Two-level hybrid Schwarz Preconditioners for The Helmholtz Equation with high wave number
<|reference_start|>Two-level hybrid Schwarz Preconditioners for The Helmholtz Equation with high wave number: In this work, we propose and analyze two two-level hybrid Schwarz preconditioners for solving the Helmholtz equation with high wave number in two and three dimensions. Both preconditioners are defined over a set of overlapping subdomains, with each preconditioner formed by a global coarse solver and one local solver on each subdomain. The global coarse solver is based on the localized orthogonal decomposition (LOD) technique, which was proposed in [27,28] originally for the discretization schemes for elliptic multiscale problems with heterogeneous and highly oscillating coefficients and Helmholtz problems with high wave number to eliminate the pollution effect. The local subproblems are Helmholtz problems in subdomains with homogeneous boundary conditions (the first preconditioner) or impedance boundary conditions (the second preconditioner). Both preconditioners are shown to be optimal under some reasonable conditions, that is, a uniform upper bound of the preconditioned operator norm and a uniform lower bound of the field of values are established in terms of all the key parameters, such as the fine mesh size, the coarse mesh size, the subdomain size and the wave numbers. It is the first time to show that the LOD solver can be a very effective coarse solver when it is used appropriately in the Schwarz method with multiple overlapping subdomains. Numerical experiments are presented to confirm the optimality and efficiency of the two proposed preconditioners.<|reference_end|>
