Abstract

A new method requiring O(log N) operations for the factorization of a symmetric tridiagonal Toeplitz matrix is presented. The method is shown to require O(N) operations in O(log N) steps using N processors for forward and backward substitution, and to exhibit a high degree of parallelism. The algorithm is derived using a generalized form of Gauss elimination which is applicable, with other operation-count bounds, to the general sparse matrix problem.
