Numerical methods for nonlinear two-parameter eigenvalue problems (Q285283)

This paper deals with the nonlinear two-parameter eigenvalue problem (N2EP), which appears in the study of critical delays of delay-differential equations and can be seen as a generalization of both the nonlinear eigenvalue problem (NEP) and the two-parameter eigenvalue problem (2EP). Several numerical methods for NEP, including inverse iteration, residual inverse iteration, successive linear approximation, and Jacobi-Davidson method, are generalized to N2EP. Numerical tests show that the inverse iteration is the most competitive local method and the Jacobi-Davidson method can be used as a global method.
