Marching methods for elliptic problems. II, III

Abstract

Higher-order operators for marching methods for elliptic equations are considered. Higher-order is understood in the sense of higher-order accuracy solutions to second-order Poisson equations, and in the sense of higher-order elliptic equations such as the biharmonic equation. The use of deferred corrections for overcoming stability problems is illustrated. Direct and iterative methods of extending the mesh size are considered. Multiple marching, patching, and influence extending techniques are described.
