An Efficient Block Preconditioner for a Class of Complex Symmetric Linear Systems
摘要
For solving a class of complex symmetric linear systems, an efficient block preconditioner based on a novel matrix splitting is developed. Relative to several existing preconditioners, the proposed one provides a much closer approximation to the coefficient matrix. We then discuss the convergence behavior of the corresponding iteration method and analyze the spectral properties of the preconditioned matrix. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the new preconditioner in comparison with existing methods.
