Abstract: Inexact (variable) preconditioning of Multilevel Krylov methods (MK methods) for the solution of linear systems of equations is considered. MK methods approximate the solution of the local systems on a subspace using a few, but fixed, number of iteration steps of a preconditioned flexible Krylov method. In this paper, using the philosophy of inexact Krylov subspace methods, we use a theoretically-derived criterion to choose the number of iterations needed on each level to achieve a desired tolerance. We use this criterion on one level and obtain an improved MK method. Inspired by these results, a second ad hoc method is also explored. Numerical experiments for the Poisson, Helmholtz, and the convection-diffusion equations illustrate the efficiency and robustness of this adaptive Multilevel Krylov method. Keywords: Multilevel Krylov methods, flexible GMRES, inexact Krylov subspace methods, inexact preconditioning Published Online: 2019/12/16 14:30:33 Object Identifier: 0xc1aa5572 0x003b1b7d Rights: . Electronic Transactions on Numerical Analysis (ETNA) is an electronic journal for the publication of significant new developments in numerical analysis and scientific computing. Papers of the highest quality that deal with the analysis of algorithms for the solution of continuous models and numerical linear algebra are appropriate for ETNA, as are papers of similar quality that discuss implementation and performance of such algorithms. New algorithms for current or new computer architectures are appropriate provided that they are numerically sound. However, the focus of the publication should be on the algorithm rather than on the architecture. The journal is published by the Kent State University Library in conjunction with the Institute of Computational Mathematics at Kent State University, and in cooperation with the Johann Radon Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (RICAM). Reviews of all ETNA papers appear in Mathematical Reviews and Zentralblatt für Mathematik. Reference information for ETNA papers also appears in the expanded Science Citation Index. ETNA is registered with the Library of Congress and has ISSN 1068-9613. …
