Abstract

We study a block triangular preconditioner for finite element approximations of the linearized Navier-Stokes equations. The preconditioner is based on the augmented Lagrangian formulation of the problem and was introduced by the authors in [SIAM J. Sci. Comput., 28 (2006), pp. 2095-2113]. In this paper we prove field-of-values type estimates for the preconditioned system which lead to optimal convergence bounds for the GMRES algorithm applied to solve the system. Two variants of the preconditioner are considered: an ideal one based on exact solves for the velocity submatrix, and a more practical variant based on block triangular approximations of the velocity submatrix.
