Preconditioning for radial basis functions with domain decomposition methods (Q2486754): Difference between revisions

Radial basis functions provide a useful tool for multivariable interpolation and approximation which is also used for the approximation of solutions of partial differential equations. Inspite of all their advantages, they have the drawback of difficult numerical computation and evaluation. One way to circumvent this is by domain decomposition. This method, its combination with preconditioning the linear systems that lead to the approximations and their coefficients and its implementations, is studied in this paper. Test problems and examples are included as well.
