Abstract
An extremely scalable linear-algebraic algorithm was developed for quantum material simulation (electronic state calculation) with 10 atoms or 100-nm-scale materials. The mathematical foundation is generalized shifted linear equations ((zB - A) x = b), instead of conventional generalized eigenvalue equations. The method has a highly parallelizable mathematical structure. The fundamental theory is mathematical and is applicable also to other scientific fields. The benchmark shows an extreme strong scaling and a qualified time-to-solution on the full system of the K computer. The method was demonstrated in a real material research for ultra-flexible (organic) devices, key devices of next-generation IoT products. The present paper shows that an innovative scalable algorithm for a real research can appear by the co-design among application, algorithm and architecture.
