Notes

  1. 1.

    For certain methods, continuity of the normal derivative is however assured, like in the FETI methods, or continuity of the Dirichlet traces, like in the Neumann-Neumann method or the alternating Schwarz method. This can be used to reduce the size of the optimal coarse space.

  2. 2.

    See footnote 1.

  3. 3.

    The same happens if inclusions are only contained within the subdomains, outside the overlap.
