GMRES is a popular iterative method for the solution of large linear systems of equations with a square nonsymmetric matrix. The method generates a Krylov subspace in which an approximate solution is determined. We present modifications of the GMRES and the closely related RRGMRES methods that allow augmentation of the Krylov subspaces generated by these methods by a user-supplied subspace. We ...

The sideways Heat equation (SHE) is a model of the problem of determining the temperature on the surface of a body from the interior measurements. Mathematically it can be formulated as a noncharacteristic Cauchy problem for a parabolic partial differential equation. This problem is severely ill-posed: the solution does not depend continuously on the data. We use a preconditioned Generalized Mi...

The GMRES method is a popular iterative method for the solution of large linear systems of equations with a nonsymmetric nonsingular matrix. However, little is known about the behavior of this method when it is applied to the solution of nonsymmetric linear ill-posed problems with a right-hand side that is contaminated by errors. We show that when the associated error-free right-hand side lies ...
