Abstract
The paper analyses the biconjugate gradient algorithm and its preconditioned version for solving large systems of linear algebraic equations with nonsingular sparse complex matrices. Special emphasis is laid on symmetric matrices arising from discretization of complex partial differential equations by the finite element method.
