Title

The Art And Science Of Matrix Preconditioning-A Review

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to present a brief review of a number of techniques for matrix preconditioning. Preconditioners are almost always needed when solving large problem by using the Method of Moments (MoM) [1], since the matrices associated with such problems are often ill-conditioned, and iterative techniques such as the Conjugate Gradient and GMRES algorithms either fail to converge at all or are very slowly converging [2-11]. While a wide variety of preconditioners have been proposed by researchers in Matrix Methods to address the problem of slow convergence of ill-conditioned matrices, a 'magic bullet' that is robust enough to handle all types of ill-conditioned matrices has yet to be found. Consequently, this field is currently very active as a quick literature search will readily reveal.
