We provide effective algorithms for solving block tridiagonal block Toeplitz systems with $m\times m$ quasiseparable blocks, as well as quadratic matrix equations with $m\times m$ quasiseparable coefficients, based on cyclic reduction and on the technology of rank-structured matrices. The algorithms rely on the exponential decay of the singular values of the off-diagonal submatrices generated by cyclic reduction. We provide a formal proof of this decay in the Markovian framework. The results of the numerical experiments that we report confirm a significant speed up over the general algorithms, already starting with the moderately small size $m\approx 10^2$.

Abstract
We provide effective algorithms for solving block tridiagonal block Toeplitz systems with $m\times m$ quasiseparable blocks, as well as quadratic matrix equations with $m\times m$ quasiseparable coefficients, based on cyclic reduction and on the technology of rank-structured matrices. The algorithms rely on the exponential decay of the singular values of the off-diagonal submatrices generated by cyclic reduction. We provide a formal proof of this decay in the Markovian framework. The results of the numerical experiments that we report confirm a significant speed up over the general algorithms, already starting with the moderately small size $m\approx 10^2$.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
