Then we introduce the matrix versions of biconjugate residual (BICR), biconjugate gradients stabilized (Bi-CGSTAB), and conjugate residual squared (CRS) algorithms. This study’s primary motivation is to avoid the increase of computational complexity by using the Kronecker product and vectorization operation. Finally, we offer several numerical examples to show the effectiveness of the derived algorithms.","datePublished":"2021-04-28T00:00:00Z","dateModified":"2021-04-28T00:00:00Z","pageStart":"1","pageEnd":"18","license":"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","sameAs":"https://doi.org/10.1186/s13662-021-03381-1","keywords":["Generalized Lyapunov equation","Cayley transformation","BICR algorithm","Bi-CGSTAB algorithm","CRS algorithm","Difference and Functional Equations","Mathematics","general","Analysis","Functional Analysis","Ordinary Differential Equations","Partial Differential Equations"],"image":["https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Figa_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Figb_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Figc_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Figd_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Fige_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Figf_HTML.png","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Fig1_HTML.jpg","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Fig2_HTML.jpg","https://media.springernature.com/lw1200/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Fig3_HTML.jpg"],"isPartOf":{"name":"Advances in Difference Equations","issn":["1687-1847"],"volumeNumber":"2021","@type":["Periodical","PublicationVolume"]},"publisher":{"name":"Springer International Publishing","logo":{"url":"https://www.springernature.com/app-sn/public/images/logo-springernature.png","@type":"ImageObject"},"@type":"Organization"},"author":[{"name":"Juan Zhang","affiliation":[{"name":"Xiangtan University","address":{"name":"Hunan Key Laboratory for Computation and Simulation in Science and Engineering, Department of Mathematics and Computational Science, Xiangtan University, Xiangtan, P.R.

the generalized Lyapunov equation and rewrite this equation into the generalized Stein equation by using Cayley transformation. Then we introduce the matrix versions of biconjugate residual (BICR), biconjugate gradients stabilized (Bi-CGSTAB), and conjugate residual squared (CRS) algorithms. This study’s primary motivation is to avoid the increase of computational complexity by using the Kronecker product and vectorization operation. Finally, we offer several numerical examples to show the effectiveness of the derived algorithms.</p></div></div></section> <div data-test="cobranding-download"> </div> <section aria-labelledby="inline-recommendations" data-title="Inline Recommendations" class="c-article-recommendations" data-track-component="inline-recommendations"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-title" id="inline-recommendations">Similar content being viewed by others</h3> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1007%2Fs40314-021-01523-5/MediaObjects/40314_2021_1523_Fig1_HTML.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://link.springer.com/10.1007/s40314-021-01523-5?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_1" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 1" data-track-label="10.1007/s40314-021-01523-5">Conjugate gradient-like algorithms for constrained operator equation related to quadratic inverse eigenvalue problems </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">08 May 2021</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3Aplaceholder%2Fimages/placeholder-figure-springernature.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://link.springer.com/10.1007/s11075-017-0432-8?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_2" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 2" data-track-label="10.1007/s11075-017-0432-8">Some iterative methods for the largest positive definite solution to a class of nonlinear matrix equation </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">02 November 2017</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-list__item"> <article class="c-article-recommendations-card" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__img"><img src="https://media.springernature.com/w215h120/springer-static/image/art%3Aplaceholder%2Fimages/placeholder-figure-springernature.png" loading="lazy" alt=""></div> <div class="c-article-recommendations-card__main"> <h3 class="c-article-recommendations-card__heading" itemprop="name headline"> <a class="c-article-recommendations-card__link" itemprop="url" href="https://link.springer.com/10.1007/s10255-024-1100-0?fromPaywallRec=false" data-track="select_recommendations_3" data-track-context="inline recommendations" data-track-action="click recommendations inline - 3" data-track-label="10.1007/s10255-024-1100-0">A Minimum Residual Based Gradient Iterative Method for a Class of Matrix Equations </a> </h3> <div class="c-article-meta-recommendations" data-test="recommendation-info"> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__item-type">Article</span> <span class="c-article-meta-recommendations__date">30 November 2023</span> </div> </div> </article> </div> </div> </section> <script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];

Recently, Abe et al. designed BiCR for symmetric complex matrices (SCBiCR) and analyzed the factor in the loss of convergence speed [<a data-track="click" data-track-action="reference anchor" data-track-label="link" data-test="citation-ref" aria-label="Reference 14" title="&#xA;&#x9;&#x9;&#x9;&#x9;&#x9;Abea, K., Fujino, S.: Converting BiCR method for linear equations with complex symmetric matrices.

