Motivated by [1], we have investigated the use of a new coarse space in the additive Schwarz method.
Independently, a somewhat similar coarse space was tested in [2]. Both
methods are concerned with the standard elliptic model problem having large (possibly discontinuous) jumps in the (material) coefficients. This talk will report on a comparison of the two methods.
