pcg (4rheolef)

    template <class Matrix, class Vector, class Preconditioner, class Real>
    int pcg (const Matrix &A, Vector &x, const Vector &b,
      const Preconditioner &M, int &max_iter, Real &tol, odiststream *p_derr=0);

The simplest call to 'pcg' has the folling form:

    size_t max_iter = 100;
    double tol = 1e-7;
    int status = pcg(a, x, b, EYE, max_iter, tol, &derr);

pcg solves the symmetric positive definite linear system Ax=b using the Conjugate Gradient method.

The return value indicates convergence within max_iter (input) iterations (0), or no convergence within max_iter iterations (1). Upon successful return, output arguments have the following values:

x

approximate solution to Ax = b

max_iter

the number of iterations performed before the tolerance was reached

tol

the residual after the final iteration

pcg is an iterative template routine.

pcg follows the algorithm described on p. 15 in

The present implementation is inspired from IML++ 1.2 iterative method library, http://math.nist.gov/iml++.
