Writing a GenericArpack library in Julia.
David Gleich
Arpack is a library for computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a linear operator. It has been used in many technical computing packages. The goal of the GenericArpack.jl
package is to create a Julia translation of Arpack. Right now, the Julia GenericArpack.jl
methods produce bitwise identical results to the Arpack_jll
methods for Float64 types in all testcases. The new library has zero dependency on BLAS and supports element types beyond those in Arpack, such as DoubleFloats.jl
.
