Structured low rank decomposition of multivariate Hankel matrices

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We study the decomposition of a multivariate Hankel matrix H_sigma as a sum of Hankel matrices of small rank in correlation with the decomposition of its symbol sigma as a sum of polynomial-exponential series. We present a new algorithm to compute the low rank decomposition of the Hankel operator and the decomposition of its symbol exploiting the properties of the associated Artinian Gorenstein quotient algebra A_sigma. A basis of A_sigma is computed from the Singular Value Decomposition of a sub-matrix of the Hankel matrix H_sigma. The frequencies and the weights are deduced from the generalized eigenvectors of pencils of shifted sub-matrices of H sigma. Explicit formula for the weights in terms of the eigenvectors avoid us to solve a Vandermonde system. This new method is a multivariate generalization of the so-called Pencil method for solving Prony-type decomposition problems. We analyse its numerical behaviour in the presence of noisy input moments, and describe a rescaling technique which improves the numerical quality of the reconstruction for frequencies of high amplitudes. We also present a new Newton iteration, which converges locally to the closest multivariate Hankel matrix of low rank and show its impact for correcting errors on input moments.
