In this work we propose a general framework for the structured perturbation
analysis of several classes of structured matrix polynomials in homogeneous
form, including complex symmetric, skew-symmetric, even and odd matrix polynomials. We introduce structured backward errors for approximate eigenvalues and eigenvectors and we construct minimal structured perturbations such that an approximate eigenpair is an exact eigenpair of an appropriately perturbed matrix polynomial. This work extends previous work for the non-homogeneous case (we include infinite eigenvalues) and we show that the structured backward errors improve the known unstructured backward errors.
We propose a generalization of the Structured Doubling Algorithm (SDA) to compute invariant subspaces
of structured matrix pencils
that arise in the context of solving linear quadratic optimal control problems.
The new algorithm is
designed to attain better accuracy when the classical Riccati equation approach for the solution of the optimal control problem is not well suited because
the stable and unstable invariant subspaces are not well separated (due to eigenvalues near or on the imaginary
axis) or in the case when the Riccati solution does not exist at all. We analyze the convergence
of the method and compare the new method with the classical SDA algorithm as well as some recent structured QR-methods.
Deflated and augmented Krylov subspace methods: Basic Facts and a Breakdown-free deflated MINRES
(2011)
In this paper we consider deflation and augmentation techniques for accelerating
the convergence of Krylov subspace methods for the solution of nonsingular linear
algebraic systems. The two techniques are conceptually different from
preconditioning. Deflation "removes" certain parts from the operator, while
augmentation adds a subspace to the Krylov subspace. Both approaches have been
used in a variety of methods and settings. For Krylov subspace methods that
satisfy a (Petrov-) Galerkin condition we show that augmentation can in general
be achieved implicitly by projecting the residuals appropriately and correcting
the approximate solutions in a final step. In this context, we analyze known
methods to deflate CG, GMRes and MinRes. Our analysis reveals that the recently
proposed RMinRes method can break down. We show how such breakdowns can be
avoided by choosing a special initial guess, and we derive a breakdown-free
deflated MinRes method. In numerical experiments we study the properties of
different variants of MinRes analyzed in this paper.
The authors propose a recycling MINRES scheme for a solution of subsequent self-adjoint linear systems as appearing, for example, in the Newton process for solving nonlinear equations. Ritz vectors are automatically extracted from one MINRES run and then used for self-adjoint deflation in the next. The method is designed to work with a preconditioner and arbitrary inner products. Numerical experiments with nonlinear Schrödinger equations indicate a substantial decrease in computation time when recycling is used.
