Abstract

Multilevel domain decomposition and multigrid methods depend on good interpolation operators to transfer information from one level to another. In unstructured meshes, the grid hierachy can allow general coarse grids whose boundaries may be non-matching to the boundary of the fine grid, so special treatments are needed to implement different types of boundary conditions. In this talk, we will discuss some algorithms to generate coarse grids for unstructured meshes, and then propose several different variations of coarse-to-fine interpolations to correctly handle boundary conditions in such cases. Finally, some numerical results for domain decomposition and multigrid methods on unstructured grids will be given.
