Although there are many algorithms and theories, it is still challenging to solve the leading eigenvalue problem of extreme high dimension. Full configuration interaction (FCI) problem in quantum chemistry is such a problem. This thesis tries to understand some existing algorithms of FCI problem and propose new efficient algorithms for the high-dimensional eigenvalue problem. In more details, we first es- tablish a general framework of inexact power iteration and establish the convergence theorem of full configuration interaction quantum Monte Carlo (FCIQMC) and fast randomized iteration (FRI). Second, we reformulate the leading eigenvalue problem as an optimization problem, then compare the show the convergence of several coor- dinate descent methods (CDM) to solve the leading eigenvalue problem. Third, we propose a new efficient algorithm named Coordinate descent FCI (CDFCI) based on coordinate descent methods to solve the FCI problem, which produces some state-of- the-art results.

Sorensen 1 Department of Computational and Applied Mathematics Rice University Houston, TX 77251 sorensen@rice, edu ABSTRACT Eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of linear operators are important to many areas of ap- plied mathematics. The ability to approximate these quantities numerically is becoming increasingly important in a wide variety of applications. This increasing demand has fu- eled interest in the development of new methods and software for the numerical solution of large-scale algebraic eigenvalue problems. In turn, the existence of these new methods and software, along with the dramatically increased computational capabilities now avail- able, has enabled the solution of problems that would not even have been posed five or ten years ago. Until very recently, software for large-scale nonsymmetric problems was virtually non-existent. Fortunately, the situation is improving rapidly. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of the numerical solution of large- scale algebraic eigenvalue problems. The focus will be on a class of methods called Krylov subspace projection methods. The well-known Lanczos method is the premier member of this class.

This class meets this coming Friday, September 4, but not on Labor Day, which is Monday, September 7. 1.2 Introduction I have three objectives in this lecture: to tell you what the course is about, to help you decide if this course is right for you, and to tell you how the course will work. As the title suggests, this course is about the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices associated with graphs, and their applications. I will never forget my amazement at learning that combinatorial properties of graphs could be revealed by an examination of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of their associated matrices.

  • Accelerated Stochastic Power Iteration
    Accelerated Stochastic Power Iteration CHRISTOPHER DE SAy BRYAN HEy IOANNIS MITLIAGKASy CHRISTOPHER RE´ y PENG XU∗ yDepartment of Computer Science, Stanford University ∗Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering, Stanford University cdesa,bryanhe,[email protected], [email protected], [email protected] July 11, 2017 Abstract Principal component analysis (PCA) is one of the most powerful tools in machine learning. The simplest method for PCA, the power iteration, requires O(1=∆) full-data passes to recover the principal component of a matrix withp eigen-gap ∆. Lanczos, a significantly more complex method, achieves an accelerated rate of O(1= ∆) passes. Modern applications, however, motivate methods that only ingest a subset of available data, known as the stochastic setting. In the online stochastic setting, simple 2 2 algorithms like Oja’s iteration achieve the optimal sample complexity O(σ =p∆ ). Unfortunately, they are fully sequential, and also require O(σ2=∆2) iterations, far from the O(1= ∆) rate of Lanczos. We propose a simple variant of the power iteration with an added momentum term, that achieves both the optimal sample and iteration complexity.p In the full-pass setting, standard analysis shows that momentum achieves the accelerated rate, O(1= ∆). We demonstrate empirically that naively applying momentum to a stochastic method, does not result in acceleration. We perform a novel, tight variance analysis that reveals the “breaking-point variance” beyond which this acceleration does not occur. By combining this insight with modern variance reduction techniques, we construct stochastic PCAp algorithms, for the online and offline setting, that achieve an accelerated iteration complexity O(1= ∆).

    A NEW GENERALIZED FIELD OF VALUES RICARDO REIS DA SILVA∗ Abstract. Given a right eigenvector x and a left eigenvector y associated with the same eigen- value of a matrix A, there is a Hermitian positive definite matrix H for which y = Hx. The matrix H defines an inner product and consequently also a field of values. The new generalized field of values is always the convex hull of the eigenvalues of A. Moreover, it is equal to the standard field of values when A is normal and is a particular case of the field of values associated with non-standard inner products proposed by Givens. As a consequence, in the same way as with Hermitian matrices, the eigenvalues of non-Hermitian matrices with real spectrum can be characterized in terms of extrema of a corresponding generalized Rayleigh Quotient. Key words. field of values, numerical range, Rayleigh quotient AMS subject classifications. 15A60, 15A18, 15A42 1. Introduction. We propose a new generalized field of values which brings all the properties of the standard field of values to non-Hermitian matrices. For a matrix A ∈ Cn×n the (classical) field of values or numerical range of A is the set of complex numbers F (A) ≡{x∗Ax : x ∈ Cn, x∗x =1}. (1.1) Alternatively, the field of values of a matrix A ∈ Cn×n can be described as the region in the complex plane defined by the range of the Rayleigh Quotient x∗Ax ρ(x, A) ≡ , ∀x 6=0. (1.2) x∗x For Hermitian matrices, field of values and Rayleigh Quotient exhibit very agreeable properties: F (A) is a subset of the real line and the extrema of F (A) coincide with the extrema of the spectrum, σ(A), of A.

