On speeding convergence of an iterative eigenvalue process
Mathematical Methods Department, Olivetti-General Electric, Milan, Italy
This paper describes a practical procedure suitable for accelerating convergence to the dominant latent root of matrices reducible to diagonal form. The adaptation of the technique for an automatic computer required a very limited working store. Some examples illustrate the method, and certain particularities are discussed.
