Abstract

Two parallel domain decomposition procedures for solving initial-boundary value problems of parabolic partial differential equations are proposed. One is the extended D-D type algorithm, which extends the explicit/implicit conservative Galerkin domain decomposition procedures, given in [5], from a rectangle domain and its decomposition that consisted of a stripe of sub-rectangles into a general domain and its general decomposition with a net-like structure. An almost optimal error estimate, without the factor H^-^1^/^2 given in Dawson-Dupont's error estimate, is proved. Another is the parallel domain decomposition algorithm of improved D-D type, in which an additional term is introduced to produce an approximation of an optimal error accuracy in L^2-norm.
