Block GMRES Method with Inexact Breakdowns and Deflated Restarting

Block GMRES Method with Inexact Breakdowns and Deflated Restarting

We consider the solution of large linear systems with multiple right-hand sides using a block GMRES approach. We introduce a new algorithm that effectively handles the situation of almost rank deficient block generated by the block Arnoldi procedure and that enables the recycling of spectral information at restart. The first feature is inherited from an algorithm introduced by Robbé and Sadkane...

GMRES with Deflated Restarting

A modification is given of the GMRES iterative method for nonsymmetric systems of linear equations. The new method deflates eigenvalues using Wu and Simon’s thick restarting approach. It has the efficiency of implicit restarting, but is simpler and does not have the same numerical concerns. The deflation of small eigenvalues can greatly improve the convergence of restarted GMRES. Also, it is de...

Global GMRES with Deflated Restarting for Families of Shifted Linear Systems

Many problems in science and engineering field require the solution of shifted linear systems with multiple right hand sides and multiple shifts. To solve such systems efficiently, the implicitly restarted global GMRES algorithm is extended in this paper. However, the shift invariant property could no longer hold over the augmented global Krylov subspace due to adding the harmonic Ritz matrices...

Deflated Restarting for Matrix Functions

We investigate an acceleration technique for restarted Krylov subspace methods for computing the action of a function of a large sparse matrix on a vector. Its effect is to ultimately deflate a specific invariant subspace of the matrix which most impedes the convergence of the restarted approximation process. An approximation to the subspace to be deflated is successively refined in the course ...
