Vector Extrapolation Methods Applied To Geometric Multigrid Solvers For Isogeometric Analysis (2412.20205v1)

Abstract: In the present work, we study how to develop an efficient solver for the fast resolution of large and sparse linear systems that occur while discretizing elliptic partial differential equations using isogeometric analysis. Our new approach combines vector extrapolation methods with geometric multigrid schemes. Using polynomial-type extrapolation methods to speed up the multigrid iterations is our main focus. Several numerical tests are given to demonstrate the efficiency of these polynomial extrapolation methods in improving multigrid solvers in the context of isogeometric analysis.
