Abstract
This paper concerns the solutions of very large symmetric semipositive definite (singular) linear systems involved in the problem of optimal surface parameterizations using inverse curvature mapping. Two approaches are presented that transform the singular linear systems into two kinds of symmetric positive definite linear systems, so that the famous Conjugate Gradient (CG) method can be used for solving them. Numerical experiments are run on two practical large problems to illustrate that the CG algorithm works very efficiently.
