Abstract

This work is devoted to numerical studies on an algebraic multigrid preconditioned GMRES method for solving the linear algebraic equations arising from a space–time finite element discretization of the heat equation using h–adaptivity on tetrahedral meshes. The finite element discretization is based on a Galerkin–Petrov variational formulation using piecewise linear finite elements simultaneously in space and time. In this work, we focus on h–adaptivity relying on a residual based a posteriori error estimation, and study some important components in the algebraic multigrid method for solving the space–time finite element equations.
