Factorization to sparse matrices
$\newcommand{\lrank}{\operatorname{lrank}}$
$\newcommand{\rank}{\operatorname{rank}}$
Given a matrix $A$, we can define its Hamming weight, $w(A)$, as the number of non-zero elements in it.
Now, given ...

How can one construct a sparse null space basis using recursive LU decomposition?
Given an $m$ by $n$ matrix $A$ I'm familiar with the standard method to compute a basis for the null space of $A$ by computing a QR factorization of $A^T$. If $A$ is large and sparse, we can use ...
