A geometric view of Krylov subspace methods on singular systems.

From MaRDI portal





Three Krylov subspace methods, GMRES, restarted GMRES and restarted GCR, are analyzed in their behavior when applied to singular square nonsymmetric systems of linear equations. With an emphasis on geometric aspects, the quantities in the algorithms are decomposed into their components in the range of the coefficient matrix and its orthogonal complement. Extensions, new interpretations and new proofs of previous results of Brown and Walker on when these algorithms yield least-squares solutions and when they break down, i.e., terminate before such a solution is found, are given. The paper concludes with examples of singular systems arising in the discretization of two-point boundary value problems.
