The optimal preconditioner c U (A) of a given matrix A was proposed in 1988 by T. Chan [6]. Since then, it has been proved to be efficient for solving a large class of structured systems. In this paper, we construct the optimal preconditioners for different functions of matrices. More precisely, let f be a function of matrices from C n× n to C n× n. Given A∈ C n× n, there are two possible optimal preconditioners for f (A): c U (f (A)) and f (c U (A)). In the paper, we study properties of both c U (f (A)) and f (c U (A)) for different functions of matrices. Numerical experiments are given to illustrate the efficiency of the optimal preconditioners when they are used to solve f (A) x= b.
