Factorization of large dense matrices are ubiquitous in engineering and data science applications, e.g. preconditioners for iterative boundary integral solvers, frontal matrices in sparse multifrontal solvers, and computing the determinant…

Hierarchical low-rank approximation of dense matrices can reduce the complexity of their factorization from O(N^3) to O(N). However, the complex structure of such hierarchical matrices makes them difficult to parallelize. The block size and…

We present a sparse linear system solver that is based on a multifrontal variant of Gaussian elimination, and exploits low-rank approximation of the resulting dense frontal matrices. We use hierarchically semiseparable (HSS) matrices, which…

We present a distributed-memory library for computations with dense structured matrices. A matrix is considered structured if its off-diagonal blocks can be approximated by a rank-deficient matrix with low numerical rank. Here, we use…

We address the parallelization of the LU factorization of hierarchical matrices ($\mathcal{H}$-matrices) arising from boundary element methods. Our approach exploits task-parallelism via the OmpSs programming model and runtime, which…

Randomized sampling has recently been proven a highly efficient technique for computing approximate factorizations of matrices that have low numerical rank. This paper describes an extension of such techniques to a wider class of matrices…

Kernel matrices appear in machine learning and non-parametric statistics. Given $N$ points in $d$ dimensions and a kernel function that requires $\mathcal{O}(d)$ work to evaluate, we present an $\mathcal{O}(dN\log N)$-work algorithm for the…

The hierarchical matrix framework partitions matrices into subblocks that are either small or of low numerical rank, enabling linear storage complexity and efficient matrix-vector multiplication. This work focuses on the $H^2$-matrix format…

Many matrices appearing in numerical methods for partial differential equations and integral equations are rank-structured, i.e., they contain submatrices that can be approximated by matrices of low rank. A relatively general class of…

LU and Cholesky matrix factorization algorithms are core subroutines used to solve systems of linear equations (SLEs) encountered while solving an optimization problem. Standard factorization algorithms are highly efficient but remain…

While existing algorithms may be used to solve a linear system over a general field in matrix-multiplication time, the complexity of constructing a symmetric triangular factorization (LDL) has received relatively little formal study. The…

We present a fast direct algorithm for computing symmetric factorizations, i.e. $A = WW^T$, of symmetric positive-definite hierarchical matrices with weak-admissibility conditions. The computational cost for the symmetric factorization…

Inversion of sparse matrices with standard direct solve schemes is robust, but computationally expensive. Iterative solvers, on the other hand, demonstrate better scalability; but, need to be used with an appropriate preconditioner (e.g.,…

In this work, we develop a fast hierarchical solver for solving large, sparse least squares problems. We build upon the algorithm, spaQR (sparsified QR), that was developed by the authors to solve large sparse linear systems. Our algorithm…

In this paper, we consider the matrices approximated in H2 format. The direct solution, as well as the preconditioning, of systems with such matrices is a challenging problem. We propose a non-extensive sparse factorization of the H2 matrix…

Direct factorization methods for the solution of large, sparse linear systems that arise from PDE discretizations are robust, but typically show poor time and memory scalability for large systems. In this paper, we describe an efficient…

We present a randomized algorithm for producing a quasi-optimal hierarchically semi-separable (HSS) approximation to an $N\times N$ matrix $A$ using only matrix-vector products with $A$ and $A^T$. We prove that, using $O(k \log(N/k))$…
