Invariant subspaces of $T$-palindromic pencils and algebraic $T$-Riccati equations (2302.10604v1)

Abstract: By exploiting the connection between solving algebraic $\top$-Riccati equations and computing certain deflating subspaces of $\top$-palindromic matrix pencils, we obtain theoretical and computational results on both problems. Theoretically, we introduce conditions to avoid the presence of modulus-one eigenvalues in a $\top$-palindromic matrix pencil and conditions for the existence of solutions of a $\top$-Riccati equation. Computationally, we improve the palindromic QZ algorithm with a new ordering procedure and introduce new algorithms for computing a deflating subspace of the $\top$-palindromic pencil, based on quadraticizations of the pencil or on an integral representation of the orthogonal projector on the sought deflating subspace.
