Abstract
Existing convergence bounds for Krylov subspace methods such as GMRES for nonsymmetric linear systems give little mathematical guidance for the choice of preconditioner. Here, we establish a desirable mathematical property of a preconditioner which indicates when convergence of a minimum residual method will essentially depend only on the eigenvalues of the preconditioned system, as is true in the symmetric case. Our theory covers the generic case of nonsymmetric coefficient matrices which are diagonalisable
over C; it does not cover matrices with nontrivial Jordan form.
