    Notes: Summary In this paper we analyze the condition number of the stiffness matrices arising in the discretization of selfadjoint and positive definite plane elliptic boundary value problems of second order by finite element methods when using hierarchical bases of the finite element spaces instead of the usual nodal bases. We show that the condition number of such a stiffness matrix behaves like O((log κ)2) where κ is the condition number of the stiffness matrix with respect to a nodal basis. In the case of a triangulation with uniform mesh sizeh this means that the stiffness matrix with respect to a hierarchical basis of the finite element space has a condition number behaving like $$O\left( {\left( {\log \frac{1}{h}} \right)^2 } \right)$$ instead of $$O\left( {\left( {\frac{1}{h}} \right)^2 } \right)$$ for a nodal basis. The proofs of our theorems do not need any regularity properties of neither the continuous problem nor its discretization. Especially we do not need the quasiuniformity of the employed triangulations. As the representation of a finite element function with respect to a hierarchical basis can be converted very easily and quickly to its representation with respect to a nodal basis, our results mean that the method of conjugate gradients needs onlyO(log n) steps andO(n log n) computer operations to reduce the energy norm of the error by a given factor if one uses hierarchical bases or related preconditioning procedures. Heren denotes the dimension of the finite element space and of the discrete linear problem to be solved.

    Notes: Summary The finite element discretization of many elliptic boundary value problems leads to linear systems with positive definite and symmetric coefficient matrices. Many efficient preconditioners are known for these systems. We show that these preconditioning matrices can also be used for the linear systems arising from boundary value problems which are potentially indefinite due to lower order terms in the partial differential equation. Our main tool is a careful algebraic analysis of the condition numbers and the spectra of perturbed matrices which are preconditioned by the same matrices as in the unperturbed case.

    Notes: Abstract. A problem of all particle methods is that they produce large vacuum regions when they are applied to a free gas flow, for example. With the approach recently proposed by the author [Numer. Math. (1997) 76: 111–142], this difficulty can be avoided. One can let the particles adapt their size to the local state of the fluid. How, is described in the present article. The diameter as an additional degree of freedom strongly improves the performance of the numerical methods based on this particle model.

    Notes: Abstract. The examination of the particle model of compressible fluids that has been developed by the author [Numer. Math. (1997) 76: 111–142] and that has recently been extended to particles of variable size [Numer. Math. (1999) 82: 143–159], is continued. It is shown that, in the limit of particle sizes tending to zero, both the mass density and the mass flux density and the entropy density and the entropy flux density converge in the weak sense and satisfy the corresponding conservation laws. To incorporate entropy generation in shocks, a new kind of viscous force is introduced.
