Abstract

We introduce a uniformly convergent iterative method for the systems arising from non-symmetric IIPG linear approximations of second order elliptic problems. The method can be viewed as a block Gauß–Seidel method in which the blocks correspond to restrictions of the IIPG method to suitably constructed subspaces. Numerical tests are included, showing the uniform convergence of the iterative method in an energy norm.
