MiS Preprint Repository

We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server as of 1 March 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.

18h GAMM Seminar Leipzig on Multigrid and Related Methods for Optimization Problems

Michael Griebel and Wolfgang Hackbusch

Abstract

Since a long time, multigrid methods are applied to solve pde problems. However, so far the solution of optimisation problems is not a prominent target for multigrid methods. On the other hand, the numerical treatment of optimisation problems is often restricted to odes or rather low-dimensionally discretised pdes. The purpose of the seminar was to bring both aspects together.

Not all lectures and contributions deal with both aspects, but the proceedings contain papers on both aspects for parabolic problems as well as for Stokes systems. The hierarchical matrix technique is another fast solver method, whose application to autonomous LQ control problems is described. Further the link to image registration is discussed.
