A block lower triangular preconditioner for a class of complex symmetric system of linear equations

Abstract

We present a block lower triangular (BLT) preconditioner to accelerate the convergence of nthe Krylov subspace iterative methods, such as generalized minimal residual (GMRES), for solving a broad class of complex symmetric system of linear equations. We analyze the eigenvalues distribution of preconditioned coefficient matrix. Numerical experiments are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the BLT preconditioner.
