Abstract

The studied large-scale linear problems arise from Crouzeix-Raviart non-conforming FEM approximation of second order elliptic boundary value problems. A two-level preconditioner for the case of coefficient anisotropy is analyzed. A special attention is given to the potential of the method for a parallel implementation.
