We show that arbitrary convergence behavior of Ritz values is possible in the Arnoldi method and we give two parametrizations of the class of matrices with initial Arnoldi vectors that generates prescribed Ritz values (in all iterations). The second parametrization enables us to prove that any GMRES residual norm history is possible with any prescribed Ritz values (in all iterations), provided ...

The usual estimates for conjugate gradients (CG) specify a non–trivial rate of convergence right from the beginning. We investigate situations where the same can be said for Ritz values (considered as approximations to eigenvalues). We investigate the effect on the convergence behaviour of Ritz values of multiplying the weight functions by certain functions of polynomial growth. This will be sh...

We extend the Rayleigh–Ritz method to the eigen-problem of periodic matrix pairs. Assuming that the deviations of the desired periodic eigenvectors from the corresponding periodic subspaces tend to zero, we show that there exist periodic Ritz values that converge to the desired periodic eigenvalues unconditionally, yet the periodic Ritz vectorsmay fail to converge. To overcome this potential pr...

For a given subspace, the q-Rayleigh-Ritz method projects the large quadratic eigenvalue problem (QEP) onto it and produces a small sized dense QEP. Similar to the Rayleigh-Ritz method for the linear eigenvalue problem, the q-Rayleigh-Ritz method defines the q-Ritz values and the q-Ritz vectors of the QEP with respect to the projection subspace. We analyze the convergence of the method when the...

The Rayleigh-Ritz method finds the stationary values, called Ritz values, of the Rayleigh quotient on a given trial subspace as approximations to eigenvalues of a Hermitian operator A. If the trial subspace is A-invariant, the Ritz values are exactly some of the eigenvalues of A. Given two subspaces X and Y of the same finite dimension, such that X is A-invariant, the absolute changes in the Ri...

In this paper for a given prescribed Ritz values that satisfy in the some special conditions, we find a symmetric nonnegative matrix, such that the given set be its Ritz values.

A procedure is presented for the computation of bounds to eigenvalues of the generalized hermitian eigenvalue problem and to the standard hermitian eigenvalue problem. This procedure is applicable to iterative subspace eigenvalue methods and to both outer and inner eigenvalues. The Ritz values and their corresponding residual norms, all of which are computable quantities, are needed by the proc...

Ritz Values and Arnoldi Convergence for Nonsymmetric Matrices by Russell Carden The restarted Arnoldi method, useful for determining a few desired eigenvalues of a matrix, employs shifts to refine eigenvalue estimates. In the symmetric case, using selected Ritz values as shifts produces convergence due to interlacing. For nonsymmetric matrices the behavior of Ritz values is insufficiently under...

One application of harmonic Ritz values is to approximate, with a projection method, the interior eigenvalues of a matrix A while avoiding the explicit use of the inverse A. In this context, harmonic Ritz values are commonly derived from a Petrov-Galerkin condition for the residual of a vector from the test space. In this paper, we investigate harmonic Ritz values from a slightly different pers...
