Preconditioning the Poincaré-Steklov operator by using Green's function
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is concerned with the Poincaré-Steklov operator that is widely used in domain decomposition methods. It is proved that the inverse of the Poincaré-Steklov operator can be expressed explicitly by an integral operator with a kernel being the Green’s function restricted to the interface. As an application, for the discrete Poincaré-Steklov operator with respect to either a line (edge) or a star-shaped web associated with a single vertex point, a preconditioner can be constructed by first imbedding the line as the diameter of a disk, or the web as a union of radii of a disk, and then using the Green’s function on the disk. The proposed technique can be effectively used in conjunction with various existing domain decomposition techniques, especially with the methods based on vertex spaces (from multi-subdomain decomposition). Some numerical results are reported.

Application of Biorthogonal Wavelets to Precondi- tioning the 3-Fields Formulation:Numerical Results in Nonconforming Decomposition
The aim of this paper is to implement the wavelet preconditioner for the linear system corresponding to the discrete Poincaré-Steklov operator arising in the three fields formulation. In order to apply the preconditioner, we will introduce multiresolution analysis(MRA)for L2(0, 2) which is suitable in nonconforming domain decomposition. Extensive numerical results show that the condition number...
متن کاملDomain decomposition methods via boundary integral equations
Domain decomposition methods are designed to deal with coupled or transmission problems for partial differential equations. Since the original boundary value problem is replaced by local problems in substructures, domain decomposition methods are well suited for both parallelization and coupling of different discretization schemes. In general, the coupled problem is reduced to the Schur complem...

The thesis focuses on the solution of both coercive and semi–coercive contact problems by using the Boundary Element Tearing and Interconnecting (BETI) method, which represents a boundary element counterpart of the Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting (FETI) method. The BETI approach, which uses “tearing” the domain into non–overlapping subdomains and subsequent “gluing” along the artific...
متن کاملSolution to the Neumann problem exterior to a prolate spheroid by radial basis functions
We consider the exterior Neumann problem of the Laplacian with boundary condition on a prolate spheroid. We propose to use spherical radial basis functions in the solution of the boundary integral equation arising from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. Our approach is particularly suitable for handling of scattered data, e.g. satellite data. We also propose a preconditioning technique based on doma...
متن کاملInfinitely Many Solutions for a Steklov Problem Involving the p(x)-Laplacian Operator
By using variational methods and critical point theory for smooth functionals defined on a reflexive Banach space, we establish the existence of infinitely many weak solutions for a Steklov problem involving the p(x)-Laplacian depending on two parameters. We also give some corollaries and applicable examples to illustrate the obtained result../files/site1/files/42/4Abstract.pdf
