Reducing the bandwidth of non-symmetric matrix Is there an efficient algorithm to reduce the bandwidth of a directed graph's adjacency matrix? Something like the reverse Cuthill-McKee, but for non-symmetric matrices.
The following article discusses various approaches to reducing the bandwidth of unsymmetric matrices.
