A computational method is described for improving the accuracy of a given eigenvalue and its associated eigenvector, arrived at through a computation in a lower precision. The method to be described will increase the accuracy of the pair and do so at a relatively low cost. The technique used is similar to iterative refinement for the solution of a linear system; that is, through the factorization from the low-precision computation, an iterative algorithm is applied to increase the accuracy of the eigenpair. Extended precision arithmetic is used at critical points in the algorithm. The iterative algorithm requires O(n²) operations for each iteration.
