Space Decompositions and Solvers for Discontinuous Galerkin Methods
We present a brief overview of the different domain and space decomposition
techniques that enter in developing and analyzing solvers for discontinuous
Galerkin methods. Emphasis is given to the novel and distinct features that
arise when considering DG discretizations over conforming methods. Connections
and differences with the conforming approaches are emphasized.Comment: 2 pages 2 figures no table
An agglomeration-based massively parallel non-overlapping additive Schwarz preconditioner for high-order discontinuous Galerkin methods on polytopic grids
In this article we design and analyze a class of two-level non-overlapping
additive Schwarz preconditioners for the solution of the linear system of
equations stemming from discontinuous Galerkin discretizations of second-order
elliptic partial differential equations on polytopic meshes. The preconditioner
is based on a coarse space and a non-overlapping partition of the computational
domain where local solvers are applied in parallel. In particular, the coarse
space can potentially be chosen to be non-embedded with respect to the finer
space; indeed it can be obtained from the fine grid by employing agglomeration
and edge coarsening techniques. We investigate the dependence of the condition
number of the preconditioned system with respect to the diffusion coefficient
and the discretization parameters, i.e., the mesh size and the polynomial
degree of the fine and coarse spaces. Numerical examples are presented which
confirm the theoretical bounds
