Interface boundary conditions are the key ingredient to design efficient domain decomposition methods. However, convergence cannot be obtained for any method in a number of iterations less than the number of subdomains minus one in the case of a one-way splitting. This optimal convergence can be obtained with generalized Robin type boundary conditions associated with an operator equal to the Schur complement of the outer domain. Since the Schur complement is too expensive to compute exactly, a new approach based on the computation of the exact Schur complement for a small patch around each interface node is presented for the two-Lagrange multiplier FETI method.
