A literature survey of low-rank tensor approximation techniques
During the last years, low-rank tensor approximation has been established as
a new tool in scientific computing to address large-scale linear and
multilinear algebra problems, which would be intractable by classical
techniques. This survey attempts to give a literature overview of current
developments in this area, with an emphasis on function-related tensors
Tensor Numerical Methods in Quantum Chemistry: from Hartree-Fock Energy to Excited States
We resume the recent successes of the grid-based tensor numerical methods and
discuss their prospects in real-space electronic structure calculations. These
methods, based on the low-rank representation of the multidimensional functions
and integral operators, led to entirely grid-based tensor-structured 3D
Hartree-Fock eigenvalue solver. It benefits from tensor calculation of the core
Hamiltonian and two-electron integrals (TEI) in complexity using
the rank-structured approximation of basis functions, electron densities and
convolution integral operators all represented on 3D
Cartesian grids. The algorithm for calculating TEI tensor in a form of the
Cholesky decomposition is based on multiple factorizations using algebraic 1D
``density fitting`` scheme. The basis functions are not restricted to separable
Gaussians, since the analytical integration is substituted by high-precision
tensor-structured numerical quadratures. The tensor approaches to
post-Hartree-Fock calculations for the MP2 energy correction and for the
Bethe-Salpeter excited states, based on using low-rank factorizations and the
reduced basis method, were recently introduced. Another direction is related to
the recent attempts to develop a tensor-based Hartree-Fock numerical scheme for
finite lattice-structured systems, where one of the numerical challenges is the
summation of electrostatic potentials of a large number of nuclei. The 3D
grid-based tensor method for calculation of a potential sum on a lattice manifests the linear in computational work, ,
instead of the usual scaling by the Ewald-type approaches
Generalized companion matrix for approximate GCD
We study a variant of the univariate approximate GCD problem, where the
coefficients of one polynomial f(x)are known exactly, whereas the coefficients
of the second polynomial g(x)may be perturbed. Our approach relies on the
properties of the matrix which describes the operator of multiplication by gin
the quotient ring C[x]=(f). In particular, the structure of the null space of
the multiplication matrix contains all the essential information about GCD(f;
g). Moreover, the multiplication matrix exhibits a displacement structure that
allows us to design a fast algorithm for approximate GCD computation with
quadratic complexity w.r.t. polynomial degrees.Comment: Submitted to MEGA 201
GPGCD: An iterative method for calculating approximate GCD of univariate polynomials
We present an iterative algorithm for calculating approximate greatest common
divisor (GCD) of univariate polynomials with the real or the complex
coefficients. For a given pair of polynomials and a degree, our algorithm finds
a pair of polynomials which has a GCD of the given degree and whose
coefficients are perturbed from those in the original inputs, making the
perturbations as small as possible, along with the GCD. The problem of
approximate GCD is transfered to a constrained minimization problem, then
solved with the so-called modified Newton method, which is a generalization of
the gradient-projection method, by searching the solution iteratively. We
demonstrate that, in some test cases, our algorithm calculates approximate GCD
with perturbations as small as those calculated by a method based on the
structured total least norm (STLN) method and the UVGCD method, while our
method runs significantly faster than theirs by approximately up to 30 or 10
times, respectively, compared with their implementation. We also show that our
algorithm properly handles some ill-conditioned polynomials which have a GCD
with small or large leading coefficient.Comment: Preliminary versions have been presented as
