The FEAST algorithm, a contour-integral based eigensolver, was developed for computing the eigenvalues inside a given interval, along with their eigenvectors, of a Hermitian generalized eigenproblem. The FEAST algorithm is a fast and stable technique, and is easily parallelizable. However, it was shown that this algorithm may fail to find the desired eigenpairs when applied to non-Hermitian problems. Efforts have been made to adapt FEAST to non-Hermitian problems. In this work, we aim at formulating a new non-Hermitian scheme for the FEAST algorithm. Our new scheme is based on the partial generalized Schur decomposition. Unlike the existing non Hermitian FEAST methods, our method seelcs approximation to the generalized Schur vectors instead of the potentially ill-conditioned eigenvectors. Our new method can compute not only the eigenvectors but also the right and left generalized Schur vectors corresponding to target eigenvalues. We present standard benchmark numerical experiments in which our method achieves better stability and efficiency comparing with the existing non-Hermitian FEAST algorithms. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc.

Recently, a class of eigensolvers based on contour integrals has been developed for computing the eigenvalues inside a given region in the complex plane. The CIRR method (a Rayleigh-Ritz type method with contour integrals) is a classic example among this kind of methods. It first constructs a subspace to contain the eigenspace of interest via a set of contour integrals, and then uses the standard Rayleigh-Ritz procedure to extract desired eigenpairs. However, it was shown that the CIRR method may fail to find the desired eigenpairs when the considered eigenproblem is non-Hermitian. This fact motivates us to develop a non-Hermitian scheme for the CIRR method. To this end, we formulate a Schur-Rayleigh-Ritz procedure to extract the desired eigenpairs. The theoretical analysis shows that our new extraction scheme can make the CIRR method also applicable for the non-Hermitian problems. Some implementation issues arising in practical applications are also studied. Numerical experiments are reported to illustrate the numerical performance of our new method.

The distribution of the eigenvalues of a Hermitian matrix (or of a Hermitian matrix pencil) reveals important features of the underlying problem, whether a Hamiltonian system in physics or a social network in behavioral sciences. However, computing all the eigenvalues explicitly is prohibitively expensive for real-world applications. This paper presents two types of methods to efficiently estimate the spectral density of a matrix pencil (A, B) where both A and B are sparse Hermitian and B is positive definite. The methods are targeted at the situation when the matrix B scaled by its diagonal is very well conditioned, as is the case when the problem arises from some finite element discretizations of certain partial differential equations. The first method is an adaptation of the kernel polynomial method (KPM) and the second is based on Gaussian quadrature by the Lanczos procedure. By employing Chebyshev polynomial approximation techniques, we can avoid direct factorizations in both methods, making the resulting algorithms suitable for large matrices. Under some assumptions, we prove bounds that suggest that the Lanczos method converges twice as fast as the KPM method. Numerical examples further indicate that the Lanczos method can provide more accurate spectral densities when the eigenvalue distribution is highly nonuniform. As an application, we show how to use the computed spectral density to partition the spectrum into intervals that contain roughly the same number of eigenvalues. This procedure, which makes it possible to compute the spectrum by parts, is a key ingredient in the new breed of eigensolvers that exploit "spectrum slicing."

The contour integral-based eigensolvers are the recent efforts for computing the eigenvalues inside a given region in the complex plane. The best-known members are the Sakurai-Sugiura method, its stable version CIRR, and the FEAST algorithm. An attractive computational advantage of these methods is that they are easily parallelizable. The FEAST algorithm was developed for the generalized Hermitian eigenvalueproblems. It is stable and accurate. However, it may fail when applied to non-Hermitian problems. Recently, a dual subspace FEAST algorithm was proposed to extend the FEAST algorithm to non-Hermitian problems. In this paper, we instead use the oblique projection technique to extend FEAST to the non-Hermitian problems. Our approach can be summarized as follows: (a) construct a particular contour integral to form a search subspace containing the desired eigenspace and (b) use the oblique projection technique to extract desired eigenpairs with appropriately chosen test subspace. The related mathematical framework is established. Comparing to the dual subspace FEAST algorithm, we can save the computational cost roughly by a half if only the eigenvalues or the eigenvalues together with their right eigenvectors are needed. We also address some implementation issues such as how to choose a suitable starting matrix and design-efficient stopping criteria. Numerical experiments are provided to illustrate that our method is stable and efficient.

