Exact computations with quasiseparable matrices

Pernet, Clément, Signargout, Hippolyte, Villard, Gilles

Understand

Quasi-separable matrices are a class of rank-structured matriceswidely used in numerical linear algebra and of growing interestin computer algebra, with applications in e.g.

  • the linearization ofpolynomial matrices.
  • Various representation formats exist for thesematrices that have rarely been compared.We show how the most central formats SSS and HSS can beadapted to symbolic computation, where the exact rank replacesthreshold based numerical ranks.
  • We clarify their links and comparethem with the Bruhat format.
