In exact arithmetic, this problem can be solved using substitution. In practice, substitution is vulnerable to floating-point overflow. The robust solvers xTGEVC in LAPACK prevent overflow by dynamically scaling the eigenvectors. These subroutines are sequential scalar codes which compute the eigenvectors one by one. In this paper we discuss how to derive robust blocked algorithms. The new StarNEig library contains a robust task-parallel solver Zazamoukh which runs on top of StarPU. Our numerical experiments show that Zazamoukh achieves a super-linear speedup compared with DTGEVC for sufficiently large matrices.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2003.04776v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2003.04776v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"parallel-robust-computation-of-generalized","repo_url":"https://github.com/NLAFET/StarNEig","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