Recently, contour integral-based methods have been actively studied for solving interior eigenvalueproblems that find all eigenvalues located in a certain region and their corresponding eigenvectors. In this paper, we reconsider the algorithms of the five typical contour integral-based eigensolvers from the viewpoint of projection methods, and then map the relationships among these methods. From the analysis, we conclude that all contour integral-based eigensolvers can be regarded as projection methods and can be categorized based on their subspace used, the type of projection and the problem to which they are applied implicitly.

For generalized eigenvalue problems, we consider computing all eigenvalues located in a certain region and their corresponding eigenvectors. Recently, contour integral spectral projection methods have been proposed for solving such problems. In this study, from the analysis of the relationship between the contour integral spectral projection and the Krylov subspace, we conclude that the Rayleigh-Ritz-type of the contour integral spectral projection method is mathematically equivalent to the Arnoldi method with the projected vectors obtained from the contour integration. By this Arnoldi-based interpretation, we then propose a block Arnoldi-type contour integral spectral projection method for solving the eigenvalue problem. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A finite family of R-I polynomials is introduced and studied. It consists in a set of polynomials of F-3(2) form whose biorthogonality to an ensemble of rational functions is spelled out. These polynomials are shown to satisfy two generalized eigenvalue problems: in addition to their recurrence relation of R-I type, they are also found to obey a difference equation. Underscoring this bispectrality is a triplet of operators with tridiagonal actions. The algebra associated to these operators is provided.

Non-Hermitian topological band structures such as symmetry-protected exceptional rings (SPERs) can emerge for systems described by the generalizedeigenvalue problem (GEVP) with Hermitian matrices. In this paper, we numerically analyze a photonic crystal with negative index media, which is described by the GEVP with Hermitian matrices. Our analysis using COMSOL Multiphysics((R)) demonstrates that a SPER emerges for photonic crystals composed of split-ring resonators and metal-wire structures. We expect that the above SPER can be observed in experiments as it emerges at a finite frequency.

In this article, we propose the Fast Algorithms for Maxwell's Equations (FAME) package for solving Maxwell's equations for modeling three-dimensional photonic crystals. FAME combines the null-space free method with fast Fourier transform (FFT)-based matrix-vector multiplications to solve the generalized eigenvalue problems (GEPs) arising from Yee's discretization. The GEPs are transformed into a null-space free standard eigenvalue problem with a Hermitian positive-definite coefficient matrix. The computation times for FFT-based matrix-vector multiplications with matrices of dimension 7 million are only 0.33 and 3.6 x 10(-3) seconds using MATLAB with an Intel Xeon CPU and CUDA C++ programming with a single NVIDIA Tesla P100 GPU, respectively. Such multiplications significantly reduce the computational costs of the conjugate gradient method for solving linear systems. We successfully use FAME on a single P100 GPU to solve a set of GEPs with matrices of dimension more than 19 million, in 127 to 191 seconds per problem. These results demonstrate the potential of our proposed package to enable large-scale numerical simulations for novel physical discoveries and engineering applications of photonic crystals.

详细信息
A feeding algorithm has been proposed for the excitation of the optimal electric current of Rayleigh quotient form optimization problems. Modal weighting coefficients of the corresponding generalizedeigenvalue problem are calculated to form the correlation information between the desired and all other unwanted modes. Based on this information, multiple feeds are arranged to approximate the desired current distributions. The eigencurrent distribution is also utilized for some shape modification to the radiator for a possible feed number reduction. Three canonical optimization problems for electrically small antennas, minimum Q, maximum G/Q, and maximum G are studied and discussed. Several numerical examples with a certain arbitrary shape and electrical size are given. With the proposed feeding algorithm, calculated and simulated current distributions and performance indices are close to the theoretical optimum solution. Finally, a practical feeding network design for a classic characteristic mode problem is shown as a validation.
