A generalized eigensolver based on smoothed aggregation (GES-SA) for initializing smoothed aggregation (SA) multigrid

Consider the linear system Ax = b, where A is a large, sparse, real, symmetric, and positive definite matrix and b is a known vector. Solving this system for unknown vector x using a smoothed aggregation multigrid (SA) algorithm requires a characterization of the algebraically smooth error, meaning error that is poorly attenuated by the algorithm’s relaxation process. For many common relaxation...
