    A structural diagnosis of some IC orderings (English)
    0 references
    The authors use the approximate inverse \((\bar{L}\bar{L}^T)^{-1}\) resulting from incomplete Cholesky (IC) factorization \(\bar{L}\bar{L}^T\) to explain the success of reverse Cuthill-McKee orderings and the poor performance of IC under red-black orderings. The analysis is based on two results on the nonzero structure (pattern) of the approximate inverse and of \(\bar{L}\), respectively, barring fortuitous cancellations.
