# EPSCISS

EPSCISS = “ciss” - A contour integral eigensolver based on the Sakurai-Sugiura scheme.

## Notes

This solver is based on the numerical contour integration idea proposed initially by Sakurai and Sugiura [2003] and improved later by adding a Rayleigh-Ritz projection step [Sakurai and Tadano, 2007].

Contour integral methods are able to compute all eigenvalues lying inside a region of the complex plane. Use `EPSGetRG()` to specify the region. However, the computational cost is usually high because multiple linear systems must be solved. For this, we can use the `KSP` object inside `ST`, or several independent `KSP`s, see `EPSCISSSetUseST()`.

Details of the implementation in SLEPc can be found in [Maeda et al., 2016].
