Solving a block tridiagonal system with diagonal perturbations
Say we have a block tridiagonal matrix, $T \in \mathbb{R}^{NL \times NL}$, with constant off diagonals, $\mathbf{B} \in \mathbb{R}^{L\times L}$, given by
$$
T = \begin{bmatrix} \mathbf{A}_1 & \...

For the purposes of solving linear equations, is there a fast decomposition that works for all Hermitian matrices?
Let $A$ be an arbitrary Hermitian matrix. Is there a way of efficiently factorizing $A$ for the purposes of solving $Ax = b$ for arbitrary $b$?
There are two decompositions I'm aware of that nearly ...

Square root of a large sparse symmetric positive definite matrix
I am trying to calculate
$$Y = A^{\frac 12} X$$
where $A$ is a very large and sparse positive definite matrix, say, $10^4 \times 10^4$. Matrix $X$ is known and, say, $10^4 \times 100$. Is there any ...

Recurrence Equation and Matrix Convergence
To begin with, let us give the conceptual background needed to expose the problem. First of all, we shall consider the set $\mathbb{L}^{n} = \mathbb{R}^{n}_{\geq0} = \{\overrightarrow{x}\in\mathbb{R}^{...

What is the time complexity of truncated SVD?
Full SVD, on an $m \times n$ matrix $A$, [U,S,V] = svd(A), would cost $O(m^2n + mn^2 + n^3)$ time. But what is the time complexity if we only need the $k$ largest ...
