A One-level Additive Schwarz Preconditioner for a Discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin Method

Andrew T. Barker, Susanne C. Brenner, Eun-Hee Park +1

Discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin (DPG) methods are new discontinuous Galerkin methods with interesting properties. In this article we consider a domain decomposition preconditioner fo…

Two critical phenomena in the exactly soluble quantized Schwarzschild black hole

Edwin J. Son, Wontae Kim

We study thermodynamic quantities and phase transitions of a spherically symmetric Schwarzschild black hole by taking into account the back reaction through the conformal anomaly o…
