Description

This presentation examines the asymptotic behavior of matrix iterations, focusing on the QR and LR algorithms and their significance in eigenvalue computation. It highlights foundational developments by Rutishauser, Francis, and Kublanovskaya and modern refinements by Huang and Tam, particularly on matrix decompositions and spectral properties. Extensions of Yamamoto’s theorem, including recent works by Nayak and Shekhawat, and Huang and Tam, are discussed, connecting iterative processes to spectral radius formulas and Jordan decompositions. This is a joint work with Huajun Huang of Auburn University.
