In a recent paper Sima, Van Huffel and Golub [Regularized total least squares based on quadratic eigenvalue problem solvers. BIT Numerical Mathematics 44, 793 812 (2004)] suggested a computational approach for solving regularized total least squares problems via a sequence of quadratic eigenvalue problems. Taking advantage of a variational characterization of real eigenvalues of nonlinear eigen...

This paper is concerned with the computation of 3D vertex singularities of anisotropic elastic fields. The singularities are described by eigenpairs of a corresponding operator pencil on a subdomain of the sphere. The solution approach is to introduce a modified quadratic variational boundary eigenvalue problem which consists of two self-adjoint, positive definite sesquilinear forms and a skew-...

We consider a new adaptive finite element (AFEM) algorithm for self-adjoint elliptic PDE eigenvalue problems. In contrast to other approaches we incorporate the inexact solutions of the resulting finite dimensional algebraic eigenvalue problems into the adaptation process. In this way we can balance the costs of the adaptive refinement of the mesh with the costs for the iterative eigenvalue met...

In this paper, we propose a new approach for the detection of OFDMA and other wideband signals in the context of centralized cooperative spectrum sensing for cognitive radio (CR) applications. The approach is based on the eigenvalues of the received signal covariance matrix whose samples are in the frequency domain. Soft combining of the eigenvalues at the fusion center is the main novelty. Thi...

A novel integrated approach is developed to design systems for stability and robustness. First, design parameters with large variation bounds are chosen to maintain system stability. Then, a robust eigenvalue design problem is considered to make the dynamic response less sensitive to parameter variations. A new complex sensitivity matrix is derived from the system dynamics with the eigenvalue v...

In this paper, we propose a palindromic quadratization approach, transforming a palindromic matrix polynomial of even degree to a palindromic quadratic pencil. Based on the (S + S−1)-transform and Patel’s algorithm, the structurepreserving algorithm can then be applied to solve the corresponding palindromic quadratic eigenvalue problem. Numerical experiments show that the relative residuals for...
