Summary: | The block conjugate orthogonal conjugate gradient method (BCOCG) is recognized as a common method to solve complex symmetric linear systems with multiple right-hand sides. However, breakdown always occurs if the right-hand sides are rank deficient. In this paper, based on the orthogonality conditions, we present a breakdown-free BCOCG algorithm with new parameter matrices to handle rank deficiency. To improve the spectral properties of coefficient matrix <i>A</i>, a precondition version of the breakdown-free BCOCG is proposed in detail. We also give the relative algorithms for the block conjugate <i>A</i>-orthogonal conjugate residual method. Numerical results illustrate that when breakdown occurs, the breakdown-free algorithms yield faster convergence than the non-breakdown-free algorithms.
