Tensor product approach to modelling epidemics on networks

To improve mathematical models of epidemics it is essential to move beyond the traditional assumption of homogeneous well--mixed population and involve more precise information on the network of contacts and transport links by which a stochastic process of the epidemics spreads. In general, the number of states of the network grows exponentially with its size, and a master equation description suffers from the curse of dimensionality. Almost all methods widely used in practice are versions of the stochastic simulation algorithm (SSA), which is notoriously known for its slow convergence. In this paper we numerically solve the chemical master equation for an SIR model on a general network using recently proposed tensor product algorithms. In numerical experiments we show that tensor product algorithms converge much faster than SSA and deliver more accurate results, which becomes particularly important for uncovering the probabilities of rare events, e.g. for number of infected people to exceed a (high) threshold.

One-site density matrix renormalization group and alternating minimum energy algorithm

Given in the title are two algorithms to compute the extreme eigenstate of a high-dimensional Hermitian matrix using the tensor train (TT) / matrix product states (MPS) representation. Both methods empower the traditional alternating direction scheme with the auxiliary (e.g. gradient) information, which substantially improves the convergence in many difficult cases. Being conceptually close, these methods have different derivation, implementation, theoretical and practical properties. We emphasize the differences, and reproduce the numerical example to compare the performance of two algorithms.

Quasioptimality of maximum-volume cross interpolation of tensors

We consider a cross interpolation of high-dimensional arrays in the tensor train format. We prove that the maximum-volume choice of the interpolation sets provides the quasioptimal interpolation accuracy, that differs from the best possible accuracy by the factor which does not grow exponentially with dimension. For nested interpolation sets we prove the interpolation property and propose greedy cross interpolation algorithms. We justify the theoretical results and test the speed and accuracy of the proposed algorithm with convincing numerical experiments.

Computation of extreme eigenvalues in higher dimensions using block tensor train format

We consider an approximate computation of several minimal eigenpairs of large Hermitian matrices which come from high--dimensional problems. We use the tensor train format (TT) for vectors and matrices to overcome the curse of dimensionality and make storage and computational cost feasible. Applying a block version of the TT format to several vectors simultaneously, we compute the low--lying eigenstates of a system by minimization of a block Rayleigh quotient performed in an alternating fashion for all dimensions. For several numerical examples, we compare the proposed method with the deflation approach when the low--lying eigenstates are computed one-by-one, and also with the variational algorithms used in quantum physics.

Alternating minimal energy methods for linear systems in higher dimensions. Part I: SPD systems

We introduce a family of numerical algorithms for the solution of linear system in higher dimensions with the matrix and right hand side given and the solution sought in the tensor train format. The proposed methods are rank--adaptive and follow the alternating directions framework, but in contrast to ALS methods, in each iteration a tensor subspace is enlarged by a set of vectors chosen similarly to the steepest descent algorithm. The convergence is analyzed in the presence of approximation errors and the geometrical convergence rate is estimated and related to the one of the steepest descent. The complexity of the presented algorithms is linear in the mode size and dimension and the convergence demonstrated in the numerical experiments is comparable to the one of the DMRG--type algorithm.

Superfast solution of linear convolutional Volterra equations using QTT approximation

We address a linear fractional differential equation and develop effective solution methods using algorithms for inversion of triangular Toeplitz matrices and the recently proposed QTT format. The inverses of such matrices can be computed by the divide and conquer and modified Bini's algorithms, for which we present the versions with the QTT approximation. We also present an efficient formula for the shift of vectors given in QTT format, which is used in the divide and conquer algorithm. As the result, we reduce the complexity of inversion from the fast Fourier level $O(n\log n)$ to the speed of superfast Fourier transform, i.e., $O(\log^2 n).$ The results of the paper are illustrated by numerical examples.
