Notes:
Two preconditioning techniques for solving difference equations arising in finite difference approximation of elliptic problems on cell-centered grids are studied. It is proven that the BEPS and the FAC preconditioners are spectrally equivalent to the corresponding finite difference schemes, including a nonsymmetric one, which is of higher-order accuracy. Numerical experiments that demonstrate the fast convergence of the preconditioned iterative methods (CG and GCG-LS in the nonsymmetric case) are presented.
