These are the proceedings of the 26th International Conference on Domain Decomposition Methods in Science and Engineering, which was hosted by the Chinese University of Hong Kong and held online in December 2020.Domain decomposition methods are iterative methods for solving the often very large systems of equations that arise when engineering problems are discretized, frequently using finite elements or other modern techniques. These methods are specifically designed to make effective use of massively parallel, high-performance computing systems.The book presents both theoretical and...

The volume features high-quality papers based on the presentations at the ICOSAHOM 2020+1 on spectral and high order methods. The carefully reviewed articles cover state of the art topics in high order discretizations of partial differential equations.The volume presents a wide range of topics including the design and analysis of high order methods, the development of fast solvers on modern computer architecture, and the application of these methods in fluid and structural mechanics computations.

Sparse grids are a popular tool for the numerical treatment of high-dimensional problems. Where classical numerical discretization schemes fail in more than three or four dimensions, sparse grids, in their different flavors, are frequently the method of choice.This volume of LNCSE presents selected papers from the proceedings of the fifth workshop on sparse grids and applications, and demonstrates once again the importance of this numerical discretization scheme. The articles present recent advances in the numerical analysis of sparse grids in connection with a range of applications including...
