Abstract

In this contribution, we report on some results recently obtained in joint work with Maksymilian Dryja. We first study an additive variant of Schewarz' alternating algorithm and establish that a fast method of this kind can be devised which is optimal in the number of conjugate gradient iterations required, to reach a certain tolerance, is independent of the mesh size as well as the of subregions.
