11
|
alpar@9
|
12 colamd: an approximate minimum degree column ordering algorithm,
|
alpar@9
|
13 for LU factorization of symmetric or unsymmetric matrices,
|
alpar@9
|
14 QR factorization, least squares, interior point methods for
|
alpar@9
|
15 linear programming problems, and other related problems.

17 symamd: an approximate minimum degree ordering algorithm for
|
alpar@9
|
18 Cholesky factorization of symmetric matrices.

|
20 Purpose:
|
alpar@9
|
21
|
alpar@9
|
22 Colamd computes a permutation Q such that the Cholesky factorization
|
alpar@9
|
23 of (AQ)'(AQ) has less fill-in and requires fewer floating point
|
alpar@9
|
24 operations than A'A. This also provides a good ordering for sparse
|
alpar@9
|
25 partial pivoting methods, P(AQ) = LU, where Q is computed prior to
|
alpar@9
|
26 numerical factorization, and P is computed during numerical
|
alpar@9
|
27 factorization via conventional partial pivoting with row
|
alpar@9
|
28 interchanges. Colamd is the column ordering method used in SuperLU,
|
alpar@9
|
29 part of the ScaLAPACK library. It is also available as built-in
|
alpar@9
|
30 function in MATLAB Version 6, available from MathWorks, Inc.
|
alpar@9
|
31 (http://www.mathworks.com). This routine can be used in place of
|
alpar@9
|
32 colmmd in MATLAB.
|
alpar@9
|
33
|
alpar@9
|
34 Symamd computes a permutation P of a symmetric matrix A such that
|
alpar@9
|
35 the Cholesky factorization of PAP' has less fill-in and requires
|
alpar@9
|
36 fewer floating point operations than A. Symamd constructs a matrix
|
alpar@9
|
37 M such that M'M has the same nonzero pattern of A, and then orders
|
alpar@9
|
38 the columns of M using colmmd. The column ordering of M is then
|
alpar@9
|
39 returned as the row and column ordering P of A.
