Sor and related methods forp-cyclic systems

The paper is concerned with \(p\)-cyclic linear systems and with the properties obtained when the system is partitioned into \(k\)-cyclic systems, \(k\leq p\). Under sign conditions on the eigenvalues of the \(k\)-th power of the associated Jacobi iteration matrix, it is shown that the fastest convergence (resp. the smallest spectral radius) of the successive overrelaxation (SOR) method is obtained for a partition into 2-cyclic systems. This fact itself was known earlier, but the authors believe that their proof is simpler and more straightforward. Moreover, it facilitates a quantitative analysis of the convergence rate. Finally, numerical experiments are carried out to investigate the symmetric SOR scheme with respect to a partition of the system.
