Solving a system of linear equations with a matrix with 5 diagonals is done pretty well by LinearSolve. But since I work with large matrices, and all of them have only 5 nonzero diagonals, I don't have to use memory for the nonzero entries in order to give LinearSolve a "good and square" matrix. Does anybody know how could I, for example, do some transformation from 5 to 3 diagonals and then use TridiagonalSolve? I would appreciate any help. Thanks!
