Abstract

An application of the Lanczos algorithm for the matrix eigenproblem to nuclear shell-model calculations is described. The method has many advantages over conventional shell-model techniques, one of the most important being a very much slower growth of computation time with increasing dimensionality of the shell-model basis.

    Citation Excerpt :

    The needed dimension of the Hamiltonian matrix is often quite huge, therefore, the Krylov-subspace iteration algorithm is quite efficient. The Lanczos algorithm, one of the most famous Krylov-subspace algorithms, was introduced in 70ʼs [2–4] and has been widely used in shell-model calculations. Nowadays, it is implemented to take advantage of massively parallel computations [5].