  • Spectral Graph Theory: Applications of Courant-Fischer∗
    Spectral graph theory: Applications of Courant-Fischer∗ Steve Butler September 2006 Abstract In this second talk we will introduce the Rayleigh quotient and the Courant- Fischer Theorem and give some applications for the normalized Laplacian. Our applications will include structural characterizations of the graph, interlacing results for addition or removal of subgraphs, and interlacing for weak coverings. We also will introduce the idea of “weighted graphs”. 1 Introduction In the first talk we introduced the three common matrices that are used in spectral graph theory, namely the adjacency matrix, the combinatorial Laplacian and the normalized Laplacian. In this talk and the next we will focus on the normalized Laplacian. This is a reflection of the bias of the author having worked closely with Fan Chung who popularized the normalized Laplacian. The adjacency matrix and the combinatorial Laplacian are also very interesting to study in their own right and are useful for giving structural information about a graph. However, in many “practical” applications it tends to be the spectrum of the normalized Laplacian which is most useful. In this talk we will introduce the Rayleigh quotient which is closely linked to the Courant-Fischer Theorem and give some results. We give some structural results (such as showing that if a graph is bipartite then the spectrum is symmetric around 1) as well as some interlacing and weak covering results. But first, we will start by listing some common spectra. ∗Second of three talks given at the Center for Combinatorics, Nankai University, Tianjin 1 Some common spectra When studying spectral graph theory it is good to have a few basic examples to start with and be familiar with their spectrums.

    ITERATIVE METHODS FOR COMPUTING EIGENVALUES AND EIGENVECTORS MAYSUM PANJU Abstract. We examine some numerical iterative methods for computing the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of real matrices. The five methods examined here range from the simple power iteration method to the more complicated QR iteration method. The derivations, procedure, and advantages of each method are briefly discussed. 1. Introduction Eigenvalues and eigenvectors play an important part in the applications of linear algebra. The naive method of finding the eigenvalues of a matrix involves finding the roots of the characteristic polynomial of the matrix. In industrial sized matrices, however, this method is not feasible, and the eigenvalues must be obtained by other means. Fortunately, there exist several other techniques for finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix, some of which fall under the realm of iterative methods. These methods work by repeatedly refining approximations to the eigenvectors or eigenvalues, and can be terminated whenever the approximations reach a suitable degree of accuracy. Iterative methods form the basis of much of modern day eigenvalue computation. In this paper, we outline five such iterative methods, and summarize their derivations, procedures, and advantages. The methods to be examined are the power iteration method, the shifted inverse iteration method, the Rayleigh quotient method, the simultaneous iteration method, and the QR method. This paper is meant to be a survey over existing algorithms for the eigenvalue computation problem. Section 2 of this paper provides a brief review of some of the linear algebra background required to understand the concepts that are discussed. In section 3, the iterative methods are each presented, in order of complexity, and are studied in brief detail.

  • Lecture 12 — February 26 and 28 12.1 Introduction
    EE 381V: Large Scale Learning Spring 2013 Lecture 12 | February 26 and 28 Lecturer: Caramanis & Sanghavi Scribe: Karthikeyan Shanmugam and Natalia Arzeno 12.1 Introduction In this lecture, we focus on algorithms that compute the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a real symmetric matrix. Particularly, we are interested in finding the largest and smallest eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenvectors. We study two methods: Power method and the Lanczos iteration. The first involves multiplying the symmetric matrix by a randomly chosen vector, and iteratively normalizing and multiplying the matrix by the normalized vector from the previous step. The convergence is geometric, i.e. the `1 distance between the true and the computed largest eigenvalue at the end of every step falls geometrically in the number of iterations and the rate depends on the ratio between the second largest and the largest eigenvalue. Some generalizations of the power method to compute the largest k eigenvalues and the eigenvectors will be discussed. The second method (Lanczos iteration) terminates in n iterations where each iteration in- volves estimating the largest (smallest) eigenvalue by maximizing (minimizing) the Rayleigh coefficient over vectors drawn from a suitable subspace. At each iteration, the dimension of the subspace involved in the optimization increases by 1. The sequence of subspaces used are Krylov subspaces associated with a random initial vector. We study the relation between Krylov subspaces and tri-diagonalization of a real symmetric matrix. Using this connection, we show that an estimate of the extreme eigenvalues can be computed at each iteration which involves eigen-decomposition of a tri-diagonal matrix.

    CSE 521: Design and Analysis of Algorithms I Spring 2016 Lecture 8: Eigenvalues, Eigenvectors and Spectral Theorem Lecturer: Shayan Oveis Gharan April 20th Scribe: Sudipto Mukherjee Disclaimer: These notes have not been subjected to the usual scrutiny reserved for formal publications. 8.1 Introduction Let M 2 Rn×n be a symmetric matrix. We say λ is an eigenvalue of M with eigenvector v, if Mv = λv: Theorem 8.1. If M is symmetric, then all its eigenvalues are real. Proof. Suppose Mv = λv: We want to show that λ has imaginary value 0. For a complex number x = a + ib, the conjugate of x, is defined as follows: x∗ = a − ib. So, all we need to show is that λ = λ∗. The conjugate of a vector is the conjugate of all of its coordinate. Taking the conjugate transpose of both sides of the above equality, we have v∗M = λ∗v∗; (8.1) where we used that M T = M. So, on one hand, v∗Mv = v∗(Mv) = v∗(λv) = λ(v∗v): and on the other hand, by (8.1) v∗Mv = λ∗v∗v: So, we must have λ = λ∗. 8.2 Characteristic Polynomial If M does not have 0 as one of its eigenvalues, then det(M) 6= 0. An equivalent statement is that, if M all columns of M are linearly independent, then det(M) 6= 0. If λ is an eigenvalue of M, then Mv = λv, so (M − λI)v = 0. In other words, M − λI has a zero eigenvalue and det(M − λI) = 0.
