Abstract

We consider the solution of n-by-n Toeplitz systems Anx = b by the preconditioned conjugate gradient method. The preconditioner Cn is the circulant matrix that minimizes ‖Bn − AnF over all circulant matrices Bn. We show that if the generating function f is a positive 2π-periodic continuous function, then the spectrum of the preconditioned system Cn−1An will be clustered around one. In particular, if the preconditioned conjugate gradient method is applied to solve the preconditioned system, the convergence rate is superlinear.
