The High-index saddle dynamics (HiSD) method serves as an efficient tool for computing saddle points and constructing solution landscapes. Nevertheless, the conventional HiSD method often encounters slow convergence rates on ill-conditioned problems. To address this challenge, we propose an accelerated high-index saddle dynamics (A-HiSD) by incorporating the heavy ball method. We prove the linear stability theory of the continuous A-HiSD, and subsequently estimate the local convergence rate for the discrete A-HiSD. Our analysis demonstrates that the A-HiSD method exhibits a faster convergence rate compared to the conventional HiSD method, especially when dealing with ill-conditioned problems. We also perform various numerical experiments including the loss function of neural network to substantiate the effectiveness and acceleration of the A-HiSD method.
