What is the best way to solve A\B
where A
and B
are sparse, and where the result is also known to be sparse? Right now it seems I have to do sparse(A \ Matrix(B))
.

Beware that the inverse is rarely sparse. But in cases where it is, see SparseSparse for inverting structured sparse matrices

I am aware. For this particular problem type, it is. The problem starts relatively sparse for small sizes, but sparsity increases quickly as the problem size grows. Thanks for the reference.
