  • (Hessenberg) Eigenvalue-Eigenmatrix Relations∗
    (HESSENBERG) EIGENVALUE-EIGENMATRIX RELATIONS∗ JENS-PETER M. ZEMKE† Abstract. Explicit relations between eigenvalues, eigenmatrix entries and matrix elements are derived. First, a general, theoretical result based on the Taylor expansion of the adjugate of zI − A on the one hand and explicit knowledge of the Jordan decomposition on the other hand is proven. This result forms the basis for several, more practical and enlightening results tailored to non-derogatory, diagonalizable and normal matrices, respectively. Finally, inherent properties of (upper) Hessenberg, resp. tridiagonal matrix structure are utilized to construct computable relations between eigenvalues, eigenvector components, eigenvalues of principal submatrices and products of lower diagonal elements. Key words. Algebraic eigenvalue problem, eigenvalue-eigenmatrix relations, Jordan normal form, adjugate, principal submatrices, Hessenberg matrices, eigenvector components AMS subject classifications. 15A18 (primary), 15A24, 15A15, 15A57 1. Introduction. Eigenvalues and eigenvectors are defined using the relations Av = vλ and V −1AV = J. (1.1) We speak of a partial eigenvalue problem, when for a given matrix A ∈ Cn×n we seek scalar λ ∈ C and a corresponding nonzero vector v ∈ Cn. The scalar λ is called the eigenvalue and the corresponding vector v is called the eigenvector. We speak of the full or algebraic eigenvalue problem, when for a given matrix A ∈ Cn×n we seek its Jordan normal form J ∈ Cn×n and a corresponding (not necessarily unique) eigenmatrix V ∈ Cn×n. Apart from these constitutional relations, for some classes of structured matrices several more intriguing relations between components of eigenvectors, matrix entries and eigenvalues are known. For example, consider the so-called Jacobi matrices.

THE BLOCK HESSENBERG PROCESS FOR MATRIX EQUATIONS∗ M. ADDAMy, M. HEYOUNIy, AND H. SADOKz Abstract. In the present paper, we first introduce a block variant of the Hessenberg process and discuss its properties. Then, we show how to apply the block Hessenberg process in order to solve linear systems with multiple right-hand sides. More precisely, we define the block CMRH method for solving linear systems that share the same coefficient matrix. We also show how to apply this process for solving discrete Sylvester matrix equations. Finally, numerical comparisons are provided in order to compare the proposed new algorithms with other existing methods. Key words.

In this work, we are first interested in solving s systems of linear equations with the same coefficient matrix and different right-hand sides of the form (1.1) A x(i) = y(i); 1 ≤ i ≤ s; where A is a large and sparse n × n real matrix, y(i) is a real column vector of length n, and s n. Such linear systems arise in numerous applications in computational science and engineering such as wave propagation phenomena, quantum chromodynamics, and dynamics of structures [5, 9, 36, 39]. When n is small, it is well known that the solution of (1.1) can be computed by a direct method such as LU or Cholesky factorization.

  • Computing the Jordan Structure of an Eigenvalue∗

MATRIX ANAL.APPL. c 2017 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics Vol. 38, No. 3, pp. 949{966 COMPUTING THE JORDAN STRUCTURE OF AN EIGENVALUE∗ NICOLA MASTRONARDIy AND PAUL VAN DOORENz Abstract. In this paper we revisit the problem of finding an orthogonal similarity transformation that puts an n × n matrix A in a block upper-triangular form that reveals its Jordan structure at a particular eigenvalue λ0. The obtained form in fact reveals the dimensions of the null spaces of i (A − λ0I) at that eigenvalue via the sizes of the leading diagonal blocks, and from this the Jordan structure at λ0 is then easily recovered. The method starts from a Hessenberg form that already reveals several properties of the Jordan structure of A. It then updates the Hessenberg form in an efficient way to transform it to a block-triangular form in O(mn2) floating point operations, where m is the total multiplicity of the eigenvalue. The method only uses orthogonal transformations and is backward stable. We illustrate the method with a number of numerical examples. Key words.

Finding the eigenvalues and their corresponding Jordan struc- ture of a matrix A is one of the most studied problems in numerical linear algebra. This structure plays an important role in the solution of explicit differential equations, which can be modeled as n×n (1.1) λx(t) = Ax(t); x(0) = x0;A 2 R ; where λ stands for the differential operator.

Here, subdiagonal rank means the maximum order of a nonsingular submatrix all of whose entries are in the subdiagonal part. We prove that the property of being generalized Hessenberg matrix is preserved by post- and premultiplication by a nonsingular upper triangular matrix, by inversion (for invertible matrices), etc. We also study a special kind of generalized Hessenberg matrices. © 2003 Elsevier Inc.

