A comparison of parallel algorithms for numerical solution of parabolic problems with fractional power elliptic operators

Abstract

In this article we construct parallel solvers analyze the efficiency and accuracy of general parallel solvers for three dimensional parabolic problems with the fractional power of elliptic operators. The proposed discrete method are targeted for general non-constant elliptic operators, the second motivation for the usage of such schemes arises when non-uniform space meshes are essential. Parallel solvers are required to solve the obtained large size systems of linear equations. The detailed scalability analysis is done in order to compare the efficiency of prposed parallel algorithms. Results of computational experiments are presented and analyzed.
