Abstract

We consider the refinement of estimates of invariant (or deflating) subspaces for a large and sparse real matrix (or pencil) in ℝn×n, through some (generalized) nonsymmetric algebraic Riccati equations or their associated (generalized) Sylvester equations via Newton's method. The crux of the method is the inversion of some well-conditioned unstructured matrices via the efficient and stable inversion of the associated structured but near-singular matrices.All computations have complexity proportional to n, under appropriate assumptions, as illustrated by several numerical examples.
