Abstract
The best method for computing the adjoint matrix of an order n matrix in an arbitrary commutative ring requires O(n β + 1/3 log n log log n) operations, provided that the complexity of the algorithm for multiplying two matrices is γn β + o(n β). For a commutative domain – and under the same assumptions – the complexity of the best method is 6γn β/(2β–2)+o(n β). In the present work a new method is presented for the computation of the adjoint matrix in a commutative domain. Despite the fact that the number of operations required is now 1.5 times more, than that of the best method, this new method permits a better parallelization of the computational process and may be successfully employed for computations in parallel computational systems.
