NAG Library Routine Document
f02fkf (real_symm_sparse_arnoldi)
Note: this routine uses optional parameters to define choices in the problem specification. If you wish to use default
settings for all of the optional parameters, you need only read Sections 1 to 10 of this document. If, however, you wish to reset some or all of the settings this must be done by calling the option setting routine f12fdf from the user-supplied subroutine option. Please refer to Section 11 for a detailed description of the specification of the optional parameters.

Description
f02fkf computes selected eigenvalues and the corresponding right eigenvectors of a real sparse symmetric matrix
:
A specified number, , of eigenvalues , or the shifted inverses , may be selected either by largest or smallest modulus, largest or smallest value, or, largest and smallest values (both ends). Convergence is generally faster when selecting larger eigenvalues, smaller eigenvalues can always be selected by choosing a zero inverse shift (). When eigenvalues closest to a given value are required then the shifted inverses of largest magnitude should be selected with shift equal to the required value.
The sparse matrix
is stored in symmetric coordinate storage (SCS) format. See
Section 2.1.2 in the F11 Chapter Introduction.
f02fkf uses an implicitly restarted Arnoldi (Lanczos) iterative method to converge approximations to a set of required eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors. Further algorithmic information is given in
Section 9 while a fuller discussion is provided in the
F12 Chapter Introduction. If shifts are to be performed then operations using shifted inverse matrices are performed using a direct sparse solver.

The number of Arnoldi basis vectors to use during the computation.
At present there is no
a priori analysis to guide the selection of
ncv relative to
nev. However, it is recommended that
. If many problems of the same type are to be solved, you should experiment with increasing
ncv while keeping
nev fixed for a given test problem. This will usually decrease the required number of matrix-vector operations but it also increases the work and storage required to maintain the orthogonal basis vectors. The optimal ‘cross-over’ with respect to computation time is problem dependent and must be determined empirically.

You can supply non-default options to the Arnoldi eigensolver by repeated calls to
f12fdf from within
option. (Please note that it is only necessary to call
f12fdf; no call to
f12faf is required from within
option.) For example, you can set the mode to
Shifted Inverse, you can increase the
Iteration Limit beyond its default and you can print varying levels of detail on the iterative process using
Print Level.
If only the default options (including that the eigenvalues of largest magnitude are sought) are to be used then
option may be the dummy subroutine f02eky (f02eky is included in the NAG Library). See
Section 10 for an example of using
option to set some non-default options.

Accuracy
The relative accuracy of a Ritz value (eigenvalue approximation),
, is considered acceptable if its Ritz estimate
. The default value for
Tolerance is the
machine precision given by
x02ajf. The Ritz estimates are available via the
monit subroutine at each iteration in the Arnoldi process, or can be printed by setting option
Print Level to a positive value.

Parallelism and Performance
f02fkf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f02fkf makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the
X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the
Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.
f02fkf calls routines based on the ARPACK suite in
Chapter F12. These routines use an implicitly restarted Lanczos iterative method to converge to approximations to a set of required eigenvalues (see the
F12 Chapter Introduction).
In the default
Regular mode, only matrix-vector multiplications are performed using the sparse matrix
during the Lanczos process;
f11xef can be used to perform this task. Each iteration is therefore cheap computationally, relative to the alternative,
Shifted Inverse, mode described below. It is most efficient (i.e., the total number of iterations required is small) when the eigenvalues of largest magnitude are sought and these are distinct.
Although there is an option for returning the smallest eigenvalues using this mode (see
Smallest Magnitude option), the number of iterations required for convergence will be far greater or the method may not converge at all. However, where convergence is achieved,
Regular mode may still prove to be the most efficient since no inversions are required. Where smallest eigenvalues are sought and
Regular mode is not suitable, or eigenvalues close to a given real value are sought, the
Shifted Inverse mode should be used.
If the
Shifted Inverse mode is used (via a call to
f12fdf in
option) then the matrix
is used in linear system solves by the Lanczos process. This is first factorized internally using a direct sparse
factorization under the assumption that the matrix is indefinite. If the factorization determines that the matrix is numerically singular then the routine exits with an error. In this situation it is normally sufficient to perturb
by a small amount and call
f02fkf again. After successful factorization, subsequent solves are performed by backsubstitution using the sparse factorization.
Finally, f02fkf transforms the eigenvectors. Each eigenvector is normalized so that .
The monitoring routine
monit provides some basic information on the convergence of the Lanczos iterations. Much greater levels of detail on the Lanczos process are available via option
Print Level. If this is set to a positive value then information will be printed, by default, to standard output. The destination of monitoring information can be changed using the
Monitoring option.
9.1
Additional Licensor
The direct sparse factorization is performed by an implementation of HSL_MA97 (see
HSL (2011)).

Optional Parameters
Internally
f02fkf calls routines from the suite
f12faf,
f12fbf,
f12fcf,
f12fdf and
f12fef. Several optional parameters for these computational routines define choices in the problem specification or the algorithm logic. In order to reduce the number of formal arguments of
f02fkf these optional parameters are also used here and have associated
default values that are usually appropriate. Therefore, you need only specify those optional parameters whose values are to be different from their default values.
Optional parameters may be specified via the user-supplied subroutine
option in the call to
f02fkf.
option must be coded such that one call to
f12fdf is necessary to set each optional parameter. All optional parameters you do not specify are set to their default values.
The remainder of this section can be skipped if you wish to use the default values for all optional parameters.
The following is a list of the optional parameters available. A full description of each optional parameter is provided in
Section 11.1.
11.1
Description of the Optional Parameters
For each option, we give a summary line, a description of the optional parameter and details of constraints.
The summary line contains:
- the keywords, where the minimum abbreviation of each keyword is underlined;
- a parameter value,
where the letters , and denote options that take character, integer and real values respectively;
- the default value, where the symbol is a generic notation for machine precision (see x02ajf).
Keywords and character values are case and white space insensitive.
Advisory | | Default the value returned by x04abf
|
If the optional parameter
List is set then optional parameter specifications are listed in a
List file by setting the option to a file identification (unit) number associated with
Advisory messages (see
x04abf and
x04acf).
This special keyword may be used to reset all optional parameters to their default values.
Iteration Limit | |
Default |
The limit on the number of Lanczos iterations that can be performed before
f12fbf exits. If not all requested eigenvalues have converged to within
Tolerance and the number of Lanczos iterations has reached this limit then
f12fbf exits with an error;
f12fcf can still be called subsequently to return the number of converged eigenvalues, the converged eigenvalues and, if requested, the corresponding eigenvectors.
Largest Magnitude | | Default |
The Lanczos iterative method converges on a number of eigenvalues with given properties. The default is for
f12fbf to compute the eigenvalues of largest magnitude using
Largest Magnitude. Alternatively, eigenvalues may be chosen which have
Largest Algebraic part,
Smallest Magnitude, or
Smallest Algebraic part; or eigenvalues which are from
Both Ends of the algebraic spectrum.
Normally each optional parameter specification is not listed as it is supplied. This behaviour can be changed using the
List and
Nolist options.
If
, monitoring information is output to channel number
during the solution of each problem; this may be the same as the
Advisory channel number. The type of information produced is dependent on the value of
Print Level, see the description of the optional parameter
Print Level for details of the information produced. Please see
x04acf to associate a file with a given channel number.
This controls the amount of printing produced by
f02fkf as follows.

Note that setting
can result in very lengthy
Monitoring output.
These options define the computational mode which in turn defines the form of operation to be performed.
An approximate eigenvalue has deemed to have converged when the corresponding Ritz estimate is within
Tolerance relative to the magnitude of the eigenvalue.
