A General Purpose Sparse Matrix Parallel Solvers Package

Abstract

A general purpose solver package for constructing and solving a range of sparse linear systems arising from discretization of PDEs on unstructured meshes is developed. Once the sparse symmetric complex matrix is constructed, it can be solved by either a preconditioned bi-conjugate gradient solver, a two-stage Cholesky LDLT factorization solver, or a hybrid solver combining the above two methods.
