NAG Toolbox: nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk)
Purpose
nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk) computes the approximate solution of a real, symmetric or nonsymmetric, sparse system of linear equations applying a number of Jacobi iterations. It is expected that nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk) will be used as a preconditioner for the iterative solution of real sparse systems of equations.

Description
nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk) computes the
approximate solution of the real sparse system of linear equations
using
niter iterations of the Jacobi algorithm (see also
Golub and Van Loan (1996) and
Young (1971)):
where
and
.
nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk) can be used both for nonsymmetric and symmetric systems of equations. For symmetric matrices, either all nonzero elements of the matrix
can be supplied using coordinate storage (CS), or only the nonzero elements of the lower triangle of
, using symmetric coordinate storage (SCS) (see the
F11 Chapter Introduction).
It is expected that
nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk) will be used as a preconditioner for the iterative solution of real sparse systems of equations, using either the suite comprising the functions
nag_sparse_real_symm_basic_setup (f11gd),
nag_sparse_real_symm_basic_solver (f11ge) and
nag_sparse_real_symm_basic_diag (f11gf), for symmetric systems, or the suite comprising the functions
nag_sparse_real_gen_basic_setup (f11bd),
nag_sparse_real_gen_basic_solver (f11be) and
nag_sparse_real_gen_basic_diag (f11bf), for nonsymmetric systems of equations.

Accuracy
In general, the Jacobi method cannot be used on its own to solve systems of linear equations. The rate of convergence is bound by its spectral properties (see, for example,
Golub and Van Loan (1996)) and as a solver, the Jacobi method can only be applied to a limited set of matrices. One condition that guarantees convergence is strict diagonal dominance.
However, the Jacobi method can be used successfully as a preconditioner to a wider class of systems of equations. The Jacobi method has good vector/parallel properties, hence it can be applied very efficiently. Unfortunately, it is not possible to provide criteria which define the applicability of the Jacobi method as a preconditioner, and its usefulness must be judged for each case.
Further Comments
Timing
The time taken for a call to nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk) is proportional to .
Use of check
It is expected that a common use of nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk) will be as preconditioner for the iterative solution of real, symmetric or nonsymmetric, linear systems. In this situation, nag_sparse_real_gen_precon_jacobi (f11dk) is likely to be called many times. In the interests of both reliability and efficiency, you are recommended to set for the first of such calls, and to set for all subsequent calls.
