### Improving convergence of Jacobi iteration to Schur form

I'm using SIMD processor arrays to compute the eigen-decomposition for large numbers of small (up to $32\times 32$) matrices. For assorted technical reasons, Jacobi iteration maps well to the SIMD ...

### Preconditioned residual converges, but true residual doesn't

I'm using Albany w/ Trilinos to solve an elasticity problem with thermal expansion mismatch. I'm using block GMRES with MueLu preconditioning. It works for problem size of several million dofs, but ...

### Automatic differentiation of barycentric rational functions

By a barycentric rational interpolant we understand a function of the form \begin{align*} r(t) := \frac{\sum_{i=0}^{n-1} \frac{w_i y_i}{t-t_i} }{ \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} \frac{w_i}{t-t_i}} \end{align*} In ...

### A good 2D finite difference for the continuity equation

How could I go about solving the continuity equation below in 2D? $$\frac{\partial \rho}{\partial t} + \nabla \cdot \left(\rho u\right)=0$$ I saw that a similar question was posted here: A good ...

### Can I MPI_Test for an Ibarrier

In this code, all processes post a barrier, sleep a while for good measure, then first Test and then Wait for the barrier. The <...

### Complex Integral Equation Solution in MATLAB

I need to solve an integral equation in the form: $$A(z)+\int\limits^{z_2}_{z_1}B(z') \frac{z^N}{z^N-z'^N} \frac{e^{i\beta}}{|z|}\mathrm{d}z'=0$$ where $A(z)$ distribution is known and we are ...

### Solve ill-posed linear system without transposing matrices?

I am attempting to use an iterative solver to solve $p$ in $$Jp = -r$$ where $J$ is an $m\times m$ matrix. Unfortunately, this is an ill-posed problem and possibly infinite versions of $p$ exist. ...

### How to construct a eigensolver targeting a specific type of matrix

I need to diagonalize such kind of matrix during research: it's n-by-n, with it's upper-left (n-1)-by-(n-1) corner be diagonal while the nth row & column are dense. It's observed that the self ...

### Inverse problems with a discrete set of known parameters

What are the techniques on inverse problems to discover the distribution of parameters from a discrete set of values? For instance, I know that my domain where the PDE is defined is made up of ...

### How to stochastically estimate the trace of a matrix?

Specifically, the diagonal elements (can possibly both positive and negative) of the matrix can be computed efficiently but the total number is large ($\mathcal O(10^{18})$). My first thought about ...
I wish to compute a certain function $\lambda$ (in my case an eigenvalue of the Laplacian) to a certain accuracy, which I wish to guarantee, if possible. I started with a finite element method. I know ...
