- We assume statistical homogeneity and isotropy. Therefore the signal covariance $S$ is diagonal in harmonic space, and is described by a one-dimensional power spectrum, assumed here as $$P(k) = P_0\,\left(1+\left(\frac{k}{k_0}\right)^2\right)^{-\gamma /2},$$
where $\lambda_{\text{max}}$ and $\lambda_{\text{min}}$ are the largest and smallest eigenvalue of $A$, respectively.
- The larger $\kappa$ the slower Conjugate Gradient.
- By default, conjugate gradient solves: $D^{-1} m = j$ for $m$, where $D^{-1}$ can be badly conditioned. If one knows a non-singular matrix $T$ for which $TD^{-1}$ is better conditioned, one can solve the equivalent problem:
$$\tilde A m = \tilde j,$$
where $\tilde A = T D^{-1}$ and $\tilde j = Tj$.
- In our case $S^{-1}$ is responsible for the bad conditioning of $D$ depending on the chosen power spectrum. Thus, we choose
$$T = \mathcal F^\dagger S_h^{-1} \mathcal F.$$
