Multi-level Parareal algorithm with Averaging
share
The present study is an extension of the work done in [16] and [10], where a two-level Parareal method with averaging was examined. The method proposed in this paper is a multi-level Parareal method with arbitrarily many levels, which is not restricted to the two-level case. We give an asymptotic error estimate which reduces to the two-level estimate for the case when only two levels are considered. Introducing more than two levels has important consequences for the averaging procedure, as we choose separate averaging windows for each of the different levels, which is an additional new feature of the present study. The different averaging windows make the proposed method especially appropriate for multi-scale problems, because we can introduce a level for each intrinsic scale of the problem and adapt the averaging procedure such that we reproduce the behavior of the model on the particular scale resolved by the level.
