## Abstract

The R-linear convergence of the NQZ algorithm for computing the H-spectral radius of a class of weakly irreducible nonnegative tensors is established by utilizing the directed graphs of tensors. Meanwhile, an upper bound for the root convergence factor R is derived and a general condition ensuring the linear convergence of the NQZ algorithm is provided.
