Expand description

Ergonomic stationary eigenproblems solved by Perron iteration.

Infinite-horizon control problems without discounting have a one-parameter translation invariance and therefore no unique solution of sup_u { f + L^u V } = 0. Their exact T -> infinity limit is instead the principal (Perron) eigenpair of a linear operator.

This module provides a symmetric-operator contract and a power-iteration solver for that eigenpair. It is deliberately separate from crate::numeric::finite_difference::elliptic, which solves the discounted elliptic problem -T V + r V = source with r > 0. Those two problems coincide only when an explicit normalization is imposed.

See docs/src/reference/soc_exact.md for the derivation and the sign convention.
