Review: This book provides the working knowledge and underlying theory and practice of sparse matrix algorithms, enabling the reader to understand more complex (but faster) algorithms. It gives the fundamentals of sparse matrix algorithms for the direct solution of sparse linear systems, from theory to algorithms and from data structures to working code. There are chapters on: Basic algorithms; Solving triangular systems; Cholesky factorization; Orthogonal methods; LU factorization; Fill-reducing orderings; Solving sparse linear systems; CSparse and Sparse matrices in MATLAB.
