qr_mumps is a software package for the solution of sparse, linear systems on multicore computers. It implements a direct solution method based on the QR or Cholesky factorization of the input matrix. Therefore, it is suited to solving sparse least-squares problems, to computing the minimum-norm solution of sparse, underdetermined problems and to solving symmetric, positive-definite sparse linear systems. It can obviously be used for solving square unsymmetric problems in which case the stability provided by the use of orthogonal transformations comes at the cost of a higher operation count with respect to solvers based on, e.g., the LU factorization such as MUMPS. It supports real and complex, single or double precision arithmetic.
Note: qr_mumps is already precompiled with Yggdrasil for all platforms.
To use your custom qr_mumps, set the environment variable JULIA_QRMUMPS_LIBRARY_PATH
to point to the folder holding the qr_mumps shared libraries before using QRMumps
.
Note that the same version of qr_mumps as used by the qr_mumps_jll
artifact is needed.
To initialize qr_mumps with a custom installation, the function qrm_init
must be called prior to any other functions of QRMumps.jl.
For example:
brew tap dpo/mumps-jl
brew install qr_mumps
export JULIA_QRMUMPS_LIBRARY_PATH=$(brew --prefix)/opt/qr_mumps/lib
Apple Silicon users should remember to use arch x86_64 brew
to refer to Intel binaries run through Rosetta, as we do not (yet) ship Silicon binaries of qr_mumps via Homebrew.
The JULIA_QRMUMPS_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable may be set permanently in the shell's startup file, or in $HOME/.julia/config/startup.jl
