Preconditioning Navier–Stokes control using multilevel sequentially semiseparable matrix computations

In this article, we study preconditioning techniques for the control of the Navier–Stokes equation, where the control only acts on a few parts of the domain. Optimization, discretization, and linearization of the control problem results in a generalized linear saddle-point system. The Schur complement for the generalized saddle-point system...

Preconditioning optimal in-domain control of navier-stokes equation using multilevel sequentially semiseparable matrix computations

In this manuscript, we study preconditioning techniques for optimal in-domain control of the Navier-Stokes equation, where the control only acts on a few parts of the domain.

Preconditioning Optimal Flow Control Problems Using Multilevel Sequentially Semiseparable Matrix Computations

Optimal flow control problems are important for applications in science and engineering. Solving such problems usually requires the solution of a large linear generalized saddle-point system. This linear system is sparse and highly indefinite. In order to solve such systems using Krylov subspace methods, efficient preconditioners are necessary...

Efficient Preconditioners for PDE-Constrained Optimization Problems with a Multi-level Sequentially Semi-Separable Matrix Structure

In this paper, we consider preconditioning for PDE-constrained optimization problems. The underlying problems yield a linear saddle-point system. We study a class of preconditioners based on multilevel sequentially semiseparable (MSSS) matrix computations. The novel global preconditioner is to make use of the global structure of the saddle-point...
