Abstract: This paper analyzes a few methods based on the Lanczos algorithm for solving large sparse symmetric linear systems with several right-hand sides. The methods examined are suitable for the situation when the right sides are not too different from one another, as is often the case in time-dependent or parameter-dependent problems. We propose a theoretical error bound for the approximation obtained from a projection process onto a Krylov subspace generated from processing a previous right-hand side.
