Multi-neighboring grids schemes for solving PDE eigen-problems

Instead of most existing postprocessing schemes, a new preprocessing approach, called multi- neighboring grids （MNG）, is proposed for solving PDE eigen-problems on an existing grid G（A）. The linear or multi-linear element, based on box-splines, are taken as the first stage Khuh -λh/1Mh/1Uh. In this paper, the j-th stage neighboring-grid scheme is defined as Khuh λh/j Mh/j Uh = λh/j Mh/j Uh , where gh ：- Mh/j-1 Kh/1 and Mhuh is to be found as a better mass distribution over the j-th stage neighboring-grid G（/k）, and Kh/1 can be seen as an expansion of Kh on the j-th neighboring-grid with respect to the （j - 1）-th mass distribution Mh_l. It is shown that for an ODE model eigen-problem, the j-th stage scheme with 2j-th order B-spline basis can reach 2j-th order accuracy and even （2j ＋ 2）-th order accuracy by perturbing the mass matrix. The argument can be extended to high dimensions with separable variable cases. For Laplace eigen-problems with some 2-D and 3-D structured uniform grids, some 2j-th order schemes are presented for j ≤ 3.

Instead of most existing postprocessing schemes,a new preprocessing approach,called multineighboring grids(MNG),is proposed for solving PDE eigen-problems on an existing grid G(Δ).The linear or multi-linear element,based on box-splines,are taken as the frst stage Kh1Uh=λh1Mh1Uh.In this paper,the j-th stage neighboring-grid scheme is defned asKh jUh=λh j Mh jUh,where Kh j:=Mh j 1Kh1and Mh jUh is to be found as a better mass distribution over the j-th stage neighboring-gridG(Δ),and Kh jcan be seen as an expansion of Kh1on the j-th neighboring-grid with respect to the(j 1)-th mass distribution Mh j 1.It is shown that for an ODE model eigen-problem,the j-th stage scheme with 2j-th order B-spline basis can reach2j-th order accuracy and even(2j+2)-th order accuracy by perturbing the mass matrix.The argument can be extended to high dimensions with separable variable cases.For Laplace eigen-problems with some 2-D and 3-D structured uniform grids,some 2j-th order schemes are presented for j 3.
