Band-Toeplitz preconditioners for ill-conditioned Toeplitz systems
Abstract
Preconditioning for Toeplitz systems has been an active research area over the past few decades. Along this line of research, circulant preconditioners have been recently proposed for the Toeplitz-like system arising from discretizing fractional ...
Preconditioners for Ill-Conditioned Toeplitz Matrices
Abstract
This paper is concerned with the solution of systems of linear equations A _N x = b, where$$\{ A_N \} _{N \in \mathbb{N}}$$ denotes a sequence of positive definite Hermitian ill-conditioned Toeplitz matrices arising from a (real-valued) nonnegative ...
HIFIR: Hybrid Incomplete Factorization with Iterative Refinement for Preconditioning Ill-Conditioned and Singular Systems
We introduce a software package called Hybrid Incomplete Factorization with Iterative Refinement (HIFIR) for preconditioning sparse, unsymmetric, ill-conditioned, and potentially singular systems. HIFIR computes a hybrid incomplete factorization (HIF), ...
