Krylov Subspace
In linear algebra, the order-''r'' Krylov subspace generated by an ''n''-by-''n'' matrix ''A'' and a vector ''b'' of dimension ''n'' is the linear subspace spanned by the images of ''b'' under the first ''r'' powers of ''A'' (starting from A^0=I), that is, :\mathcal_r(A,b) = \operatorname \, \. Background The concept is named after Russian applied mathematician and naval engineer Alexei Krylov, who published a paper about it in 1931. Properties * \mathcal_r(A,b),A\mathcal_r(A,b)\subset \mathcal_(A,b). * Vectors \ are linearly independent until r, where p(A) is the minimal polynomial of A. Furthermore, there exists a b such that r_0 = \deg (A)/math>. * \mathcal_r(A,b) is a cyclic submodule generated by b of the torsion k /math>-module (k^n)^A, where k^n is the linear space on k. * k^n can be decomposed as the direct sum of Krylov subspaces. Use Krylov subspaces are used in algorithms for finding approximate solutions to high-dimensional linear algebra problems. Many linear dyn ...

Linear Algebra
Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerning linear equations such as: :a_1x_1+\cdots +a_nx_n=b, linear maps such as: :(x_1, \ldots, x_n) \mapsto a_1x_1+\cdots +a_nx_n, and their representations in vector spaces and through matrices. Linear algebra is central to almost all areas of mathematics. For instance, linear algebra is fundamental in modern presentations of geometry, including for defining basic objects such as lines, planes and rotations. Also, functional analysis, a branch of mathematical analysis, may be viewed as the application of linear algebra to spaces of functions. Linear algebra is also used in most sciences and fields of engineering, because it allows modeling many natural phenomena, and computing efficiently with such models. For nonlinear systems, which cannot be modeled with linear algebra, it is often used for dealing with first-order approximations, using the fact that the differential of a multivariate function at a point is the linear ma ...

Linear Independence
In the theory of vector spaces, a set of vectors is said to be if there is a nontrivial linear combination of the vectors that equals the zero vector. If no such linear combination exists, then the vectors are said to be . These concepts are central to the definition of dimension. A vector space can be of finite dimension or infinite dimension depending on the maximum number of linearly independent vectors. The definition of linear dependence and the ability to determine whether a subset of vectors in a vector space is linearly dependent are central to determining the dimension of a vector space. Definition A sequence of vectors \mathbf_1, \mathbf_2, \dots, \mathbf_k from a vector space is said to be ''linearly dependent'', if there exist scalars a_1, a_2, \dots, a_k, not all zero, such that :a_1\mathbf_1 + a_2\mathbf_2 + \cdots + a_k\mathbf_k = \mathbf, where \mathbf denotes the zero vector. This implies that at least one of the scalars is nonzero, say a_1\ne 0, an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Iterative Method
In computational mathematics, an iterative method is a Algorithm, mathematical procedure that uses an initial value to generate a sequence of improving approximate solutions for a class of problems, in which the ''n''-th approximation is derived from the previous ones. A specific implementation of an iterative method, including the Algorithm#Termination, termination criteria, is an algorithm of the iterative method. An iterative method is called convergent if the corresponding sequence converges for given initial approximations. A mathematically rigorous convergence analysis of an iterative method is usually performed; however, heuristic-based iterative methods are also common. In contrast, direct methods attempt to solve the problem by a finite sequence of operations. In the absence of rounding errors, direct methods would deliver an exact solution (for example, solving a linear system of equations A\mathbf=\mathbf by Gaussian elimination). Iterative methods are often the only cho ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
MINRES
The Minimal Residual Method or MINRES is a Krylov subspace method for the iterative solution of symmetric linear equation systems. It was proposed by mathematicians Christopher Conway Paige and Michael Alan Saunders in 1975. In contrast to the popular CG method, the MINRES method does not assume that the matrix is positive definite, only the symmetry of the matrix is mandatory. The popular GMRES method is an improved generalization of MINRES but requires much more memory. GMRES vs. MINRES The GMRES method is essentially a generalization of MINRES for arbitrary matrices. Both minimize the 2-norm of the residual and do the same calculations in exact arithmetic when the matrix is symmetric. MINRES is a short-recurrence method with a constant memory requirement, whereas GMRES requires storing the whole Krylov space, so its memory requirement is roughly proportional to the number of iterations. On the other hand, GMRES tends to suffer less from loss of orthogonality. Therefore, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Quasi Minimal Residual
Quasi (phonetics 'kwa - zee') is an American indie rock band formed in Portland, Oregon in 1993 by former spouses Sam Coomes (vocals, guitar, rocksichord, various keyboards, bass) and Janet Weiss (vocals and drums). Joanna Bolme performed and recorded with the group as a bassist from 2007 to 2011. History In 1990, Sam Coomes, Janet Weiss, and Brad Pedinov formed the band Motorgoat. The band released two self-released cassettes and one 7" single before dissolving in 1993. Coomes and Weiss then began recording as a duo in 1993 under the name Quasi. They played with various additional musicians in early live appearances, but eventually settled on playing live as a duo as well. They self-recorded and self-released a cassette and a CD in 1993. They recorded ''R&B Transmogrification'' in the Portland band Pond's basement recording studio and released it on Up Records in 1997. They released two more albums with Up: ''Featuring "Birds"'' in 1998 and '' Field Studies'' in 1999; both ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
BiCGSTAB
In numerical linear algebra, the biconjugate gradient stabilized method, often abbreviated as BiCGSTAB, is an iterative method developed by H. A. van der Vorst for the numerical solution of nonsymmetric linear systems. It is a variant of the biconjugate gradient method (BiCG) and has faster and smoother convergence than the original BiCG as well as other variants such as the conjugate gradient squared method (CGS). It is a Krylov subspace method. Unlike the original BiCG method, it doesn't require multiplication by the transpose of the system matrix. Algorithmic steps Unpreconditioned BiCGSTAB To solve a linear system , BiCGSTAB starts with an initial guess and proceeds as follows: # # Choose an arbitrary vector such that , e.g., . denotes the dot product of vectors # # # For ## ## ## ## ## ## ## If is accurate enough, then set and quit ## ## ## ## ## If is accurate enough, then quit ## Preconditioned BiCGSTAB Preconditioners are usually used to accelerat ...

