Flexible Complementarity Solvers for Large-Scale Applications
Discretizations of infinite-dimensional variational inequalities lead to linear and nonlinear complementarity problems with many degrees of freedom. To solve these problems in a parallel computing environment, we propose two active-set methods that solve only one linear system of equations per iteration. The linear solver, preconditioner, and matrix structures can be chosen by the user for a particular application to achieve high parallel performance. The parallel scalability of these methods is demonstrated for some discretizations of infinite-dimensional variational inequalities.
