With the exact same binary and the same shared libraries, I obtain different eigenvalues for near zero entries when I run on different machines. Is this expected behavior?

On a 64 core node:

   -2.7756e-17

   4.2301e-46

   3.4694e-18

   1.7984e-02

   9.4446e-01

On a 32 core node:

   1.8526e-47

   3.4694e-18

   2.7756e-17

   1.7984e-02

   9.4446e-01

I suspect that MKL is auto-threading with different numbers of cores and this is causing the floating point operations to execute in different orders, but would like to make sure.
