Scaled Toda-like flows Original Research Article

This paper discusses the class of isospectral flows image, where ring operator denotes the Hadamard product and [., .] is the Lie bracket. The presence of A allows arbitrary and independent scaling for each element in the matrix X. The time-1 mapping of the scaled Toda-like flow still enjoys a QR-like iteration. The scaled structure includes the classical Toda flow, Brockettʹs double bracket flow, and other interesting flows as special cases. Convergence proof is thus unified and simplified. The effect of scaling on a variety of applications is demonstrated by examples.
