An algorithm for solving nonsymmetric penta-diagonal Toeplitz linear systems

Fast algorithms for solving symmetric penta-diagonal Toeplitz linear systems have been proposed in McNally (2010) [7], Nemani (2010) [8] and Xu (2010) [11]. In this paper, we discuss the general nonsymmetric problem and propose an algorithm for solving nonsymmetric penta-diagonal Toeplitz linear systems. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the efficiency of our algorithm.
