Analysis of the convergence of the minimal and the orthogonal residual methods (Q2583224)

Two Krylov subspace methods, the minimal and orthogonal residual methods, are studied for solving linear systems. By using the Petrov-Galerkin condition, the residual norms of these methods are described in terms of the Krylov vectors, and the relationship between these norms is examined. The author proves that the convergence of these two methods is governed by the convergence of the Ritz singular values.
