It is shown that the optimal parameters for linear second-degree stationary iterative methods applied to nonsymmetric linear systems can be found by solving the same minimax problem used to find optimal parameters for the Tchebychev iteration. In fact, the Tchebychev iteration is asymptotically equivalent to a linear second-degree stationary method. The method of finding optimal parameters for the Tchebychev iteration given by Manteuffel (Numer. Math., 28, 307-27 (1977)) can be used to find optimal parameters for the stationary method as well. 1 figure.
