Abstract

The low-rank alternating direction implicit (LR-ADI) iteration is an effective method for solving large-scale Lyapunov equations. In the software library pyMOR, solutions to Lyapunov equations play an important role when reducing a model using the balanced truncation method. In this article we introduce the LR-ADI iteration as well as pyMOR, while focusing on its features which are relevant for integrating the iteration into the library. We compare the run time of the iteration's pure pyMOR implementation with those achieved by external libraries available within the pyMOR framework.
