gmres

Generalized Minimum RESidual method

Calling Sequence

[x,flag,err,iter,res] = gmres(A,b,rstr,tol,maxi,M,x0)

Arguments

A

n-by-n matrix or function returning A*x

b

right hand side vector

x0

initial guess vector (default: zeros(n,1))

M

preconditioner: matrix or function returning M*x (In the first case, default: eye(n,n))

rstr

number of iterations between restarts (default: 10)

maxi

maximum number of iterations (default: n)

tol

error tolerance (default: 1e-6)

x

solution vector

err

final residual norm

iter

number of iterations performed

flag
0 =

gmres converged to the desired tolerance within maxi iterations

1 =

no convergence given maxi

res

residual vector

Description

GMRES

solves the linear system Ax=b using the Generalized Minimal residual method with restarts.

Details

of this algorithm are described in :
