The method of Lanczos for solving systems of linear equations is implemented by using recurrence relationships between formal orthogonal polynomials. A drawback is that the computation of the coefficients of these recurrence relationships usually requires the use of the transpose of the matrix of the system. Due to the indirect addressing, this is a costly operation. In this paper, a new procedure for computing these coefficients is proposed. It is based on the recursive computation of the products of polynomials appearing in their expressions and it does not involve the transpose of the matrix. Moreover, our approach allows to implement simultaneously and at a low price a Lanczos-type product method such as the CGS or the BiCGSTAB.

Abstract
The method of Lanczos for solving systems of linear equations is implemented by using recurrence relationships between formal orthogonal polynomials. A drawback is that the computation of the coefficients of these recurrence relationships usually requires the use of the transpose of the matrix of the system. Due to the indirect addressing, this is a costly operation. In this paper, a new procedure for computing these coefficients is proposed. It is based on the recursive computation of the products of polynomials appearing in their expressions and it does not involve the transpose of the matrix. Moreover, our approach allows to implement simultaneously and at a low price a Lanczos-type product method such as the CGS or the BiCGSTAB.Pubblicazioni consigliate
