Abstract

A parallel two-stage algorithm for reduction of a regular matrix pair (A,B) to Hessenberg-triangular form (H,T) is presented. Stage one reduces the matrix pair to a block upper Hessenberg-triangular form (H rT), where H r is upper r-Hessenberg with r > 1 subdiagonals and T is upper triangular. In stage two, the desired upper Hessenberg-triangular form is computed using two-sided Givens rotations. Performance results for the ScaLAPACK-style implementations show that the parallel algorithms can be used to solve large scale problems effectively.
