On the theory of deflation and singular symmetric positive semi-definite matrices

In this report we give new insights into the properties of invertible and singular deflated and preconditioned linear systems where the coefficient matrices are also symmetric and positive (semi-) definite. First we prove that the invertible de ated matrix has always a more favorable effeective condition number compared to the original matrix....

New variants of deflation techniques for bubbly flow problems

For various applications, it is well-known that deflated ICCG is an efficient method for solving linear systems with invertible and singular co-efficient matrix. This deflated ICCG with subdomain deflation vectors is used by us to solve linear systems with singular coefficient matrix, arising from a discretization of the Poisson equation with...
