A novel numerical method to determine the algebraic multiplicity of nonlinear eigenvalues

摘要

We generalize the algebraic multiplicity of the eigenvalues of nonlinear eigenvalue problems (NEPs) to the rational form and give the extension of the argument principle. In addition, we propose a novel numerical method to determine the algebraic multiplicity of the eigenvalues of the NEPs in a given region by the contour integral method. Finally, some numerical experiments are reported to illustrate the effectiveness of our method.
