The discretization of robust quadratic optimal control problems under uncertainty using the finite element method and the stochastic collocation method leads to large saddle-point systems, which are fully coupled across the random realizations. Despite its ...
Two-level domain decomposition methods are very powerful techniques for the efficient numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs). A two-level domain decomposition method requires two main components: a one-level preconditioner (or its corr ...
Inverse reconstruction from images is a central problem in many scientific and engineering disciplines. Recent progress on differentiable rendering has led to methods that can efficiently differentiate the full process of image formation with respect to mi ...
This paper considers the multi-agent linear least-squares problem in a server-agent network architecture. The system comprises multiple agents, each with a set of local data points. The agents are connected to a server, and there is no inter-agent communic ...
We present the construction of additive multilevel preconditioners, also known as BPX preconditioners, for the solution of the linear system arising in isogeometric adaptive schemes with (truncated) hierarchical B-splines. We show that the locality of hier ...
The Dirichlet-Neumann (DN) method has been extensively studied for linear partial differential equations, while little attention has been devoted to the nonlinear case. In this paper, we analyze the DN method both as a nonlinear iterative method and as a p ...
In this paper, we extend the work of Günther-Hanssen (2020) in applying the INTERNODES method to problems in contact mechanics. In an initial work on this topic, Günther-Hanssen showed that the INTERNODES method could be successfully applied but also revea ...
Iterative substructuring Domain Decomposition (DD) methods have been extensively studied, and they are usually associated with nonoverlapping decompositions. It is less known that classical overlapping DD methods can also be formulated in substructured for ...
This paper is concerned with the asymptotic optimality of spectral coarse spaces for two-level iterative methods. Spectral coarse spaces, namely coarse spaces obtained as the span of the slowest modes of the used one-level smoother, are known to be very ef ...
In this paper we tackle the challenge of making the stochastic coordinate descent algorithm differentially private. Compared to the classical gradient descent algorithm where updates operate on a single model vector and controlled noise addition to this ve ...
