Abstract

A sparse algebraic multigrid method is studied as a cheap and accurateway to compute approximations of Schur complements of matricesarising from the discretization of some symmetric and positive definitepartial differential operators. The construction of such a multigrid isdiscussed and numerical experiments are used to verify the propertiesof the method.
