Abstract
Hierarchical matrices approximate a given matrix by a decomposition into low-rank submatrices that can be handled efficiently in factorized form. H2\mathcal {H}^2-matrices refine this representation following the ideas of fast multipole methods in order to achieve linear, i.e., optimal complexity for a variety of important algorithms.
The matrix multiplication, a key component of many more advanced numerical algorithms, has been a challenge: the only linear-time algorithms known so far either require the very special structure of HSS-matrices or need to know a suitable basis for all submatrices in advance.
In this article, a new and fairly general algorithm for multiplying H2\mathcal {H}^2-matrices in linear complexity with adaptively constructed bases is presented. The algorithm consists of two phases: first an intermediate representation with a generalized block structure is constructed, then this representation is re-compressed in order to match the structure prescribed by the application.
The complexity and accuracy are analyzed and numerical experiments indicate that the new algorithm can indeed be significantly faster than previous attempts.
期刊介绍:
All articles submitted to this journal are peer-reviewed. The AMS has a single blind peer-review process in which the reviewers know who the authors of the manuscript are, but the authors do not have access to the information on who the peer reviewers are.
This journal is devoted to research articles of the highest quality in computational mathematics. Areas covered include numerical analysis, computational discrete mathematics, including number theory, algebra and combinatorics, and related fields such as stochastic numerical methods. Articles must be of significant computational interest and contain original and substantial mathematical analysis or development of computational methodology.
