Abstract

TOM00049 ACM (Typeset by SPi, Manila, Philippines) 1 of 16 February 23, 2011 38 Partitioned Triangular Tridiagonalization I MIROSLAV ROZLOZN K, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic GIL SHKLARSKI, Microsoft SIVAN TOLEDO, Tel-Aviv University We present a partitioned algorithm for reducing a symmetric matrix to a tridiagonal form, with partial pivoting. That is, the algorithm computes a factorization PA PT = LT L T , where, P is a permutation matrix, L is lower triangular with a unit diagonal and entries ™ magnitudes bounded by 1, and T is symmetric and tridiagonal. The algorithm is based on the basic (nonpartitioned) methods of Parlett and Reid and of Aasen. We show that our factorization algorithm is componentwise backward stable (provided that the growth factor is not too large), with a similar behavior to that of Aasen ™s basic algorithm.
