Formally biorthogonal polynomials and a look-ahead Levinson algorithm for general Toeplitz systems

Systems of linear equations with Toeplitz coefficient matrices arise in many important applications. The classical Levinson algorithm computes solutions of Toeplitz systems with only O(n(sub 2)) arithmetic operations, as compared to O(n(sub 3)) operations that are needed for solving general linear systems. However, the Levinson algorithm in its original form requires that all leading principal submatrices are nonsingular. An extension of the Levinson algorithm to general Toeplitz systems is presented. The algorithm uses look-ahead to skip over exactly singular, as well as ill-conditioned leading submatrices, and, at the same time, it still fully exploits the Toeplitz structure. In our derivation of this algorithm, we make use of the intimate connection of Toeplitz matrices with formally biorthogonal polynomials
