Methods for solving spectral problems for multiparameter matrix pencils

Methods for solving the partial eigenproblem for multiparameter regular pencils of real matrices, which allow one to improve given approximations of an eigenvector and the associated point of the spectrum (both finite and infinite) are suggested. Ways of extending the methods to complex matrices, polynomial matrices, and coupled multiparameter problems are indicated.
