Abstract

This paper suggests a technique for the construction of preconditioning operators for the iterative solution of systems of grid equations approximating elliptic boundary value problems with strong singularities in the coefficients. The technique suggested is based on the decomposition of the original domain into sub domains in which the singularity of coefficients is characterized by some parameter. The convergence rate of the iterative process which uses the preconditioner suggested is independent of both the mesh size and the equation coefficients.
