2 G Awanou, J Lai / Applied Numerical athematics ) Introduction We will use the same notations, ) and for the inner products and norms in R n and R m The particular inner product will be identified by the types of matrices appearing The augmented Lagrangian algorithm for symmetric problems can be derived by minimization arguments We refer to [8] for details It is described as follows: with r>0andρ l > 0 for all l as parameters, given λ 0) R m specified arbitrarily, with λ l) known, compute c l) then λ l+1) by { A + rl T L ) c l) + L T λ l) = F + rl T G, λ l+1) = λ l) + ρ l Lc l) G ) 2) In [2], we were interested in a variant of this algorithm for ρ l = ρ = 1 ε for all l, r = 1 where ε>0is ε fixed ore precisely, for this choice of the parameters, the algorithm reads { A + 1 ε LT L ) c l) + L T λ l) = F + 1 ε LT G, λ l+1) = λ l) + 1 ε Lc l) G ) 3) The variant we considered is the following algorithm { A + 1 ε LT L ) c l+1) + L T λ l) = F + 1 ε LT G, λ l+1) = λ l) + 1 ε Lc l+1) G ) 4), which can be easily shown to be equivalent to the following sequence of problems [ ][ ] [ ] A L T c l+1) F L ε λ l+1) = G ελ l), 5) for = I,whereI is the identity matrix of size m m In general is a suitably chosen matrix In [9], it was claimed that the later algorithm converges to the solution c of 1) and c c l+1) Cε c c l), for a constant C>0independent of ε We have not however been able to find a proof of this result in the literature The main objective of this article is to prove the convergence of the following algorithm { A + rl T 1 L ) c l+1) + L T λ l) = F + rl T 1 G, λ l+1) = λ l) + ρ 1 Lc l+1) G ) 6), ρ >0, which generalizes 5) and give a convergence rate similar to the one above A fine study of the convergence rate still appears to be difficult cf [8, Remark 212 p 64]) The algorithm 6) is the Uzawa algorithm applied to the augmented system { A + rl T 1 L ) c + L T λ = F + rl T 1 G, 7) Lc = G, and hence can have an improved convergence rate One other advantage of the augmented Lagrangian algorithm is to solve compared to 1), systems of smaller size However, following [7, p 15], A r = A + rl T 1 L has a condition number KA r ) asymptotically proportional to r, that is KA r ) r 1 L 2, when r, σ
