Abstract:
Domain decomposition preconditioners for the linear systems arising from mixed finite element discretizations of second-order elliptic boundary value problems are proposed. The preconditioners are based on subproblems with either Neumann or Dirichlet boundary conditions on the interior boundary. The preconditioned systems have the same structure as the nonpreconditioned systems. In particular, we shall derive a preconditioned system with conditioning independent of the mesh parameter h. The application of the minimum residual method to the preconditioned systems is also discussed.References
