chsolve

chsolve — sparse Cholesky solver

Calling sequence

sol=chsolve(spcho,rhs)  

Parameters

spcho : list containing the Cholesky factors in coded form returned by chfact
rhs, sol : full column vectors

Description

sol=chsolve(spcho,rhs) computes the solution of sol=A*rhs, with A a symmetric sparse positive definite matrix. This function is based on the Ng-Peyton programs (ORNL). See the Fortran programs for a complete description of the variables in spcho.

Examples



A=sprand(20,20,0.1);
A=A*A'+eye();  
spcho=chfact(A);
sol=(1:20)';rhs=A*sol;
spcho=chfact(A);
chsolve(spcho,rhs)
