On the scalability of the Schwarz method (Q2188102): Difference between revisions

This article discusses the convergence behaviour and scalability properties of the one-level Parallel Schwarz method for domain decomposition problems in which the boundaries of many subdomains lie in the interior of the global domain. A detailed convergence and scalability analysis of the proposed method for the solution of the Laplace equation on a domain obtained as the union of several intersecting subdomains is presented. Numerical experiments are included to support the theoretical findings.
