Two Block Splitting Iteration Methods for Solving Complex Symmetric Linear Systems from Complex Helmholtz Equation

In this paper, we study the improved block splitting (IBS) iteration method and its accelerated variant, the accelerated improved block splitting (AIBS) iteration method, for solving linear systems of equations stemming from the discretization of the complex Helmholtz equation. We conduct a comprehensive convergence analysis and derive optimal iteration parameters aimed at minimizing the spectral radius of the iteration matrix. Through numerical experiments, we validate the efficiency of both iteration methods.
