Abstract

We consider  a class of two-by-two block complex system of linear equations obtained from finite element discretization of the distributed optimal control with time-periodic parabolic equations. Using the Schur complement technique we transform the obtained system to two subsystems. We propose a preconditioner to the subsystem with the Schur complement matrix. Spectral properties of the preconditioned matrix are analyzed. Some numerical results are presented to show the effectiveness of the preconditioner.
