3 Description
F11JSF solves a complex sparse Hermitian linear system of equations
using a preconditioned conjugate gradient method (see
Barrett et al. (1994)), or a preconditioned Lanczos method based on the algorithm SYMMLQ (see
Paige and Saunders (1975)). The conjugate gradient method is more efficient if
is positive definite, but may fail to converge for indefinite matrices. In this case the Lanczos method should be used instead. For further details see
Barrett et al. (1994).
F11JSF allows the following choices for the preconditioner:
- – no preconditioning;
- – Jacobi preconditioning (see Young (1971));
- – symmetric successive-over-relaxation (SSOR) preconditioning (see Young (1971)).
For incomplete Cholesky (IC) preconditioning see
F11JQF.
The matrix
is represented in symmetric coordinate storage (SCS) format (see
Section 2.1.2 in the F11 Chapter Introduction) in the arrays
A,
IROW and
ICOL. The array
A holds the nonzero entries in the lower triangular part of the matrix, while
IROW and
ICOL hold the corresponding row and column indices.

Section 3.3 in the Essential Introduction for details.
For environments where it might be inappropriate to halt program execution when an error is detected, the value
is recommended. If the output of error messages is undesirable, then the value
is recommended. Otherwise, if you are not familiar with this parameter, the recommended value is
.
When the value is used it is essential to test the value of IFAIL on exit.
On exit:

6 Error Indicators and Warnings
If on entry
or

X04AAF).
Errors or warnings detected by the routine:

On entry, the arrays
IROW and
ICOL fail to satisfy the following constraints:
- and , for ;
- , or and , for .
Therefore a nonzero element has been supplied which does not lie in the lower triangular part of
, is out of order, or has duplicate row and column indices. Call
F11ZPF to reorder and sum or remove duplicates.
On entry, the matrix has a zero diagonal element. Jacobi and SSOR preconditioners are not appropriate for this problem.
The required accuracy could not be obtained. However, a reasonable accuracy has been obtained and further iterations could not improve the result.
Required accuracy not obtained in
MAXITN iterations.
The preconditioner appears not to be positive definite.
The matrix of the coefficients appears not to be positive definite (conjugate gradient method only).
A serious error has occurred in an internal call to an auxiliary routine. Check all subroutine calls and array sizes. Seek expert help.
The matrix of the coefficients has a non-real diagonal entry, and is therefore not Hermitian.
7 Accuracy
On successful termination, the final residual
, where
, satisfies the termination criterion
The value of the final residual norm is returned in
RNORM.
The time taken by F11JSF for each iteration is roughly proportional to
NNZ. One iteration with the Lanczos method (SYMMLQ) requires a slightly larger number of operations than one iteration with the conjugate gradient method.
The number of iterations required to achieve a prescribed accuracy cannot easily be determined a priori, as it can depend dramatically on the conditioning and spectrum of the preconditioned matrix of the coefficients .
