Convergence of the Iterative Rational Krylov Algorithm

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

The Iterative Rational Krylov Algorithm (IRKA) of [8] is an interpolatory model reduction approach to the optimal H2\mathcal{H}_2 approximation problem. Even though the method has been illustrated to show rapid convergence in various examples, a proof of convergence has not been provided yet. In this note, we show that in the case of state-space symmetric systems, IRKA is a locally convergent fixed point iteration to a local minimum of the underlying H2\mathcal{H}_2 approximation problem.
