In this paper, we review two types of doubling algorithm and some techniques for analyzing them. We then use the techniques to study the doubling algorithm for three different nonlinear matrix equations in the critical ...

In studying the vibration of fast trains, we encounter a palindromic quadratic eigenvalue problem (QEP) $(\lambda^2 A^T + \lambda Q + A)z = 0$, where $A, Q \in \mathbb{C}^{n \times n}$ and $Q^T = Q$. Moreover, the matrix ...

We study the matrix equation $X+A^{T}X^{-1}A=Q$, where $A$ is a complex square matrix and $Q$ is complex symmetric. Special cases of this equation appear in Green's function calculation in nano research and also in the ...

The matrix equation $X+A^{T}X^{-1}A=Q$ arises in Green's function calculations in nano research, where $A$ is a real square matrix and $Q$ is a real symmetric matrix dependent on a parameter and is usually indefinite. ...

The matrix equation $X+A^TX^{-1}A=Q$ has been studied extensively when $A$ and $Q$ are real square matrices and $Q$ is symmetric positive definite. The equation has positive definite solutions under suitable conditions, ...

The Green's function approach for treating quantum transport in nano devices requires the solution of nonlinear matrix equations of the form $X+(C^*+{\rm i} \eta D^*)X^{-1}(C+{\rm i} \eta D)=R+{\rm i}\eta P$, where $R$ ...

We determine and compare the convergence rates of various fixed-point iterations for finding the minimal positive solution of a class of nonsymmetric algebraic Riccati equations arising in transport theory.
