Abstract

For solving a class of complex symmetric system of linear equations, we apply the minimum residual technique to the modified Hermitian and skew-Hermitian splitting (MHSS) iteration scheme and propose an iteration method referred to as minimum residual MHSS (MRMHSS) iteration method. Compared with the classical MHSS method, the MRMHSS method has two more iteration parameters, which can be automatically and easily computed. Then, some properties of the MRMHSS iteration method are carefully studied. Finally, we use four examples to test the performance of the MRMHSS iteration method by comparing its numerical results with three other iteration methods.
