A homotopy method for computing the largest eigenvalue of an irreducible nonnegative tensor

Numerical Analysis 2017-01-27 v1

Abstract

In this paper we propose a homotopy method to compute the largest eigenvalue and a corresponding eigenvector of a nonnegative tensor. We prove that it converges to the desired eigenpair when the tensor is irreducible. We also implement the method using an prediction-correction approach for path following. Some numerical results are provided to illustrate the efficiency of the method.
