Based on current trends in computer architectures, faster compute speeds must come from increased parallelism rather than increased clock speeds, which are currently stagnate. This situation has created the well-known bottleneck for sequential time-integration, where each individual time-value (i.e., time-step) is computed sequentially. One approach to alleviate this and achieve parallelism in time is with multigrid. In this work, we consider multigrid-reduction-in-time (MGRIT), a multilevel method applied to the time dimension that computes multiple time-steps in parallel. Like all multigrid methods, MGRIT relies on the complementary relationship between relaxation on a fine-grid and a correction from the coarse grid to solve the problem. All current MGRIT implementations are based on unweighted-Jacobi relaxation; here we introduce the concept of weighted relaxation to MGRIT. We derive new convergence bounds for weighted relaxation, and use this analysis to guide the selection of relaxation weights. Numerical results then demonstrate that non-unitary relaxation weights consistently yield faster convergence rates and lower iteration counts for MGRIT when compared with unweighted relaxation. In most cases, weighted relaxation yields a 10%-20% saving in iterations. For A-stable integration schemes, results also illustrate that under-relaxation can restore convergence in some cases where unweighted relaxation is not convergent.

We consider two parallel-in-time approaches applied to a (reaction) diffusion problem, possibly non-linear. In particular, we consider PFASST (Parallel Full Approximation Scheme in Space and Time) and space-time multilevel strategies. For both approa ches, we start from an integral formulation of the continuous time-dependent problem. Then, a collocation form for PFASST and a discontinuous Galerkin discretization in time for the space-time multigrid are employed, resulting in the same discrete solution at the time nodes. Strong and weak scaling of both multilevel strategies is compared for varying order of the temporal discretization. Moreover, we investigate the respective convergence behavior for non-linear problems and highlight quantitative differences.
In recent contributions, algebraic multigrid methods have been designed and studied from the viewpoint of the spectral complementarity. In this note we focus our efforts on specific applications and, more precisely, on large linear systems arising fr om the approximation of weighted Laplacian with various boundary conditions. We adapt the multigrid idea to this specific setting and we present and critically discuss a wide numerical experimentation showing the potentiality of the considered approach.
Topology optimization for large scale problems continues to be a computational challenge. Several works exist in the literature to address this topic, and all make use of iterative solvers to handle the linear system arising from the Finite Element A nalysis (FEA). However, the preconditioners used in these works vary, and in many cases are notably suboptimal. A handful of works have already demonstrated the effectiveness of Geometric Multigrid (GMG) preconditioners in topology optimization. Here, we show that Algebraic Multigrid (AMG) preconditioners offer superior robustness with only a small overhead cost. The difference is most pronounced when the optimization develops fine-scale structural features or multiple solutions to the same linear system are needed. We thus argue that the expanded use of AMG preconditioners in topology optimization will be essential for the optimization of more complex criteria in large-scale 3D domains.
The paper focuses on developing and studying efficient block preconditioners based on classical algebraic multigrid for the large-scale sparse linear systems arising from the fully coupled and implicitly cell-centered finite volume discretization of multi-group radiation diffusion equations, whose coefficient matrices can be rearranged into the $(G+2)times(G+2)$ block form, where $G$ is the number of energy groups. The preconditioning techniques are based on the monolithic classical algebraic multigrid method, physical-variable based coarsening two-level algorithm and two types of block Schur complement preconditioners. The classical algebraic multigrid is applied to solve the subsystems that arise in the last three block preconditioners. The coupling strength and diagonal dominance are further explored to improve performance. We use representative one-group and twenty-group linear systems from capsule implosion simulations to test the robustness, efficiency, strong and weak parallel scaling properties of the proposed methods. Numerical results demonstrate that block preconditioners lead to mesh- and problem-independent convergence, and scale well both algorithmically and in parallel.
This work presents the windowed space-time least-squares Petrov-Galerkin method (WST-LSPG) for model reduction of nonlinear parameterized dynamical systems. WST-LSPG is a generalization of the space-time least-squares Petrov-Galerkin method (ST-LSPG) . The main drawback of ST-LSPG is that it requires solving a dense space-time system with a space-time basis that is calculated over the entire global time domain, which can be unfeasible for large-scale applications. Instead of using a temporally-global space-time trial subspace and minimizing the discrete-in-time full-order model (FOM) residual over an entire time domain, the proposed WST-LSPG approach addresses this weakness by (1) dividing the time simulation into time windows, (2) devising a unique low-dimensional space-time trial subspace for each window, and (3) minimizing the discrete-in-time space-time residual of the dynamical system over each window. This formulation yields a problem with coupling confined within each window, but sequential across the windows. To enable high-fidelity trial subspaces characterized by a relatively minimal number of basis vectors, this work proposes constructing space-time bases using tensor decompositions for each window. WST-LSPG is equipped with hyper-reduction techniques to further reduce the computational cost. Numerical experiments for the one-dimensional Burgers equation and the two-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations for flow over a NACA 0012 airfoil demonstrate that WST-LSPG is superior to ST-LSPG in terms of accuracy and computational gain.
