Abstract

n this paper, we present an inexact inverse subspace iteration method for computing a few eigenpairs of the generalized eigenvalue problem Ax=λBx. We first formulate a version of inexact inverse subspace iteration in which the approximation from one step is used as an initial approximation for the next step. We then analyze the convergence property, which relates the accuracy in the inner iteration to the convergence rate of the outer iteration. In particular, the linear convergence property of the inverse subspace iteration is preserved. Numerical examples are given to demonstrate the theoretical results.
