Abstract: Deflation methods are particularly interesting for building coarse grids in massively parallel domain decomposition algorithms. This is demonstrated for incompressible flows in which the scalar projection phase solved by a Schwarz method becomes scalable when deflation is introduced. The case of compressible models is addressed in combination with the Restrictive Additive Schwarz algorithm (RAS) and its efficiency demonstrated.
