MS 44 and MS56: Nonlinear Eigenvalue Problems
- Objective
Nonlinear eigenvalue problems (NEP) arise in a variety of
scientific applications. These problems are considerably
more difficult tto solve than the standard linear
eigenvalue problems. Even for the simplest type of NEP, i.e.,
quadratic eigenvalue problems, which often encounters in
structure dynamic analysis, seeking a solution that preserves certain
structure of the underlying physical system may prove to be
chanllenging. For general nonlinear eigenvalue problems arising
from quantum chemistry, the convergence of the existing
algorithm is still poorly understood. The sheer size of these problems
requires us to seek more efficient and scalable apporaches.
The purpose of this minisymposium is to discuss the latest
algorithmic development of numerical solution to NEPs and
to examine the effectiveness of these developments
in real applications.
