We discuss the parallel implementation of the most promising of these methods, the ones derived from the recent Hiptmair-Xu （HX） auxiliary space decomposition [Hiptmair and Xu, SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 45 （2007）, pp. 2483-2509]. An extensive set of numerical experiments demonstrate the scalability of our implementation on large-scale H（curl） problems.展开更多

文摘In this paper we review a number of auxiliary space based preconditioners for the second order definite and semi-definite Maxwell problems discretized with the lowest order Nedelec finite elements. We discuss the parallel implementation of the most promising of these methods, the ones derived from the recent Hiptmair-Xu （HX） auxiliary space decomposition [Hiptmair and Xu, SIAM J. Numer.
