A structured staircase algorithm for skew-symmetric/symmetric pencils
Please always quote using this URN:urn:nbn:de:0296-matheon-2473
- We present structure preserving algorithms for the numerical com- putation of structured staircase forms of skew-symmetric/symmetric matrix pencils along with the Kronecker indices of the associated skew- symmetric/symmetric Kronecker-like canonical form. These methods allow deflation of the singular structure and deflation of infinite eigenvalues with index greater than one. Two algorithms are proposed: one for general skew-symmetric/symmetric pencils and one for pencils in 0 which the skew-symmetric matrix is a direct sum of 0 and J = −I I . 0 We show how to use the structured staircase form to solve boundary value problems arising in control applications and present numerical examples.
