Domain Decomposition Methods - Algorithms and Theory

From the reviews of the first edition: "This book unifies the results from a number of papers by the authors and their coworkers over the past two decades, and complements them by new insights and some background. The distinguishing feature of this book is a comprehensive and rigorous treatment of convergence bounds based on the theory of infinite elements. ... The bibliography is quite complete for the fields covered ... . The book belongs on the desk of all specialists involved in domain decomposition and substructuring ... ."
