How to Prove That a Preconditioner Cannot Be Superlinear

چکیده
In the general case of multilevel Toeplitz matrices, we recently proved that any multilevel circulant preconditioner is not superlinear (a cluster it may provide cannot be proper). The proof was based on the concept of quasi-equimodular matrices, although this concept does not apply, for example, to the sine-transform matrices. In this paper, with a new concept of partially equimodular matrices, we cover all trigonometric matrix algebras widely used in the literature. We propose a technique for proving the non-superlinearity of certain frequently used preconditioners for some representative sample multilevel matrices. At the same time, we show that these preconditioners are, in a certain sense, the best among the sublinear preconditioners (with only a general cluster) for multilevel Toeplitz matrices.

متن کاملSuperlinear PCG methods for symmetric Toeplitz systems
In this paper we deal with the solution, by means of preconditioned conjugate gradient (PCG) methods, of n × n symmetric Toeplitz systems An(f)x = b with nonnegative generating function f . Here the function f is assumed to be continuous and strictly positive, or is assumed to have isolated zeros of even order. In the first case we use as preconditioner the natural and the optimal τ approximati...

متن کاملA Theory of Secant Preconditioners
In this paper we analyze the use of structured quasi-Newton formulae as preconditioners of iterative linear methods when the inexact-Newton approach is employed for solving nonlinear systems of equations. We prove that superlinear convergence and bounded work per iteration is obtained if the preconditioners satisfy a Dennis-Moré condition. We develop a theory of LeastChange Secant Update precon...
