FEAST FOR DIFFERENTIAL EIGENVALUE PROBLEMS

摘要

An operator analogue of the FEAST matrix eigensolver is developed to compute the discrete part of the spectrum of a differential operator in a region of interest in the complex plane. Unbounded search regions are handled with a novel rational filter for the right half-plane. If the differential operator is normal or self-adjoint, then the operator analogue preserves that structure and robustly computes eigenvalues to near machine precision accuracy. The algorithm is particularly adept at computing high-frequency modes of differential operators that possess self-adjoint structure with respect to weighted Hilbert spaces.
