Summary

This paper presents a new algorithm for computing theQR factorization of anm×n Toeplitz matrix inO(mn) operations. The algorithm exploits the procedure for the rank-1 modification and the fact that both principal (m−1)×(n−1) submatrices of the Toeplitz matrix are identical. An efficient parallel implementation of the algorithm is possible.
