Hi all, As described in the title, I am looking for an appropriate preconditioner for an asymmetric matrix implemented in matrix-free style.
I've gone though all the matrix-free tutorials and none of them talks about the asymmetric case. (Almost all of them use the Chebyshev smoother with different inner preconditioners) However, *Chebyshev smoother* is out of the question due to its requirement of symmetric positive definite matrix to get the max eigen-value. *BlockRelaxation preconditioner* is also unlikely to fit, which requires the inner contribution to cell blocks using discontinuous finite element. Other kinds of relaxation preconditioner like *SOR, ILU* all request certain entries of the matrix, which is expensive in matrix-free framework. So I guess the only doable choice would be the *PreconditionJacobi + GMRES on the inner levels and AMG + GMRES solver on the coarse grid*? Since I am still learning this amazing library and not familiar with the framework. Feel free to correct me if I got anything wrong.
