Notes

complex_herm_solve_ilu solves a complex sparse Hermitian linear system of equations

using a preconditioned conjugate gradient method (see Meijerink and Van der Vorst (1977)), or a preconditioned Lanczos method based on the algorithm SYMMLQ (see Paige and Saunders (1975)). The conjugate gradient method is more efficient if is positive definite, but may fail to converge for indefinite matrices. In this case the Lanczos method should be used instead. For further details see Barrett et al. (1994).

complex_herm_solve_ilu uses the incomplete Cholesky factorization determined by complex_herm_precon_ichol() as the preconditioning matrix. A call to complex_herm_solve_ilu must always be preceded by a call to complex_herm_precon_ichol(). Alternative preconditioners for the same storage scheme are available by calling complex_herm_solve_jacssor().

The matrix and the preconditioning matrix are represented in symmetric coordinate storage (SCS) format (see the F11 Introduction) in the arrays , and , as returned from complex_herm_precon_ichol(). The array holds the nonzero entries in the lower triangular parts of these matrices, while and hold the corresponding row and column indices.
