Abstract

The paper establishes explicit representations of the errors and residuals of approximate
solutions of triangular linear systems by Jordan elimination and of general linear algebraic
systems by Gauss-Jordan elimination as functions of the data perturbations and the rounding
errors in arithmetic floating-point operations. From these representations strict optimal
componentwise error and residual bounds are derived. Further, stability estimates for the
solutions are discussed. The error bounds for the solutions of triangular linear systems are
compared to the optimal error bounds for the solutions by back substitution and by Gaussian
elimination with back substitution, respectively. The results confirm in a very detailed form
that the errors of the solutions by Jordan elimination and by Gauss-Jordan elimination cannot
be essentially greater than the possible maximal errors of the solutions by back substitution
and by Gaussian elimination, respectively. Finally, the theoretical results are illustrated by
two numerical examples.
