MINRES-QLP: a Krylov subspace method for indefinite or singular symmetric systems
CG, SYMMLQ, and MINRES are Krylov subspace methods for solving symmetric systems of linear equations. When these methods are applied to an incompatible system (that is, a singular symmetric least-squares problem), CG could break down and SYMMLQ’s solution could explode, while MINRES would give a least-squares solution but not necessarily the minimum-length (pseudoinverse) solution.
