[petsc-dev] Yet more KSPs

[Keita Teranishi]

Victor,

I am wondering if you have any plan to implement Induced Dimension Reduction (IDR(s) by Sonneveld and van Gijzen) in PETSc.

Thanks,

Is that hard? Basically a slightly different inner product. A-orthogonalization gives L2 minimal residuals. (Under the ordinary inner product the residuals are minimal in the A^{-1} norm)


It appears to outperform BiCGStab in enough of their tests


That might be true since BiCGS is based on the ordinary Lanczos / BiCG.

Hm. Why not do an A-orthogonal BicGstab. Hold on. Let me grab some scrap paper.....

Victor.
