f11duc solves a complex sparse non-Hermitian system of linear equations, represented in coordinate storage format, using a restarted generalized minimal residual (RGMRES), conjugate gradient squared (CGS), stabilized bi-conjugate gradient (Bi-CGSTAB), or transpose-free quasi-minimal residual (TFQMR) method, with block Jacobi or additive Schwarz preconditioning.

2 Specification

The function may be called by the names: f11duc, nag_sparse_complex_gen_solve_bdilu or nag_sparse_nherm_precon_bdilu_solve.

3 Description

f11duc solves a complex sparse non-Hermitian linear system of equations

A x = b,

using a preconditioned RGMRES (see Saad and Schultz (1986)), CGS (see Sonneveld (1989)), Bi-CGSTAB(

ℓ

) (see Van der Vorst (1989) and Sleijpen and Fokkema (1993)), or TFQMR (see Freund and Nachtigal (1991) and Freund (1993)) method.

f11duc uses the incomplete (possibly overlapping) block

L U

factorization determined by f11dtc as the preconditioning matrix. A call to f11duc must always be preceded by a call to f11dtc. Alternative preconditioners for the same storage scheme are available by calling f11dqc or f11dsc.

The matrix

A

, and the preconditioning matrix

M

, are represented in coordinate storage (CS) format (see Section 2.1.1 in the F11 Chapter Introduction) in the arrays a, irow and icol, as returned from f11dtc. The array a holds the nonzero entries in these matrices, while irow and icol hold the corresponding row and column indices.

f11duc is a Black Box function which calls f11brc, f11bsc and f11btc. If you wish to use an alternative storage scheme, preconditioner, or termination criterion, or require additional diagnostic information, you should call these underlying functions directly.

7 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.

8 Parallelism and Performance

Background information to multithreading can be found in the Multithreading documentation.

f11duc is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.

f11duc 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 function. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

9 Further Comments

The time taken by f11duc for each iteration is roughly proportional to the value of nnzc returned from the preceding call to f11dtc.

The number of iterations required to achieve a prescribed accuracy cannot be easily determined a priori, as it can depend dramatically on the conditioning and spectrum of the preconditioned coefficient matrix

\bar{A} = M^{−1} A

10 Example

This example program reads in a sparse matrix

A

and a vector

b

. It calls f11dtc, with the array

lfill = 0

and the array

dtol = 0.0

, to compute an overlapping incomplete

L U

factorization. This is then used as an additive Schwarz preconditioner on a call to f11duc which uses the RGMRES method to solve

A x = b
