Description

f11jqf solves a complex sparse Hermitian linear system of equations

A x = b,

using a preconditioned conjugate gradient method (see Meijerink and Van der Vorst (1977)), or a preconditioned Lanczos method based on the algorithm SYMMLQ (see Paige and Saunders (1975)). The conjugate gradient method is more efficient if

A

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).

f11jqf uses the incomplete Cholesky factorization determined by f11jnf as the preconditioning matrix. A call to f11jqf must always be preceded by a call to f11jnf. Alternative preconditioners for the same storage scheme are available by calling f11jsf.

The matrix

A

and the preconditioning matrix

M

are represented in symmetric coordinate storage (SCS) format (see Section 2.1.2 in the F11 Chapter Introduction) in the arrays a, irow and icol, as returned from f11jnf. The array a holds the nonzero entries in the lower triangular parts of these matrices, while irow and icol hold the corresponding row and column indices.

10: $b (n)$ – Complex (Kind=nag_wp) arrayInput

11: $tol$ – Real (Kind=nag_wp)Input

On entry: the required tolerance. Let

x_{k}

denote the approximate solution at iteration

k

, and

r_{k}

the corresponding residual. The algorithm is considered to have converged at iteration

k

{‖r_{k}‖}_{\infty} \leq τ \times ({‖b‖}_{\infty} + {‖A‖}_{\infty} {‖x_{k}‖}_{\infty}) .

tol \leq 0.0

τ = \max \sqrt{ε}, 10 ε, \sqrt{n} ε

is used, where

ε

is the machine precision. Otherwise

τ = \max (tol, 10 ε, \sqrt{n} ε)

is used.

Constraint:

tol < 1.0

12: $maxitn$ – IntegerInput

On entry: the maximum number of iterations allowed.

18: $ifail$ – IntegerInput/Output

On entry: ifail must be set to

0

- 1 ​ or ​ 1

. If you are unfamiliar with this argument you should refer to Section 3.4 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for details.

For environments where it might be inappropriate to halt program execution when an error is detected, the value

- 1 ​ or ​ 1

is recommended. If the output of error messages is undesirable, then the value

1

is recommended. Otherwise, if you are not familiar with this argument, the recommended value is

0

. When the value $- 1 or 1$ is used it is essential to test the value of ifail on exit.

On exit:

ifail = 0

unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

6

Error Indicators and Warnings

If on entry

ifail = 0

- 1

, explanatory error messages are output on the current error message unit (as defined by x04aaf).

Errors or warnings detected by the routine:

$ifail = 1$

On entry,	$method \neq'CG'$ or $'SYMMLQ'$ ,
or	$n < 1$ ,
or	$nnz < 1$ ,
or	$nnz > n \times (n + 1) / 2$ ,
or	la too small,
or	$tol \geq 1.0$ ,
or	$maxitn < 1$ ,
or	lwork too small.

$ifail = 2$: On entry, the SCS representation of $A$ is invalid. Further details are given in the error message. Check that the call to f11jqf has been preceded by a valid call to f11jnf, and that the arrays a, irow, and icol have not been corrupted between the two calls.

$ifail = 3$: On entry, the SCS representation of $M$ is invalid. Further details are given in the error message. Check that the call to f11jqf has been preceded by a valid call to f11jnf, and that the arrays a, irow, icol, ipiv and istr have not been corrupted between the two calls.

$ifail = 4$: The required accuracy could not be obtained. However, a reasonable accuracy has been obtained and further iterations could not improve the result.

$ifail = 5$: Required accuracy not obtained in maxitn iterations.

$ifail = 6$: The preconditioner appears not to be positive definite.

$ifail = 7$: The matrix of the coefficients appears not to be positive definite (conjugate gradient method only).

$ifail = 8$: A serious error has occurred in an internal call to an auxiliary routine. Check all subroutine calls and array sizes. Seek expert help.

$ifail = - 99$: An unexpected error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.
See Section 3.9 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.

$ifail = - 399$: Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 3.8 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.

$ifail = - 999$: Dynamic memory allocation failed.
See Section 3.7 in How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation for further information.

Accuracy

On successful termination, the final residual

r_{k} = b - A x_{k}

, where

k = itn

, satisfies the termination criterion

{‖r_{k}‖}_{\infty} \leq τ \times ({‖b‖}_{\infty} + {‖A‖}_{\infty} {‖x_{k}‖}_{\infty}) .

The value of the final residual norm is returned in rnorm.

Parallelism and Performance

f11jqf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.

f11jqf makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.

Please consult the X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

Further Comments

The time taken by f11jqf for each iteration is roughly proportional to the value of nnzc returned from the preceding call to f11jnf. 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

\bar{A} = M^{- 1} A
