Iteration number for the conjugate gradient method

TL;DR: This paper explains why the behaviour of the conjugate gradient method converges typically in three phases, an initial phase of rapid convergence but short duration, a fairly linearly convergent phase, which depends on the spectral condition number and finally a superlinearly Convergent phase which dependson how the smallest eigenvalues are distributed.

Preconditioned CG methods for sparse matrices on massively parallel machines

TL;DR: The data distribution and the communication scheme for the sparse matrix operations of the preconditioned CG are based on the analysis of the indices of the non-zero elements, and a fully local incomplete Cholesky preconditionser is presented.

Using approximate inverses in algebraic multilevel methods

TL;DR: This paper investigates preconditioning techniques of the two-level type that are based on a block factorization of the system matrix and derives condition number estimates that are valid for any type of approximation of the Schur complement.
