Dear Firedrakers, we have recently finished an online reading group going through Doug Arnold's finite element exterior calculus book. We're now planning the next thing to attack. My proposal, since it intersects with the interests of a number of people who have already been involved, is to read through Joachim Schoeberl's thesis on parameter robust multigrid methods (https://www.asc.tuwien.ac.at/~schoeberl/wiki/publications/diss.pdf). It provides an overview of additive Schwarz theory and multigrid methods, and analysis of convergence and robustness, and is generally a nice thesis on finite element methods and their analysis. Our present schedule has been at 14:00 BST (13:00 UTC) on Mondays, via Zoom. This works well for Europeans, but if enough west-pondians want to join we may consider moving (within the constraints of fitting the working day). The format is informal, and you don't have to have done any prep unless you're presenting (or want to). If you're interested, please let me know (and whether the proposed time is suitable). I'll then try and cook up a schedule and send out zoom links. Cheers, Lawrence
Hi Lawrence, I think this is a great idea. It is an usually well-written and pedagogical thesis so I think there will be something for everyone in it. The current time is great for me but I am also happy with later times on Monday (till any time in the evening), Wed (from 4pm until any time in the evening), Thursday (from 1pm to any time in the evening). all the best --cjc ________________________________ From: firedrake-bounces@imperial.ac.uk <firedrake-bounces@imperial.ac.uk> on behalf of Lawrence Mitchell <wence@gmx.li> Sent: 20 May 2020 11:48 To: firedrake <firedrake@imperial.ac.uk> Subject: [firedrake] Online reading group Dear Firedrakers, we have recently finished an online reading group going through Doug Arnold's finite element exterior calculus book.

This time fit well with everyone who responded, so let's go with 14:00 BST (13:00 UTC) on Mondays. You didn't have to respond to be allowed to attend The details are in the Firedrake calendar if you want to add it: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=qbaqqtn2iiu5l6qjbf2t4aafa8%40... The meeting details are: Meeting ID: 958 2789 9769 Password: 982161 https://durhamuniversity.zoom.us/j/95827899769?pwd=RU5MRW5IQkNxVHlLQXlFSXpIb... Having proposed things, I guess I should kick off by leading at least the first week, so I will prepare for Monday. Look forward to seeing you there! Lawrence
