Review:

The non-symmetric Jacobi-Davidson (JD) methods do not seem to
offer improvements based on a restarting scheme, while the mere
alternative non-symmetric Lanczos algorithm itself, with
restarts, does not make any use of a correction equation
expanding its basis. At the same time, the multiplication of a
vector by an adjoint of a matrix is ``cheap" on the contemporary
parallelized computers. With these two ideas in mind, the
author describes a combined method, a bi-orthogonal version of
the JD approach, and brings arguments in favour of its high
competitive potential: E.g., the JD convergence is improved from
quadratic to cubic.
