Explicit Solutions for a Riccati Equation from Transport Theory

Abstract: We derive formulas for the minimal positive solution of a particular non-symmetric Riccati equation arising in transport theory. The formulas are based on the eigenvalues of an associated matrix. We use the formulas to explore some new properties of the minimal positive solution and to derive fast and highly accurate numerical methods. Some numerical tests demonstrate the properties of the new methods.

“…Nonsymmetric algebraic Riccati equation (7) associated with M-matrices appear in a problem in neutron transport theory; see [3,[34][35][36], where the mathematical model consists in solving an integro-differential equation. After discretization of this integro-differential equation, the problem can be expressed as the following matrix equation…”

“…Symmetric algebraic Riccati equations have been the topic of extensive research, and the theory, applications, and numerical solutions of these equations are the subject of [5,6,7,8] as well as the monographs [21,29]. The minimal positive solution to the NARE (1.1), for medium size problems without the sparseness and low-ranked assumptions, has been studied recently by several authors, employing functional iterations, Newton's method, and the structure-preserving algorithm; see [1,3,4,12,13,14,15,16,17,22,23,26,27,30,31], and the references therein. Evidently, the applications associated with and the numerical solution to NAREs have attracted much attention in the past decade but this paper is the first on general large-scale NAREs.…”
