Adaptive Coarse Spaces for BDDC with a Transformation of Basis

  • Conference paper
Domain Decomposition Methods in Science and Engineering XXII

Abstract

We describe a BDDC algorithm, see e.g., [1], and an adaptive coarse space enforced by a transformation of basis for the iterative solution of scalar diffusion problems with a discontinuous diffusion coefficient. The coefficient varies over several orders of magnitude both inside of the subdomains and along the interface. A related algorithm for FETI-DP with a balancing preconditioner has been already described in [6, 7]. Other adaptive coarse space constructions for FETI, FETI-DP, and BDDC methods have been proposed in [8, 10]. We also present some preliminary numerical results for different scalings, including the recent deluxe scaling; cf., [2].
