Abstract
- We study Lanczos and polynomial algorithms with random start for estimating an eigenvector corresponding to the largest eigenvalue of an n × n large symmetric positive definite matrix. We analyze the two error criteria: the randomized error and the randomized residual error. For the randomized error, we prove that it is not possible to get distribution-free bounds, i.e., the bounds must depend on the distribution of eigenvalues of the matrix. We supply such bounds and show that they depend on the ratio of the two largest eigenvalues. For the randomized residual error, distribution-free bounds exist and are provided in the paper. We also provide asymptotic bounds, as well as bounds depending on the ratio of the two largest eigenvalues. The bounds for the Lanczos algorithm may be helpful in a practical implementation and termination of this algorithm. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
