Abstract
This paper treats the problem of triangularizing a matrix by hyperboli c Householder transformations. The stability of this method, which fin ds application in block updating and fast algorithms for Toeplitz-like matrices, has been analyzed only in special cases. Here we give a gen eral analysis which shows that two distinct implementations of the ind ividual transformations are relationally stable. The analysis also sho ws that pivoting is required for the entire triangularization algorith m to be stable.
