Realistic eigenvalue bounds for the Galerkin mass matrix. (English) Zbl 0648.65076

Lower and upper bounds on the eigenvalues of the Galerkin mass matrix being preconditioned by its diagonal entries are derived. The bounds are established in an element-by-element manner using the matrix representation of the assembly rules. The results support the conjecture that the diagonally preconditioned conjugate gradients are an efficient solver for the Galerkin mass matrix equations.
