Some properties of generalized \(K\)-centrosymmetric \(H\)-matrices (Q2480915)

The definitions of \(H\)-matrices and their basic properties are reviewed. Some properties of the reduced form of generalized \(K\)-centrosymmetric \(H\)-matrices are investigated and the square root of a generalized \(K\)-centrosymmetric \(H\)-matrix is discussed. Exploiting these properties effective algorithms are developed for different computational tasks: for constructing an incomplete \(LU\) factorization of a generalized \(K\)-centrosymmetric \(H\)-matrix with positive diagonal entries, for solving linear systems with a \(K\)-centrosymmetric \(H\)-matrix as a coefficient matrix, and for computing the principal square root of a generalized \(K\)-centrosymmetric \(H\)-matrix with positive diagonal entries.
