Theory and Applications of Orthogonal Decompositions

Many numerical algorithms in applications require good approximations to the largest or smallest singular values and corresponding singular subspaces associated with a nearly rank-deficient m X n matrix A. Some of these applications also involve updating and downdating. The singular value decomposition is not practical for some problems due to real-time or storage constraints. However, the needed information can often be obtained by a more general orthogonal decomposition of the matrix A = UTVT, which is a product of three matrices: an orthogonal matrix U, a middle matrix T, and another orthogonal matrix V. We consider fast and reliable methods based on orthogonal decompositions to solve problems arising in signal processing, spectroscopy, and information retrieval applications.
