Perturbations to an ecosystem's steady state can trigger transient responses of great ecological relevance. Asymptotic stability determines whether a generic perturbation will fade out in the long run, but falls short of characterizing the dynamics imme ...
In many signal processing, machine learning and computer vision applications, one often has to deal with high dimensional and big datasets such as images, videos, web content, etc. The data can come in various forms, such as univariate or multivariate time ...
Data is pervasive in today's world and has actually been for quite some time. With the increasing volume of data to process, there is a need for faster and at least as accurate techniques than what we already have. In particular, the last decade recorded t ...
The QZ algorithm for computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix pencil A - lambda B requires that the matrices first be reduced to Hessenberg-triangular (HT) form. The current method of choice for HT reduction relies entirely on Givens rotations re ...
Following earlier work on some special cases [17,11] and on the analogous problem in higher dimensions [10,20], we make a more thorough investigation of the bifurcation points for a nonlinear boundary value problem of the form -{A(x)u' (x)}'.= f (lambda, x ...
In this thesis we address the computation of a spectral decomposition for symmetric
banded matrices. In light of dealing with large-scale matrices, where classical dense
linear algebra routines are not applicable, it is essential to design alternative tech ...
This work is concerned with approximating the smallest eigenvalue of a parameter-dependent Hermitian matrix A(mu) for many parameter values mu in a domain D subset of R-P. The design of reliable and efficient algorithms for addressing this task is of impor ...
The focus of this thesis is on developing efficient algorithms for two important problems arising in model reduction, estimation of the smallest eigenvalue for a parameter-dependent Hermitian matrix and solving large-scale linear matrix equations, by extra ...
