Abstract

The problem of computing approximate eigenvalues and eigen-functions of the problem △u = λu in R, u = 0 on B = ∂R, may be stated in terms of a parametric semi-infinite problem, the parameter of which has to be adapted in such a way that a certain (nonlinear and nondiffe-rentiable) function is minimized. Some numerical methods for achieving this minimization efficiently will be discussed.