  • Lecture Notes on Numerical Methods for Eigenvalues: Part III
    Lecture Notes on Numerical Methods for Eigenvalues: Part III Jiangguo (James) Liu ∗ May 4, 2020 This part discusses some advanced numerical methods for eigenvalues. We shall first discuss numerical eigensolvers for general matrices, then study numerical eigensolvers for symmetric (Hermitian) matrices. 1 Upper Hessenberg Form Recall that the general Schur canonical form is an upper triangular matrix, whereas a real Schur canonical form allows 2 × 2 blocks on its diagonal. To unify them, we consider the upper Hessenberg form. Definition (Upper Hessenberg form). A matrix H = [hij]n×n is called in the upper Hessenberg form provided that hi;j = 0 if i > j + 1. That is, its 1st sub-diagonal entries are allowed to be nonzero. Example. The matrix Tn obtained from finite difference discretization for the 1-dim Poisson boundary value problem with a homogeneous Dirichlet condition is actually in the upper Hessenberg form. 2 2 −1 0 0 ··· 0 0 3 6 −1 2 −1 0 ··· 0 0 7 6 7 6 0 −1 2 −1 ··· 0 0 7 Tn = 6 7 : 6 ····················· 7 6 7 4 0 0 0 0 ··· 2 −1 5 0 0 0 0 · · · −1 2 Actually it is also a symmetric tri-diagonal matrix. Definition (Unreduced upper Hessenberg form). An upper Hessenberg form is called unreduced provided that all the entries in its 1st sub-diagonal are nonzero. Note that if an upper Hessenberg form H is not unreduced simply because of hj+1;j = 0, then we can decompose it into two unreduced upper Hessenberg matrices by considering H1 = H(1 : j; 1 : j) and H2 = H((j + 1) : n; (j + 1) : n).

  • NEUTRALLY STABLE FIXED POINTS of the QR ALGORITHM 1. Background QR Iteration Is the Standard Method for Computing the Eigenvalue
    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF °c 0000 (copyright holder)Institute for Scientific NUMERICAL ANALYSIS AND MODELING Computing and Information Volume 00, Number 0, Pages 000–000 NEUTRALLY STABLE FIXED POINTS OF THE QR ALGORITHM DAVID M. DAY AND ANDREW D. HWANG Abstract. Volume 1, number 2, pages 147-156, 2004. Practical QR algorithm for the real unsymmetric algebraic eigenvalue problem is considered. The global convergence of shifted QR algorithm in finite precision arithmetic is addressed based on a model of the dynamics of QR algorithm in a neighborhood of an unreduced Hessenberg fixed point. The QR algorithm fails at a “stable” unreduced fixed point. Prior analyses have either determined some unstable unreduced Hessenberg fixed points or have addressed stability to perturbations of the reduced Hessenberg fixed points. The model states that sufficient criteria for stability (e.g. failure) in finite precision arithmetic are that a fixed point be neutrally stable both with respect to perturbations that are constrained to the orthogonal similarity class and to general perturbations from the full matrix space. The theoretical analysis presented herein shows that at an arbitrary unreduced fixed point “most” of the eigenvalues of the Jacobian(s) are of unit modulus. A framework for the analysis of special cases is developed that also sheds some light on the robustness of the QR algorithm. Key words. Unsymmetric eigenvalue problem, QR algorithm, unreduced fixed point 1. Background QR iteration is the standard method for computing the eigenvalues of an un- symmetric matrix [13, 16, 9, 2].

  • Parallel Reduction from Block Hessenberg to Hessenberg Using MPI
    Parallel Reduction from Block Hessenberg to Hessenberg using MPI Viktor Jonsson May 24, 2013 Master's Thesis in Computing Science, 30 credits Supervisor at CS-UmU: Lars Karlsson Examiner: Fredrik Georgsson Ume˚a University Department of Computing Science SE-901 87 UMEA˚ SWEDEN Abstract In many scientific applications, eigenvalues of a matrix have to be computed. By first reducing a matrix from fully dense to Hessenberg form, eigenvalue computations with the QR algorithm become more efficient. Previous work on shared memory architectures has shown that the Hessenberg reduction is in some cases most efficient when performed in two stages: First reduce the matrix to block Hessenberg form, then reduce the block Hessen- berg matrix to true Hessenberg form. This Thesis concerns the adaptation of an existing parallel reduction algorithm implementing the second stage to a distributed memory ar- chitecture. Two algorithms were designed using the Message Passing Interface (MPI) for communication between processes. The algorithms have been evaluated by an analyze of trace and run-times for different problem sizes and processes. Results show that the two adaptations are not efficient compared to a shared memory algorithm, but possibilities for further improvement have been identified. We found that an uneven distribution of work, a large sequential part, and significant communication overhead are the main bottlenecks in the distributed algorithms. Suggested further improvements are dynamic load balancing, sequential computation overlap, and hidden communication. ii Contents 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Memory Hierarchies . 1 1.2 Parallel Systems . 2 1.3 Linear Algebra . 3 1.4 Hessenberg Reduction Algorithms . 4 1.5 Problem statement .
