Comment:
Ubegrænset deltagerantal. 2. kvartal.

Prerequisites:
None

Academic preconditions:
The course Linear Algebra should be known. 

Course introduction
Large systems of linear equations may be solved more efficiently by means of iterative methods as compared to direct solvers. The aim of this course is to provide an overview over available methods and to introduce the student to the basic properties like convergence, parallelism and performance of these methods.

Expected learning outcome
Select, implement and apply iterative methods to solve large systems of linear equations. Analyze the performance of the methods and evaluate the accuracy of approximate solutions obtained. 
        

Subject overview
1. Consistence and convergence of iterative methods. 2. Linear iterative methods: Jacobi, Gauss-Seidel, and relaxation methods. Symmetric form of GS and SOR methods. Gradient, CG and preconditioned CG methods. 3. Krylov subspace iterations: Arnoldi, GMRES and Lanczos methods. 4. Parallelism in iterative methods. 5. Applications.
