Summary
This paper introduces a Krylov subspace deflation technique based on a discretewavelet compression. This technique is based on an observation that the deflation coarse problem matrix is closely related to a matrix obtained by a discrete wavelet transformation. Thanks to this observation, we know exactly how the deflation space should look like. Moreover, we can directly and cheaply assemble this space. We showcase both numerical and performance aspects of our approach on the deflated conjugate gradient method. However, our findings should be also valid for other deflated Krylov subspace methods, like GMRES or MINRES.
