Research direction

The issue identifies ArnoldiMethod.jl 0.3 and Graphs.jl as relevant dependencies; first locate where SR() and the Julia requirement are declared or used. Replace the dependency's SR() usage with :SR, remove the dependency if no other use remains, and verify whether the Julia requirement must be raised to 1.6.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In ArnoldiMethod.jl 0.3 you can use :SR as a symbol instead of the struct SR(). That allows you to drop the dependency here.

However, may need to bump the julia requirement to 1.6 cause that's what ArnoldiMethod.jl has now (well, Graphs.jl too)
