Abstract

The Conjugate Orthogonal Conjugate Gradient (COCG) method has been recognized as an attractive Lanczos-type Krylov subspace method for solving complex symmetric linear systems; however, it sometimes shows irregular convergence behavior in practical applications. In the present paper, we propose a Conjugate A-Orthogonal Conjugate Residual (COCR) method, which can be regarded as an extension of the Conjugate Residual (CR) method. Numerical examples show that COCR often gives smoother convergence behavior than COCG.
