Structure-Preserving ΓQR and Γ-Lanczos Algorithms for Bethe-Salpeter Eigenvalue ProblemsZhen-Chen Guo, Tiexiang Li, Ying-Ying Zhou
To solve the Bethe-Salpeter eigenvalue problem with distinct sizes, two efficient methods, called ΓQR algorithm and Γ-Lanczos algorithm, are proposed in this paper. Both algorithms preserve the special structure of the initial matrix $H=\begin{bmatrix}A & B-\overline{B} & -\overline{A}\end{bmatrix}$, resulting the computed eigenvalues and the associated eigenvectors still hold the properties similar to those of $H$. Theorems are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed two algorithms in theory. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the superiorities of our methods.
