Subject: Typo in "Templates..."

There is a typographical error in the QMR algorithm on page 24 of
"Templates for the Solution of Linear Systems: Building Blocks for
Iterative Methods" by Richard Barrett et al (SIAM 1994). The matrix M_2
on Line 4 of the pseudocode should be replaced by its transpose.
Correction of this error dramatically improves convergence in the case
where M_2 is upper triangular.

Subject: Corrected Painless Conjugate Gradient Report

The corrected version of my Conjugate Gradient report is now available by
anonymous FTP:

An Introduction to the Conjugate Gradient Method
Without the Agonizing Pain
(Edition 1 1/4, Corrected)

If you obtained a copy of the original report, please burn it and replace it
with the new one. The new version corrects all errors that I know of, and adds
a few more pages of intuition. Note that the new version is *NOT* available
from the same FTP site as the original version. (The copy at that site is
still the old version with the nasty errors.)

The corrected report is available by anonymous FTP to WARP.CS.CMU.EDU (IP
address 128.2.209.103) in the directory quake-papers/ . You may choose from
the files:

Remember to set FTP to binary mode when obtaining compressed files. The report
itself is formatted for a two-sided printer.

Comments and corrections are welcome and encouraged. Many thanks to all of
you who sent me comments about the original version; I can't begin to say how
helpful NA Digest readers have been. For those of you who have been waiting
too long for the corrected version, thanks for your patience.

Subject: Representation Errors for Bandlimited Functions

Any band-limited signal (1-D to begin with) can be resampled or interpolated
using the Cardinal functions S(k,h), namely:

        f(x) = Sum S(k,h)(x) f(kh)
k

where S(k,h) = sin[pi/h * (x-kh)] / [pi/h * (x-kh)] and the integer k is in the
set [-inf,inf]. So by resampling at a certain number of points one gets a new
grid (vary x).

My intention is to be able to estimate h so that the approximation
of the function f (obtained by truncating the infinite sum) g is within an
error bounds. In other words,

        f(x) = Sum S(k,h)(x) f(kh) + Sum S(k,h)(x) f(kh)
-n<=k <=n            abs(k) > n
f(x) = g(x,n,h) + e(x,n,h)


Here g() is the error in question. Frank Stenger at University of Utah has done
work in characterising the error that arises for functions represented as sum
of Cardinal functions. However the estimates are "global".

What I am looking for is the following -

Given a certain value of x at a grid, I would like to determine the value of
such that the error is bounded. Hence, the error estimates should depend on
n and x. The error estimates available in the literature either depend
on x alone or N, but not both.

Is there any published work which attempts to characterize the local error ?.
Such an estimate would allow for the adaptive processing of a given signal.

Subject: Solution to a Block Toeplitz System

One of my clients sent me the note below, but since I'm not a researcher in
numerical analysis I can't help him very much. If anyone on the list has a
suggestion for him, I would be grateful to hear it.

I have run across the following type of partitioned linear system

      --            --   --    --   --    --
|  a  b  c  b  |   |  x1  |   |  y1  |
|  b  a  b  c  | * |  x2  | = |  y2  |
|  c  b  a  b  |   |  x3  |   |  y3  |
|  b  c  b  a  |   |  x4  |   |  y4  |
--            --   --    --   --    --


where a, b, and c are NxN sub-matrices, the xi's are Nx1, and the
yi's are also Nx1. As a whole there are 4*N equations and unknowns.
If N=1, this would be a symmetric Toeplitz matrix, and I know
there are algorithms to solve such a system. Additionally in this
case, the matrix-vector multiplication can be written as a convolu-
tion and the system could be solved using FFT's. But in my case
N is some large number, 500 or more. Do you know of any specialized
method to solve such a system? It seems there should be a way to
take advantage of the symmetry present in the matrix. I would
appreciate any insight you might have.

Subject: Mathematical Support for Molecular Biology

DIMACS SPECIAL YEAR 1994-95
"MATHEMATICAL SUPPORT FOR MOLECULAR BIOLOGY"

DIMACS, the Center for Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical
Computer Science, a Consortium of Rutgers and Princeton Universities
and AT&T Bell Laboratories and Bellcore, is planning a 1994-95
"special year" on the topic Mathematical Support for Molecular
Biology. The program will start in August 1994 and run through August
1995, with some supplementary activities scheduled for the 1995-96
year.

The Special Year will focus on those topics in molecular
biology that seem especially amenable to treatment using the methods
of discrete mathematics and the related algorithmic approaches of
theoretical computer science. It is intended to expose a large
portion of the community of discrete mathematicians and theoretical
computer scientists to the problems of molecular biology that seem to
be fundamentally problems of their field; to provide an opportunity
for intensive collaboration to those discrete mathematicians and
theoretical computer scientists who have already discovered these
problems; to introduce some outstanding young people in the
mathematical sciences community to the field of
mathematical/computational biology in a very concentrated way; to
forge lasting partnerships between mathematical scientists and
biological scientists; to involve biologists in a primary role in
defining the agenda of computational biology; to introduce molecular
biologists to a community of mathematical scientists who are
interested in helping them solve their problems; and to develop a
long-term base and model for interdisciplinary research in this field.

The DIMACS Special Year will be chaired by Joachim Messing and
Fred Roberts of Rutgers University. It will be co-chaired by Lawrence
Shepp of AT&T Bell Laboratories and Michael Waterman of the University
of Southern California.

Further information about the special year can be obtained
from any of the chairs or co-chairs or by sending a message to
special@dimacs.rutgers.edu.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
OONSCI '95
The Third Annual Object-Oriented Numerics Conference
Jackson Lake Lodge, Wyoming
May 21-24, 1995

PROGRAM COMMITTEE:

Scientific application software continues to grow in complexity due
to increasing functionality, evolution of codes, the use of
parallelism, and other factors. As a result, more and more time is
spent writing and maintaining computer code, and less time is spent
on the application itself. Object technology offers a way to break
this cycle. Structuring applications as assemblages of software
objects, rather than as monolithic programs, may pave the way for
more efficient and complex applications by making software reusable,
distributable, and modular.

The annual OONSCI conference (formerly known as OONSKI) promotes the
use of object technology for constructing numerical applications.
OONSCI provides a forum for computer scientists and scientific
related to object-oriented programming and discuss their experiences.

SCOPE:

Examples of appropriate topics include:
* experiences with object technology
* use of non-programming language specific objects - for
example, CORBA or Visual Basic controls.
* object-oriented languages and environments
* object-oriented design
* reusable software objects
* performance issues related to object-oriented programming

Application domain specific papers should focus on the
object-oriented techniques used. Sample application domains of
interest to OONSCI are:
* image processing
* computer graphics
* PDE solvers
* engineering

December 16, 1994
* Tutorials

January 16, 1995
* Papers
* Survey papers
* Panels
* Posters

connection with the impending retirement of Professor Alan Jeffrey. The
person appointed will be expected to contribute generally to the wide
range of courses in Engineering Mathematics provided for students in the

corresponding initiatives in Engineering Mathematics. A major
initiative at present involves the implementation of semester-based
modular teaching from October 1994. Opportunities for research include
involvement with other Departments in the Faculty in areas of mutual
interest, whether in the form of collaborative projects or in the joint
supervision of research students, and this is reflected in the fact that
the staff establishment of the Department has always included both
engineers and mathematicians.

Salary will be at an appropriate point on the Lecturer Grade A scale:
#14,756-#19,326 p.a., according to qualifications and experience.

No forms of application are issued. Further particulars may be obtained
from the Director of Personnel, Registrar's Office, University of
