Abstract: . The elimination tree is central to the study of Cholesky factorization of sparse
symmetric positive definite matrices. In this paper, we generalize the elimination tree to a structure
appropriate for the sparse LU factorization of unsymmetric matrices. We define a pair of directed
acyclic graphs called elimination dags, and use them to characterize the zero-nonzero structures of
the lower and upper triangular factors. We apply these elimination structures in a new algorithm to
compute fill... (Update)
