Abstract: Most state-of-the-art ordering schemes for sparse matrices are a hybrid of a bottom-up method such as minimum degree and a top down scheme such as George's nested dissection. In this paper we present an ordering algorithm that achieves a tighter coupling of bottom-up and topdown methods. In our methodology vertex separators are interpreted as the boundaries of the last elements in a bottom-up ordering. As a consequence, we are using bottom-up techniques like quotient graphs and special node... (Update)
