چکیده

The Restricted Additive Schwarz (RAS) method is adapted to the problem of computing the stationary probability distribution vector of large, sparse, irreducible stochastic matrices. Inexact and two-level variants are also considered, as well as acceleration by Krylov subspace methods. The convergence properties are analyzed and extensive numerical experiments aimed at assessing the effect of varying the number of subdomains and the amount of overlap are discussed.

Algebraic Schwarz Methods for the Numerical Solution of Markov Chains

The convergence of additive and multiplicative Schwarz methods for computing certain characteristics of Markov chains such as stationary probability vectors and mean first passage matrices is studied. Our main result is a convergence theorem for multiplicative Schwarz iterations when applied to singular systems. As a by-product we also obtain a convergence result for alternating iterations. It ...

Additive Schwarz Iterations for Markov Chains

A convergence analysis is presented for additive Schwarz iterations when applied to consistent singular systems of equations of the form Ax = b. The theory applies to singular M -matrices with one-dimensional null space and is applicable in particular to systems representing ergodic Markov chains, and to certain discretizations of partial differential equations. Additive Schwarz can be seen as ...

Restricted Additive Schwarz Method with Harmonic Overlap

In this paper, we introduce a new Schwarz preconditioner and with a new coarse space. We construct the preconditioner by grouping together, in one preconditioner, features from the additive overlapping Schwarz methods, from iterative substructuring methods and from a class of restricted additive Schwarz methods. The preconditioner is symmetric and considered as a symmetrized version of restrict...

Restricted overlapping balancing domain decomposition methods and restricted coarse problems for the Helmholtz problem

Overlapping balancing domain decomposition methods and their combination with restricted additive Schwarz methods are proposed for the Helmholtz equation. These new methods also extend previous work on non-overlapping balancing domain decomposition methods toward simplifying their coarse problems and local solvers. They also extend restricted Schwarz methods, originally designed to overlapping ...

Algebraic Analysis of Schwarz Methods for Singular Systems

During the last few years, an algebraic formulation of Schwarz methods was developed. In this paper this algebraic formulation is used to prove new convergence results for multiplicative Schwarz methods when applied to consistent singular systems of linear equations. Coarse grid corrections are also studied. In particular, these results are applied to the numerical solutions of Markov chains.
