چکیده

We consider a multigrid method for solving the discretized optimality system of a PDE-constrained optimization problem. In particular, we discuss the construction of an additive Schwarz-type smoother for a class of elliptic optimal control problems. A rigorous multigrid convergence analysis yields level-independent convergence rates. Numerical experiments indicate that the convergence rates are also independent of the involved regularization parameter.

The split Bregman algorithm applied to PDE-constrained optimization problems with total variation regularization

We derive an efficient solution method for ill-posed PDE-constrained optimization problems with total variation regularization. This regularization technique allows discontinuous solutions, which is desirable in many applications. Our approach is to adapt the split Bregman technique to handle such PDE-constrained optimization problems. This leads to an iterative scheme where we must solve a lin...

A preconditioning technique for a class of PDE-constrained optimization problems

We investigate the use of a preconditioning technique for solving linear systems of saddle point type arising from the application of an inexact Gauss–Newton scheme to PDE-constrained optimization problems with a hyperbolic constraint. The preconditioner is of block triangular form and involves diagonal perturbations of the (approximate) Hessian to insure nonsingularity and an approximate Schur...

Robust Iterative Solution of a Class of Time-Dependent Optimal Control Problems

The fast iterative solution of optimal control problems, and in particular PDE-constrained optimization problems, has become an active area of research in applied mathematics and numerical analysis. In this paper, we consider the solution of a class of time-dependent PDE-constrained optimization problems, specifically the distributed control of the heat equation. We develop a strategy to approx...

Some Preconditioning Techniques for Saddle Point Problems

Saddle point problems arise frequently in many applications in science and engineering, including constrained optimization, mixed finite element formulations of partial differential equations, circuit analysis, and so forth. Indeed the formulation of most problems with constraints gives rise to saddle point systems. This paper provides a concise overview of iterative approaches for the solution...

Reduction strategies for PDE-constrained optimization problems in haemodynamics

Solving optimal control problems for many different scenarios obtained by varying a set of parameters in the state system is a computationally extensive task. In this paper we present a new reduced framework for the formulation, the analysis and the numerical solution of parametrized PDE-constrained optimization problems. This framework is based on a suitable saddle-point formulation of the opt...
