In the present paper, we are concerned with the study of matrix-sequences arising from the discretization of PDEs and FDEs on domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with finite measure. When $\Omega$ is either a hypercube or a bounded…

Two-level domain decomposition methods are preconditioned Krylov solvers. What separates one- and two-level domain decomposition methods is the presence of a coarse space in the latter. The abstract Schwarz framework is a formalism that…

We investigate the parallel one-level overlapping Schwarz method for solving finite element discretization of high-frequency Helmholtz equations. The resulting linear systems are large, indefinite, ill-conditioned, and complex-valued. We…
