Abstract

It is showed that if A is I-block diagonally dominant (II-block diagonally dominant), then the reduced matrix S preserves the same property. We also give a sufficient condition for the reduced matrix S also to be a block H-matrix when A is a block H-matrix, and some properties on the comparison matrices @m"I(A^(^k^)), @m"I"I(A^(^k^)), @m"I(L), and @m"I(U) are obtained. Finally, error analysis of block LU factorization for block tridiagonal matrix is presented.
