Convergence analysis for multigrid algorithms of the covolume method or a vertex-centered finite volume element method for variable coefficient elliptic problems is presented. As in standard finite elements, the V-cycle algorithm with one pre-smoothing converges with a rate independent of the number of levels. Various types of smoothers including point or line Jacobi, and Gauss-Seidel relaxation are considered.
