Convergence analysis of a multigrid algorithm for the acoustic single layer equation

We present and analyze a multigrid algorithm for the acoustic single layer equation in two dimensions. The boundary element formulation of the equation is based on piecewise constant test functions and we make use of a weak inner product in the multigrid scheme as proposed in \cite{BLP94}. A full error analysis of the algorithm is presented. We also conduct a numerical study of the effect of the weak inner product on the oscillatory behavior of the eigenfunctions for the Laplace single layer operator.

Boundary Integral Equations for the Laplace-Beltrami Operator

We present a boundary integral method, and an accompanying boundary element discretization, for solving boundary-value problems for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on the surface of the unit sphere $§$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We consider a closed curve ${\cal C}$ on ${\cal S}$ which divides ${\cal S}$ into two parts ${\cal S}_1$ and ${\cal S}_2$. In particular, ${\cal C} = \partial {\cal S}_1$ is the boundary curve of ${\cal S}_1$. We are interested in solving a boundary value problem for the Laplace-Beltrami operator in $§_2$, with boundary data prescribed on $\C$.
