H-CMRH: a novel inner product free hybrid Krylov method for large-scale inverse problems

Ariana N. Brown, Malena Sabaté Landman, James G. Nagy

TL;DR

Investigation of the iterative regularization properties of two Krylov methods for solving large-scale ill-posed problems suggests that H-CMRH exhibits comparable performance to the established hybrid GMRES method in terms of stabilizing semiconvergence, but H-CMRH has does not require any inner products, and requires less work and storage per iteration.

Abstract

This study investigates the iterative regularization properties of two Krylov methods for solving large-scale ill-posed problems: the changing minimal residual Hessenberg method (CMRH) and a novel hybrid variant called the hybrid changing minimal residual Hessenberg method (H-CMRH). Both methods share the advantages of avoiding inner products, making them efficient and highly parallelizable, and particularly suited for implementations that exploit randomization and mixed precision arithmetic. Theoretical results and extensive numerical experiments suggest that H-CMRH exhibits comparable performance to the established hybrid GMRES method in terms of stabilizing semiconvergence, but H-CMRH has does not require any inner products, and requires less work and storage per iteration.

Key Result

Proposition 1

\newlabelprop:10 Let $H_{k+1,k}$ and $H^{A}_{k+1,k}$ be the Hessenberg matrices associated to the Hessenberg and Arnoldi processes, respectively, at iteration $k$, then or, equivalently, $H^{A}_{k+1,k} = R_{k+1}H_{k+1,k}R_{k}^{-1}.$
