Abstract: In this paper, we propose and analyze a set of fully non-stationary Anderson acceleration algorithms with dynamic window sizes and optimized damping. Although Anderson acceleration (AA) has been used for decades to speed up nonlinear solvers in many applications, most authors are simply using and analyzing the stationary version of Anderson acceleration (sAA) with fixed window size and a constant damping factor. The behavior and potential of the non-stationary version of Anderson acceleration methods remain an open question. Since most efficient linear solvers use composable algorithmic components. Similar ideas can be used for AA to solve nonlinear systems. Thus in the present work, to develop non-stationary Anderson acceleration algorithms, we first propose two systematic ways to dynamically alternate the window size m by composition. One simple way to package sAA(m) with sAA(n) in each iteration is applying sAA(m) and sAA(n) separately and then average their results. It is an additive composite combination. The other more important way is the multiplicative composite combination, which means we apply sAA(m) in the outer loop and apply sAA(n) in the inner loop. By doing this, significant gains can be achieved. Secondly, to make AA to be a fully non-stationary algorithm, we need to combine these strategies with our recent work on the non-stationary Anderson acceleration algorithm with optimized damping (AAoptD), which is another important direction of producing non-stationary AA and nice performance gains have been observed. Moreover, we also investigate the rate of convergence of these non-stationary AA methods under suitable assumptions. Finally, our numerical results show that some of these proposed non-stationary Anderson acceleration algorithms converge faster than the stationary sAA method and they may significantly reduce the storage and time to find the solution in many cases.
