Convex-hull conjecture for Orthomin(1)

Let ζ1,,ζdC\zeta_1,\dots,\zeta_d\in\mathbb{C} be the spectral points used in the finite-dimensional Orthomin analysis, and let Hull(ζ1,,ζd)\operatorname{Hull}(\zeta_1,\dots,\zeta_d) denote their convex hull. Let qnq_n be the Orthomin(1)(1) residual convergence factor and let ρ\rho be the parameter in the associated linear system. Convex-hull conjecture. If

ρHull(ζ1,,ζd),-\rho\in\operatorname{Hull}(\zeta_1,\dots,\zeta_d),

then

qnρ.q_n\to\rho.

The paper describes this as a sharpened version of its earlier conjecture. The preceding proposition proves only the complementary obstruction that ρ-\rho outside the convex hull implies qnq_n does not converge to ρ\rho; the stated implication is therefore left open in the supplied text.
