Fast direct solvers for the Poisson equation with homogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on special triangles and tetrahedra are constructed. The domain given is extended by symmetrization or skew symmetrization onto a rectangle or a rectangular parallelepiped and a fast direct solver is used there. All extendable domains are found. Eigenproblems are also considered.
The joint spectral radius of a finite set of real matrices is defined to be the maximum possible exponential rate of growth of products of matrices drawn from that set. In previous work with K. G. Hare and J. Theys we showed that for a certain one-parameter family of pairs of matrices, this maximum possible rate of growth is attained along Sturmian sequences with a certain characteristic ratio which depends continuously upon the parameter. In this note we answer some open questions from that paper...
We discuss a parallel implementation of the domain decomposition method based on the macro-hybrid formulation of a second order elliptic equation and on an approximation by the mortar element method. The discretization leads to an algebraic saddle- point problem. An iterative method with a block- diagonal preconditioner is used for solving the saddle- point problem. A parallel implementation of the method is emphasized. Finally the results of numerical experiments are presented.
