Minimizing convex quadratic with variable precision conjugate gradients

We investigate the method of conjugate gradients, exploiting inaccurate matrix-vector products, for the solution of convex quadratic optimization problems. Theoretical performance bounds are derived, and the necessary quantities occurring in the theoretical bounds estimated, leading to a practical algorithm. Numerical experiments suggest that this approach has significant potential, including in the steadily more important context of multi-precision computations