GMRES
In mathematics, the generalized minimal residual method (GMRES) is an iterative method for the numerical solution of an indefinite nonsymmetric system of linear equations. The method approximates the solution by the vector in a Krylov subspace with minimal residual. The Arnoldi iteration is used to find this vector. The GMRES method was developed by Yousef Saad and Martin H. Schultz in 1986. It is a generalization and improvement of the MINRES method due to Paige and Saunders in 1975. The MINRES method requires that the matrix is symmetric, but has the advantage that it only requires handling of three vectors. GMRES is a special case of the DIIS method developed by Peter Pulay in 1980. DIIS is applicable to non-linear systems. The method Denote the Euclidean norm of any vector v by \, v\, . Denote the (square) system of linear equations to be solved by : Ax = b. \, The matrix ''A'' is assumed to be invertible of size ''m''-by-''m''. Furthermore, it is assumed that b is norm ...

Conjugate Gradient
In mathematics, the conjugate gradient method is an algorithm for the numerical solution of particular systems of linear equations, namely those whose matrix is positive-definite. The conjugate gradient method is often implemented as an iterative algorithm, applicable to sparse systems that are too large to be handled by a direct implementation or other direct methods such as the Cholesky decomposition. Large sparse systems often arise when numerically solving partial differential equations or optimization problems. The conjugate gradient method can also be used to solve unconstrained optimization problems such as energy minimization. It is commonly attributed to Magnus Hestenes and Eduard Stiefel, who programmed it on the Z4, and extensively researched it. The biconjugate gradient method provides a generalization to non-symmetric matrices. Various nonlinear conjugate gradient methods seek minima of nonlinear optimization problems.

Hermitian Matrix
In mathematics, a Hermitian matrix (or self-adjoint matrix) is a complex square matrix that is equal to its own conjugate transpose—that is, the element in the -th row and -th column is equal to the complex conjugate of the element in the -th row and -th column, for all indices and : or in matrix form: A \text \quad \iff \quad A = \overline . Hermitian matrices can be understood as the complex extension of real symmetric matrices. If the conjugate transpose of a matrix A is denoted by A^\mathsf, then the Hermitian property can be written concisely as Hermitian matrices are named after Charles Hermite, who demonstrated in 1855 that matrices of this form share a property with real symmetric matrices of always having real eigenvalues. Other, equivalent notations in common use are A^\mathsf = A^\dagger = A^\ast, although note that in quantum mechanics, A^\ast typically means the complex conjugate only, and not the conjugate transpose.
