Tuning Spectral Element Preconditioners for Parallel Scalability on GPUs

Published in SIAM PP 22 Proceeding, 2022

This paper is concerning runtime tuning spectral element preconditioners for parallel scalability on GPUs. A nascent tuning strategy is proposed to help alleviate the difficulty of choosing a reasonable preconditioner for a given problem. A variety of novel preconditioning schemes are also proposed, including $p$-multigrid with Chebyshev-accelerated Schwarz smoothers, low-order operator preconditioning, and even hybridizing the two approach by treating the low-order operator as the coarse grid operator.
