The preceding paper derives a staggered‐grid, finite‐difference approximation applicable to electromagnetic induction in the Earth. The staggered‐grid, finite‐difference approximation results in a linear system of equations [Formula: see text]x = b, where [Formula: see text] is symmetric but not Hermitian. This is solved using the biconjugate gradient method, preconditioned with a modified, partial Cholesky decomposition of [Formula: see text]. This method takes advantage of the sparsity of [Formula: see text], and converges much more quickly than methods used previously to solve the 3-D induction problem. When simulating a conductivity model at a number of frequencies, the rate of convergence slows as frequency approaches 0. The convergence rate at low frequencies can be improved by an order of magnitude, by alternating the incomplete Cholesky preconditioned biconjugate gradient method with a procedure designed to make the approximate solutions conserve current.

Abstract The problem of continuation of the solution of a three-dimensional parabolic equation with data given on a time-like surface is investigated. Two numerical methods for solving the continuation problem are compared: the finite-difference scheme inversion and the solution of inverse problem by gradient method. The functional gradient formula is obtained. The results of numerical calculations are presented.

We present a convergence analysis for a finite difference scheme for the time dependent partial different equation called gradient flow associated with the Rudin-Osher-Fetami model. We devise an iterative algorithm to compute the solution of the finite difference scheme and prove the convergence of the iterative algorithm. Finally computational experiments are shown to demonstrate the convergence of the finite difference scheme.
