Parallel approximation of the exponential of Hermitian matrices
share
In this work, we consider a rational approximation of the exponential function to design an algorithm for computing matrix exponential in the Hermitian case. Using partial fraction decomposition, we obtain a parallelizable method, where the computation reduces to independent resolutions of linear systems. We analyze the effects of rounding errors on the accuracy of our algorithm. We complete this work with numerical tests showing the efficiency of our method and a comparison of its performances with Krylov algorithms.
