Abstract
In this talk, we consider a modified Douglas splitting method for a class of differential matrix equations, including differential Lyapunov and differential Riccati equations. The method we consider is based on a natural three-term splitting of the equations. The implementation of the algorithm requires only the solution of a linear algebraic system with multiple right-hand sides in each time step. It is proved that the method is convergent of order two and it preserves the symmetry and positive semidefiniteness of solutions of differential Lyapunov equations. Moreover, we show how the method can be handled in a low-rank setting for large-scale computations. We also provide a theoretical a priori error analysis for the low-rank algorithms. Numerical results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis.
