This work reduces the computational complexity of the Arnoldi iteration from O(k2N) to O(N), thus paving the way for full-wave extraction of very large-scale on-chip interconnects, the k of which is hundreds of thousands.
Abstract
In general, the optimal computational complexity of Arnoldi iteration is O(k2N) for solving a generalized eigenvalue problem, with k being the number of dominant eigenvalues and N the matrix size. In this work, we reduce the computational complexity of the Arnoldi iteration from O(k2N) to O(N), thus paving the way for full-wave extraction of very large-scale on-chip interconnects, the k of which is hundreds of thousands. Numerical and experimental results have demonstrated the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed fast eigenvalue solver.
