After reviewing the harmonic Rayleigh–Ritz approach for the standard and generalized eigenvalue problem, we discuss different extraction processes for subspace methods for the polynomial eigenvalue problem. We generalize the harmonic and refined Rayleigh–Ritz approach, which are new approaches to extract promising approximate eigenpairs from a search space. We give theoretical as well as numeri...

We investigate in this work the validity of linear stochastic models for nonlinear dynamical systems. We exploit as our basic tool a previously proposed Rayleigh-Ritz approximation for the effective action of nonlinear dynamical systems started from random initial conditions. The present paper discusses only the case where the PDF-Ansatz employed in the variational calculation is “Markovian”, i...

We consider the two-sided Arnoldi method and propose a two-sided Krylov–Schurtype restarting method. We discuss the restart for standard Rayleigh–Ritz extraction as well as harmonic Rayleigh–Ritz extraction. Additionally, we provide error bounds for Ritz values and Ritz vectors in the context of oblique projections and present generalizations of, e.g., the Bauer–Fike theorem and Saad’s theorem....

In a semiorthogonal Lanczos algorithm, the orthogonality of the Lanczos vectors is allowed to deteriorate to roughly the square root of the rounding unit, after which the current vectors are reorthogonalized. A theorem of Simon 4] shows that the Rayleigh quotient | i.e., the tridiagonal matrix produced by the Lanczos recursion | contains fully accurate approximations to the Ritz values in spite...

This paper concerns a harmonic projection method for computing an approximation to an eigenpair (λ, x) of a large matrix A. Given a target point τ and a subspace W that contains an approximation to x, the harmonic projection method returns an approximation (μ + τ, x̃) to (λ, x). Three convergence results are established as the deviation of x from W approaches zero. First, the harmonic Ritz value...

The Rayleigh quotient is unarguably the most important function used in the analysis and computation of eigenvalues of symmetric matrices. The Rayleigh-Ritz method finds the stationary values of the Rayleigh quotient, called Ritz values, on a given trial subspace as optimal, in some sense, approximations to eigenvalues. In the present paper, we derive upper bounds for proximity of the Ritz valu...

Rayleigh–Ritz eigenvalue estimates for Hermitian matrices obey Cauchy interlacing, which has helpful implications for theory, applications, and algorithms. In contrast, few results about the Ritz values of non-Hermitian matrices are known, beyond their containment within the numerical range. To show that such Ritz values enjoy considerable structure, we establish regions within the numerical ra...

This paper deals with the computation of the eigenvalues of a three-parameter Sturm-Liouville problem in the form of ordinary differential equation using Rayleigh-Ritz Method, a method which is based on the principle of variational methods. This method has been effective in computing the eigenvalues of self-adjoint problems. The resulting equations obtained in applying Rayleigh-Ritz method on t...

In this investigation Rayleigh-Ritz variational method has been applied to determine the least natural frequency coefficient for the title problem. Classical plate theory assumptions have been used to calculate strain energy and kinetic energy. Coordinate functions are combination of polynomials which satisfy boundary conditions at the outer boundary and trigonometric terms. In the second part ...
