Abstract

We prove an 0(log n) bound for the expected value of the logarithm of the componentwise (and, a fortiori, the mixed) condition number of a random sparse n X n matrix. As a consequence, small bounds on the average loss of accuracy for t riangular linear systems follow. © 2009 Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.
