Multiple Explicitly Restarted Arnoldi Method for Solving Large Eigenproblems
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we propose a new approach for calculating some eigenpairs of large sparse nonHermitian matrices. This method, called Multiple Explicitly Restarted Arnoldi (MERAM), is particularly well suited for environments that combine different parallel programming paradigms. This technique is based on a multiple use of Explicitly Restarted Arnoldi method and improves its convergence. This technique is implemented and tested on a distributed enviromnment consisting of two interconnected parallel machines. MERAM technique is compared to Explicitly Restarted Arnoldi (ERAM) method, and one can notice that the accelaration of convergence is improved effectively. In some cases, more than one two-fold improvement can be seen in MERAM results. We also implemented MERAM on a cluster of workstations. According to our experiments, MERAM converges better than Explicitly Restarted Block Arnoldi method and, for some matrices, more quickly than PARPACK package which implements Implicitly Restarted Arnoldi Method.

Some new restart vectors for explicitly restarted Arnoldi method
The explicitly restarted Arnoldi method (ERAM) can be used to find some eigenvalues of large and sparse matrices. However, it has been shown that even this method may fail to converge. In this paper, we present two new methods to accelerate the convergence of ERAM algorithm. In these methods, we apply two strategies for the updated initial vector in each restart cycles. The implementation of th...

Global projection methods have been used for solving numerous large matrix equations, but nothing has been known on if and how a global projection method can be proposed for solving large eigenproblems. In this paper, based on the global Arnoldi process that generates an Forthonormal basis of a matrix Krylov subspace, a global Arnold method is proposed for large eigenproblems. It computes certa...

Least Squares Arnoldi for Large Nonsymmetric Eigenproblems
In this paper, we propose a highly e cient accelerating method for the restarted Arnoldi iteration to compute the eigenvalues of a large nonsymmetric matrix. Its e ectiveness is proved by various numerical experiments and comparisons with other approaches. Several new results on the characteristics of the polynomial acceleration are also reported. The Arnoldi iteration has been the most popular...
