Superlinear Krylov convergence under streamline diffusion FEM for convection‐dominated elliptic operators

Abstract

AbstractThis paper studies the superlinear convergence of Krylov iterations under the streamline‐diffusion preconditioning operator for convection‐dominated elliptic problems. First, convergence results are given involving the diffusion parameter . Then the limiting case is studied on the operator level, and the convergence results are extended to this situation under some conditions, in spite of the lack of compactness of the perturbation operators. An explicit rate is also given.
