Abstract

We present a deflated version of the conjugate gradient algorithm for solving linear systems. The new algorithm can be useful in cases when a small number of eigenvalues of the iteration matrix are very close to the origin. It can also be useful when solving linear systems with multiple right-hand sides, since the eigenvalue information gathered from solving one linear system can be recycled for solving the next systems and then updated.
