The theory of Newton’s method on manifolds is applied to this problem, and the resulting Newton equations are interpreted as block versions of the Jacobi–Davidson correction equation for the generalized eigenvalue problem.508 pagesMathematical System Theory: Festschrift in Honor of Uwe Helmke on the Occasion of his Sixtieth Birthday20132015-12-07
