Guidelines
The work will require using and adapting newly developed codes for spin dynamics simulation. The main goal is to test the use of rational Krylov subspace methods to solve a large system of Schrödinger equations. The primary programming language will be MatLab. The work requires a literature review of the related topics.

The project offers the possibility to collaborate with the international members of the *-Lanczos (www.starlanczos.cz) and the MAGICA project (https://anr.fr/Project-ANR-20-CE29-0007). It is possible to organize a visit to one of the partner universities (Sorbonne or Bologna) in the framework of Erasmus+.

Preliminary scope of work
Thanks to a new approach, the solution of certain systems of Schrödinger equations can be expressed through the solution of a matrix equation. Since solving such an equation is particularly challenging when its size is large-to-huge, a model reduction approach is necessary, e.g., using Krylov subspaces.
This work will focus on systems arising in nuclear magnetic resonance applications. The final aim is to test well-known Rational Krylov subspace approaches to approximate the matrix equation solution. The work also requires collaborating with the Sorbonne University team that will provide the equation's data.
