  • Critical delays and polynomial Eigenvalue problems
    Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2009
    Co-Authors: Elias Jarlebring
    Abstract:

    In this work we present a new method to compute the delays of delay-differential equations (DDEs), such that the DDE has a Purely Imaginary Eigenvalue. For delay-differential equations with multiple delays, the critical curves or critical surfaces in delay space (that is, the set of delays where the DDE has a Purely Imaginary Eigenvalue) are parameterized. We show how the method is related to other works in the field by treating the case where the delays are integer multiples of some delay value, i.e., commensurate delays. The parameterization is done by solving a quadratic Eigenvalue problem which is constructed from the vectorization of a matrix equation and hence typically of large size. For commensurate delay-differential equations, the corresponding equation is a polynomial Eigenvalue problem. As a special case of the proposed method, we find a closed form for a parameterization of the critical surface for the scalar case. We provide several examples with visualizations where the computation is done with some exploitation of the structure of Eigenvalue problems.

  • On critical delays for linear neutral delay systems
    2007 European Control Conference (ECC), 2007
    Co-Authors: Elias Jarlebring
    Abstract:

    In this work we address the problem of finding the critical delays of a linear neutral delay system, i.e., the delays such that the system has a Purely Imaginary Eigenvalue. Even though neutral delay systems exhibit some discontinuity properties with respect to changes in the delays an essential part in a non-conservative stability analysis with respect to changes in the delays, is the computation of the critical delays.

  • Inverse Iteration for Purely Imaginary Eigenvalues with Application to the Detection of Hopf Bifurcations in Large-Scale Problems
    SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications, 2010
    Co-Authors: Karl Meerbergen, Alastair Spence
    Abstract:

    The detection of a Hopf bifurcation in a large-scale dynamical system that depends on a physical parameter often consists of computing the right-most Eigenvalues of a sequence of large sparse Eigenvalue problems. Guckenheimer, Gueron, and Harris-Warrick [SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 34 (1997), pp. 1-21] proposed a method that computes a value of the parameter that corresponds to a Hopf point without actually computing right-most Eigenvalues. This method utilizes a certain sum of Kronecker products and involves the solution of matrices of squared dimension, which is impractical for large-scale applications. However, if good starting guesses are available for the parameter and the Purely Imaginary Eigenvalue at the Hopf point, then efficient algorithms are available. In this paper, we propose a method for obtaining such good starting guesses, based on finding Purely Imaginary Eigenvalues of a two-parameter Eigenvalue problem (possibly arising after a linearization process). The problem is formulated as an inexact inverse iteration method that requires the solution of a sequence of Lyapunov equations with low rank right-hand sides. It is this last fact that makes the method feasible for large systems. The power of our method is tested on four numerical examples.

  • Extremal properties of contraction semigroups onc _0
    Semigroup Forum, 1996
    Co-Authors: Pei-kee Lin
    Abstract:

    For any complex Banach space X , let J denote the duality mapping of X . For any unit vector x in X and any ( C _0) contraction semigroup ( T _ t )_ t >0 on X , Baillon and Guerre-Delabriere proved that if X is a smooth reflexive Banach space and if there is x ^*∈ J(x) such that ÷〈( T(t)x, J(x)〈 ÷→1 as t →∞, then there is a unit vector y ∈ X which is an eigenvector of the generator A of ( T _ t )_ t >0 associated with a Purely Imaginary Eigenvalue. They asked whether this result is still true if X is replaced by c _0. In this article, we show the answer is negative
