Reorthoganization in the block Lanczos algorithm
We present here a new proof of the theorem of Birman and Solomyak on the metric entropy of the unit ball of a Besov space on a regular domain of The result is: if s - d(1/π - 1/p)+> 0, then the Kolmogorov metric entropy satisfies H(ε) ~ ε-d/s. This proof takes advantage of the representation of such spaces on wavelet type bases and extends the result to more general spaces. The lower bound is a consequence of very simple probabilistic exponential inequalities. To prove the upper bound,...

Hybrid LSQR represents a powerful method for regularization of large-scale discrete inverse problems, where ill-conditioning of the model matrix and ill-posedness of the problem make the solutions seriously sensitive to the unknown noise in the data. Hybrid LSQR combines the iterative Golub-Kahan bidiagonalization with the Tikhonov regularization of the projected problem. While the behavior of the residual norm for the pure LSQR is well understood and can be used to construct a stopping criterion,...
This paper introduces the application of asynchronous iterations theory within the framework of the primal Schur domain decomposition method. A suitable relaxation scheme is designed, whose asynchronous convergence is established under classical spectral radius conditions. For the usual case where local Schur complement matrices are not constructed, suitable splittings based only on explicitly generated matrices are provided. Numerical experiments are conducted on a supercomputer for both Poisson's...
An abstract framework for constructing stable decompositions of the spaces corresponding to general symmetric positive definite problems into “local” subspaces and a global “coarse” space is developed. Particular applications of this abstract framework include practically important problems in porous media applications such as: the scalar elliptic (pressure) equation and the stream function formulation of its mixed form, Stokes’ and Brinkman’s equations. The constant in the corresponding abstract...

We discuss a family of discontinuous Petrov–Galerkin (DPG) schemes for quite general partial differential operators. The starting point of our analysis is the DPG method introduced by [Demkowicz et al., SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 49 (2011) 1788–1809; Zitelli et al., J. Comput. Phys. 230 (2011) 2406–2432]. This discretization results in a sparse positive definite linear algebraic system which can be obtained from a saddle point problem by an element-wise Schur complement reduction applied to the test space....
New positive definite preconditioners for the matrix free truncated Newton method are given. Corresponding algorithms are described in detail. Results of numerical experiments that confirm the efficiency and robustness of the preconditioned truncated Newton method are reported.
While a large amount of papers are dealing with robust multilevel methods and algorithms for linear FEM elliptic systems, the related higher order FEM problems are much less studied. Moreover, we know that the standard hierarchical basis two-level splittings deteriorate for strongly anisotropic problems. A first robust multilevel preconditioner for higher order FEM systems obtained after discretizations of elliptic problems with an anisotropic diffusion tensor is presented in this paper. We study...
