A parameterized block LU preconditioning for double saddle point problems

RESUMO

We present a biparametric preconditioning technique for large, sparse, non-symmetric, and non-singular double saddle point problems. The preconditioner is induced using a stationary iteration method. It is also based on a two-parameterized block LU factorization of the coefficient matrix. To begin with, some convergence results of the iteration method are derived. Moreover, the spectral features exhibited by the preconditioned matrix are given. Finally, the presented preconditioner is conjuncted with the GMRES method. Numerical results demonstrate the satisfactory performance of the preconditioner.
