The uses displacement equations to transform $T$ into Cauchy-like $\mathcal{C}$, which is known have low-numerical-rank off-diagonal blocks. Thus, we design fast scheme constructing hierarchically semiseparable (HSS) approximation where the HSS generators internal structures. Unlike classical methods, our employs sampling techniques together with matrix-vector...

The use of highly simplifies various essential steps in solutions, where fast operations on skinny matrix-vector products replace traditional complex ones dense or matrices. new methods thus significantly enhance the flexibility and efficiency using solutions. also consider a variety techniques, such as some graph methods, inclusion additional...
We present some superfast ($O((m+n)\log^{2}(m+n))$ complexity) and stable structured direct solvers for $m\times n$ Toeplitz least squares problems. Based on the displacement equation, a matrix $T$ is first transformed into Cauchy-like $\mathcal{C}$, which can be shown to have small off-diagonal numerical ranks when diagonal blocks are rectangular. generalize standard hierarchically semiseparable (HSS) representations rectangular ones, construct HSS approximation $\mathcal{C}$ in nearly...
In this paper we develop a new superfast solver for Toeplitz systems of linear equations. To solve many people use displacement equation methods. With structures, matrices can be transformed into Cauchy-like using the FFT or other trigonometric transformations. These have special property, that is, their off-diagonal blocks small numerical ranks. This low-rank property plays central role in our solver. It enables us to quickly approximate by structured called sequentially semiseparable (SSS)...

The distance to uncontrollability for a linear control system is the (in 2-norm) nearest uncontrollable system. We present an algorithm based on methods of Gu and Burke-Lewis-Overton that estimates any prescribed accuracy. new method requires O(n4 ) operations average, which improvement over previous have complexity O(n6 ), where n order Numerical experiments indicate reliable in practice.
Given a symmetric positive definite matrix A, we compute structured approximate Cholesky factorization $A\approx\mathbf{R}^{T}\mathbf{R}$ up to any desired accuracy, where $\mathbf{R}$ is an upper triangular hierarchically semiseparable (HSS) matrix. The stable, robust, and efficient. method compresses off-diagonal blocks with rank-revealing orthogonal decompositions. In the meantime, semidefinite terms are automatically implicitly added Schur complements in so that approximation...

More specifically, complexity is $O(r^{2}n\log n)+O(rn\log^{2}n)$, where $n$ order matrix. Such are often encountered in practical computations banded matrices, Toeplitz Fourier space), and certain discretized problems. They can be represented...

For $A$ low-rank property, construct hierarchically semiseparable (HSS) approximation and show how to quickly evaluate update its inertia in method. Unlike some existing HSS constructions, methods here do not require knowledge off-diagonal (numerical) ranks advance. Moreover, weak rank property slowly decaying singular...
For general symmetric positive definite (SPD) matrices, we present a framework for designing effective and robust black-box preconditioners via structured incomplete factorization. In scaling-and-compression strategy, off-diagonal blocks are first scaled on both sides (by the inverses of factors corresponding diagonal blocks) then compressed into low-rank approximations. ULV-type factorizations computed. A resulting prototype preconditioner is always definite. Generalizations to practical...
