二、讲座信息
讲座摘要：
We consider the problem of solving matrix equations of the kind A_1 X^2+A_0X+A_(-1)=X , where the coefficients A_r ,r=-1,0,1, are matrices having specific structures, and X is the unknown matrix. The solution of interest is the one that has some minimality properties, say, it has a minimal spectral radius or has nonnegative entries with minimal value. This kind of problem is encountered in the solution of Quasi-Birth-Death processes, a general framework that models real-world problems in terms of Markov chains. In this talk, after presenting and motivating the interest of this class of equations, we investigate some computational issues encountered in their solution. For this class of problems, the coefficients A_r ,r=-1,0,1 , are semi-infinite Quasi-Toeplitz (QT) matrices. We give conditions under which the class of QT matrices is a Banach algebra, that is, a vector space closed under multiplication, endowed with a norm that makes it a Banach space. We give conditions under which the sought solution, say the minimal nonnegative one, is still a QT matrix, and describe and analyze algorithms for its effective computation. Finally, by means of some numerical experiments performed with the CQT Matlab Toolbox, we show the effectiveness of our algorithms。
