f11duf (complex_​gen_​solve_​bdilu)

1 Purpose

f11duf solves a complex sparse non-Hermitian system of linear equations, represented in coordinate storage format, using a restarted generalized minimal residual (RGMRES), conjugate gradient squared (CGS), stabilized bi-conjugate gradient (Bi-CGSTAB), or transpose-free quasi-minimal residual (TFQMR) method, with block Jacobi or additive Schwarz preconditioning.

3 Description

f11duf solves a complex sparse non-Hermitian linear system of equations
Ax=b,  
using a preconditioned RGMRES (see Saad and Schultz (1986)), CGS (see Sonneveld (1989)), Bi-CGSTAB() (see Van der Vorst (1989) and Sleijpen and Fokkema (1993)), or TFQMR (see Freund and Nachtigal (1991) and Freund (1993)) method.
f11duf uses the incomplete (possibly overlapping) block LU factorization determined by f11dtf as the preconditioning matrix. A call to f11duf must always be preceded by a call to f11dtf. Alternative preconditioners for the same storage scheme are available by calling f11dqf or f11dsf.
The matrix A, and the preconditioning matrix M, are represented in coordinate storage (CS) format (see Section 2.1.1 in the F11 Chapter Introduction) in the arrays a, irow and icol, as returned from f11dtf. The array a holds the nonzero entries in these matrices, while irow and icol hold the corresponding row and column indices.
f11duf is a Black Box routine which calls f11brf, f11bsf and f11btf. If you wish to use an alternative storage scheme, preconditioner, or termination criterion, or require additional diagnostic information, you should call these underlying routines directly.

25: ifail Integer Input/Output
On entry: ifail must be set to 0, -1 or 1. If you are unfamiliar with this argument you should refer to Section 4 in the Introduction to the NAG Library FL Interface for details.
For environments where it might be inappropriate to halt program execution when an error is detected, the value -1 or 1 is recommended. If the output of error messages is undesirable, then the value 1 is recommended. Otherwise, if you are not familiar with this argument, the recommended value is 0. When the value -1 or 1 is used it is essential to test the value of ifail on exit.
On exit: ifail=0 unless the routine detects an error or a warning has been flagged (see Section 6).

Check that a, irow, icol, ipivp, ipivq, istr and idiag have not been corrupted between calls to f11dtf and f11duf.
On entry, icolvalue=value and n=value.
Constraint: 1icolin, for i=1,2,,nnz.
Check that a, irow, icol, ipivp, ipivq, istr and idiag have not been corrupted between calls to f11dtf and f11duf.
On entry, irowvalue=value and n=value.

Check that a, irow, icol, ipivp, ipivq, istr and idiag have not been corrupted between calls to f11dtf and f11duf.
ifail=3
The CS representation of the preconditioner is invalid.
Check that a, irow, icol, ipivp, ipivq, istr and idiag have not been corrupted between calls to f11dtf and f11duf.
ifail=4
The required accuracy could not be obtained. However, a reasonable accuracy may have been achieved. You should check the output value of rnorm for acceptability. This error code usually implies that your problem has been fully and satisfactorily solved to within or close to the accuracy available on your system. Further iterations are unlikely to improve on this situation.
ifail=5
The solution has not converged after value iterations.
ifail=6
Algorithmic breakdown. A solution is returned, although it is possible that it is completely inaccurate.
ifail=-99
An unexpected error has been triggered by this routine. Please contact NAG.
See Section 7 in the Introduction to the NAG Library FL Interface for further information.
ifail=-399
Your licence key may have expired or may not have been installed correctly.
See Section 8 in the Introduction to the NAG Library FL Interface for further information.
ifail=-999
Dynamic memory allocation failed.
See Section 9 in the Introduction to the NAG Library FL Interface for further information.

7 Accuracy

On successful termination, the final residual rk=b-Axk, where k=itn, satisfies the termination criterion
rkτ×b+Axk.  
The value of the final residual norm is returned in rnorm.

8 Parallelism and Performance

f11duf is threaded by NAG for parallel execution in multithreaded implementations of the NAG Library.
f11duf makes calls to BLAS and/or LAPACK routines, which may be threaded within the vendor library used by this implementation. Consult the documentation for the vendor library for further information.
Please consult the X06 Chapter Introduction for information on how to control and interrogate the OpenMP environment used within this routine. Please also consult the Users' Note for your implementation for any additional implementation-specific information.

9 Further Comments

The time taken by f11duf for each iteration is roughly proportional to the value of nnzc returned from the preceding call to f11dtf.
The number of iterations required to achieve a prescribed accuracy cannot be easily determined a priori, as it can depend dramatically on the conditioning and spectrum of the preconditioned coefficient matrix A¯=M-1A.

10 Example

This example program reads in a sparse matrix A and a vector b. It calls f11dtf, with the array lfill=0 and the array dtol=0.0, to compute an overlapping incomplete LU factorization. This is then used as an additive Schwarz preconditioner on a call to f11duf which uses the RGMRES method to solve Ax=b.
