Abstract: The solution of tridiagonal linear systems is used in in various fields and plays a crucial role in numerical simulations. However, there is few efficient solver for tridiagonal linear ...

Matrix classes for matrices that are block-tridiagonal and sparse, and simply "block sparse". These talk together, and furthermore containts an algorithm for inversion of the block-tridiagonal version ...

In the current article we propose a new efficient, reliable and breakdown-free algorithm for solving general opposite-bordered tridiagonal linear systems. An explicit formula for computing the ...

A new method for solving the 1D Poisson equation is presented using the finite difference method. This method is based on the exact formulation of the inverse of the tridiagonal matrix associated with ...
