Anderson Acceleration for Numerical PDEs
About this ebook
This book covers AA convergence theory for both contractive and noncontractive operators, as well as filtering techniques for AA. It includes examples of how convergence theory can be adapted to various application problems. It also includes AA’s impact on sublinear convergence and integration of AA with Newton’s method.
The authors provide detailed proofs of key theorems and results from numerous test examples. Code for the examples is available in an online repository.
