Abstract

The optimal preconditioner and the superoptimal preconditioner were proposed in 1988 and 1992 respectively. They have been studied widely since then. Recently, Chen and Jin [6] extend the superoptimal preconditioner to a more general case by using the Moore-Penrose inverse. In this paper, we further study some useful properties of the optimal and the generalized superoptimal preconditioners. Several existing results are extended and new properties are developed.