It is easy to see that the BICR algorithm cannot be directly used to solve the generalized Lyapunov equation. Naturally, one can convert this matrix equation into the linear system through Kronecker product and vectorization operators. However, this makes the computational cost especially expensive. When the matrix order becomes larger, as the computer memory is limited, it is hard to implement in practice.</p><p>Therefore, we need to modify the BICR algorithm and ensure that the calculation cost is relatively cheap. In this subsection, we propose the matrix version of the BICR algorithm (Algorithm 1). Then we show the variant version of the BICR algorithm (Algorithm 2). </p><div class="c-article-section__figure js-c-reading-companion-figures-item" data-test="figure" data-container-section="figure" id="figure-a" data-title="Algorithm 1"><figure><figcaption><b id="Figa" class="c-article-section__figure-caption" data-test="figure-caption-text">Algorithm 1</b></figcaption><div class="c-article-section__figure-content"><div class="c-article-section__figure-item"><a class="c-article-section__figure-link" data-test="img-link" data-track="click" data-track-label="image" data-track-action="view figure" href="/article/10.1186/s13662-021-03381-1/figures/a" rel="nofollow"><picture><img aria-describedby="Figa" src="//media.springernature.com/lw685/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Figa_HTML.png" alt="figure a" loading="lazy" width="685" height="673"></picture></a></div><div class="c-article-section__figure-description" data-test="bottom-caption" id="figure-a-desc"><p>Matrix form of the BICR algorithm</p></div></div><div class="u-text-right u-hide-print"><a class="c-article__pill-button" data-test="article-link" data-track="click" data-track-label="button" data-track-action="view figure" href="/article/10.1186/s13662-021-03381-1/figures/a" data-track-dest="link:Figurea Full size image" aria-label="Full size image figure a" rel="nofollow"><span>Full size image</span><svg width="16" height="16" focusable="false" role="img" aria-hidden="true" class="u-icon"><use xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="#icon-eds-i-chevron-right-small"></use></svg></a></div></figure></div><div class="c-article-section__figure js-c-reading-companion-figures-item" data-test="figure" data-container-section="figure" id="figure-b" data-title="Algorithm 2"><figure><figcaption><b id="Figb" class="c-article-section__figure-caption" data-test="figure-caption-text">Algorithm 2</b></figcaption><div class="c-article-section__figure-content"><div class="c-article-section__figure-item"><a class="c-article-section__figure-link" data-test="img-link" data-track="click" data-track-label="image" data-track-action="view figure" href="/article/10.1186/s13662-021-03381-1/figures/b" rel="nofollow"><picture><img aria-describedby="Figb" src="//media.springernature.com/lw685/springer-static/image/art%3A10.1186%2Fs13662-021-03381-1/MediaObjects/13662_2021_3381_Figb_HTML.png" alt="figure b" loading="lazy" width="685" height="495"></picture></a></div><div class="c-article-section__figure-description" data-test="bottom-caption" id="figure-b-desc"><p>The variant form of the BICR algorithm</p></div></div><div class="u-text-right u-hide-print"><a class="c-article__pill-button" data-test="article-link" data-track="click" data-track-label="button" data-track-action="view figure" href="/article/10.1186/s13662-021-03381-1/figures/b" data-track-dest="link:Figureb Full size image" aria-label="Full size image figure b" rel="nofollow"><span>Full size image</span><svg width="16" height="16" focusable="false" role="img" aria-hidden="true" class="u-icon"><use xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="#icon-eds-i-chevron-right-small"></use></svg></a></div></figure></div><p>Using the iteration schemes of Algorithm 1 and Algorithm 2, we can directly solve the generalized Lyapunov equation.
