Efficient Domain Decomposition for the Helmholtz Equation on GPUs (opens in new tab)

The Helmholtz equation governs wave propagation in acoustics, electromagnetics, and seismology, but its indefinite nature makes it difficult to solve with iterative methods. Domain decomposition methods are a natural fit for massively parallel architectures, yet mapping efficient Helmholtz solvers onto modern GPUs remains a challenge. We address both with two key contributions: (1) a block-level domain decomposition scheme, in which each subdoma...
