A novel multigrid based preconditioner for heterogeneous helmholtz problems

An iterative solution method, in the form of a preconditioner for a Krylov subspace method, is presented for the Helmholtz equation. The preconditioner is based on a Helmholtz-type differential operator with a complex term. A multigrid iteration is used for approximately inverting the preconditioner...

Zusammenfassung:An iterative solution method, in the form of a preconditioner for a Krylov subspace method, is presented for the Helmholtz equation. The preconditioner is based on a Helmholtz-type differential operator with a complex term. A multigrid iteration is used for approximately inverting the preconditioner. The choice of multigrid components for the corresponding preconditioning matrix with a complex diagonal is validated with Fourier analysis. Multigrid analysis results are verified by numerical experiments. High wavenumber Helmholtz problems in heterogeneous media are solved indicating the performance of the preconditioner.
