On semi-convergence of the Uzawa–HSS method for singular saddle-point problems

摘要

Based on the Hermitian and skew-Hermitian splitting (HSS) iteration scheme, an efficient Uzawa–HSS iteration method has been proposed to solve the nonsingular saddle-point problems. In this paper, we discuss the feasibility of the Uzawa–HSS method used for solving singular saddle-point problems. The semi-convergence properties of the Uzawa–HSS iteration method are carefully analyzed, which show that the iterative sequence generated by the Uzawa–HSS method converges to a solution of the singular saddle-point problem if the iteration parameters satisfy suitable restrictions. Numerical results verify the robustness and efficiency of the Uzawa–HSS method.
