Thomas Method



This method emerges as a simplification of an LU factorization of a tridiagonal matrix.






















Saying that A = LU and applying Doolittle where Lii = 1 for i = 1 to n, we get:


Based on the matrix product shown above gives the following expressions:


As far as making the sweep from k = 2 to n leads to the following:




If LUx=r  and Ux=d so Ld=r, then:









After a progressive sustitution we have :


Solving Ux=d afron the regressive sustitution:
