An indicator tells the eigenvalue existence based on some statistical norm estimators for a spectral projector. Previous work on eigenvalue indicators relies on a threshold which is empirically chosen, thus often resulting in under or over detection. In this paper, we use rigorous statistical analysis to guide the design of a robust indicator. Multiple randomized estimators for a contour integral operator in terms of <i>A</i> are analyzed. In particular, when <i>A</i> has eigenvalues inside a given interval, we show that the failure probability (for the estimators to return very small estimates) is extremely low. This enables to design a robust rejection indicator based on the control of the failure probability. We also give a prototype framework to illustrate how the indicator method may be applied numerically for eigenvalue detection and may potentially serve as a new way to design randomized symmetric eigenvalue solvers. Unlike previous indicator methods that only detect eigenvalue existence, the framework also provides a way to find eigenvectors with little extra cost by reusing computations from indicator evaluations. Extensive numerical tests show the reliability of the eigenvalue detection in multiple aspects.</p>","PeriodicalId":50055,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Scientific Computing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141532366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While time-parallel method multigrid-reduction-in-time (MGRIT) provides an alternative to enhance concurrency, it generally requires large numbers of iterations to converge or even fails when applied to advection-dominated problems. To enhance the convergence of MGRIT, we propose the use of consecutive-step coarse-grid operators in MGRIT, rather than the standard rediscretized coarse-grid operators. The consecutive-step coarse-grid operator is defined as the multiplication of several fine-grid operators, which is able to track the advective characteristic more accurately than the standard rediscretized one. Numerical results show that multilevel MGRIT using the proposed operator is more efficient than the one using the standard rediscretized operator when applied to linear advection problems. Moreover, we perform time-parallel computing of the Euler equations and the Navier–Stokes equations by using the proposed method. Spatial coarsening is also considered. Compared with the MGRIT using the standard rediscretization approach, the developed method demonstrates enhanced robustness and efficiency in handling complex flow problems, including cases involving multidimensional shock waves and contact discontinuities.</p>","PeriodicalId":50055,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Scientific Computing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141512488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
