Algorithms For Sparse Linear Systems

Large sparse linear systems of equations are ubiquitous inampnbspscience engineering and beyond. This open access monograph focuses on factorization algorithms for solving such systems.ampnbsp It presents classical techniques for complete factorizations that are used in sparse direct methods and discusses theampnbspcomputation of approximateampnbspdirect and inverse factorizations that are key to constructing generalpurpose algebraic preconditioners for iterative solvers.ampnbsp A unified
