Abstract

Many matrices appearing in numerical methods for partial differential equations and integral equations are rank-structured, i.e., they contain submatrices that can be approximated by matrices of low rank. A relatively general class of rank-structured matrices are {\mathcal {H}}^2-matrices: they can reach the optimal order of complexity, but are still general enough for a large number of practical applications. We consider algorithms for performing algebraic operations with {\mathcal {H}}^2-matrices, i.e., for approximating the matrix product, inverse or factorizations in almost linear complexity. The new approach is based on local low-rank updates that can be performed in linear complexity. These updates can be combined with a recursive procedure to approximate the product of two {\mathcal {H}}^2-matrices, and these products can be used to approximate the matrix inverse and the LR or Cholesky factorization. Numerical experiments indicate that the new algorithm leads to preconditioners that require {\mathcal {O}}(n)units of storage, can be evaluated in {\mathcal {O}}(n)operations, and take {\mathcal {O}}(n \log n)operations to set up.
