A numerical comparison of solvers for large-scale, continuous-time algebraic Riccati equations and LQR problems
In this paper, we discuss numerical methods for solving large-scale
continuous-time algebraic Riccati equations. These methods have been the focus
of intensive research in recent years, and significant progress has been made
in both the theoretical understanding and efficient implementation of various
competing algorithms. There are several goals of this manuscript: first, to
gather in one place an overview of different approaches for solving large-scale
Riccati equations, and to point to the recent advances in each of them. Second,
to analyze and compare the main computational ingredients of these algorithms,
to detect their strong points and their potential bottlenecks. And finally, to
compare the effective implementations of all methods on a set of relevant
benchmark examples, giving an indication of their relative performance
