Summary
In this paper, we consider large‐scale nonsymmetric differential matrix Riccati equations with low‐rank right‐hand sides. These matrix equations appear in many applications such as control theory, transport theory, applied probability, and others. We show how to apply Krylov‐type methods such as the extended block Arnoldi algorithm to get low‐rank approximate solutions. The initial problem is projected onto small subspaces to get low dimensional nonsymmetric differential equations that are solved using the exponential approximation or via other integration schemes such as backward differentiation formula (BDF) or Rosenbrock method. We also show how these techniques can be easily used to solve some problems from the well‐known transport equation. Some numerical examples are given to illustrate the application of the proposed methods to large‐scale problems.
