ADAPTIVE BLOCK QMRIOM（q）METHOD FOR SOLVING UNSYMMETRIC LINEAR SYSTEMS WITH MULTI

Many applications require the solution of large un-symmetric linear systems with multiple right-hand sides.Instead of applying an iterative method to each of these systems individually,it is often more efficient to use a block version of the method that generates iterates for all the systems simultaneously.This paper proposes a new adaptive block QMR version based on the incomplete or-thogomalization method(IOM(q))for solving large multi-ple nusymmetric linear systems.How to incorporate de-flation to drop comverged linear systems,and how to delete linearly and almost liearly dependent vectors in the underlying block Krylov sequences are discussed.Nu-merical experiments show that the new adaptive block method has better practical performance and less compu-tational cost and CPU time than block GMRES and other proposed methods for the solution of systems with multi- ple right-hand sides.
