MR2344960 Dana, M.; Ikramov, Kh. D. A numerical comparison of two minimal residual methods for linear polynomials in unitary matrices. (Russian) Zh. Vychisl. Mat. Mat. Fiz. 46 (2006), no. 12, 2138--2148. 65Fxx Numerical performance of the two specific methods adapted to the problems $(\alpha U + \beta I)=b$ with unitary $U$ is compared. A persuasively and increasingly better performance of the method using the generalized rather than standard Krylov subspaces is found at the growing ratio $|\alpha|/|\beta|>1$.
