A fast and robust computational method for the ionization cross sections   of the driven Schroedinger equation using an O(N) multigrid-based scheme
  This paper improves the convergence and robustness of a multigrid-based solver for the cross sections of the driven Schroedinger equation. Adding an Coupled Channel Correction Step (CCCS) after each multigrid (MG) V-cycle efficiently removes the errors that remain after the V-cycle sweep. The combined iterative solution scheme (MG-CCCS) is shown to feature significantly improved convergence rates over the classical MG method at energies where bound states dominate the solution, resulting in a fast and scalable solution method for the complex-valued Schroedinger break-up problem for any energy regime. The proposed solver displays optimal scaling; a solution is found in a time that is linear in the number of unknowns. The method is validated on a 2D Temkin-Poet model problem, and convergence results both as a solver and preconditioner are provided to support the O(N) scalability of the method. This paper extends the applicability of the complex contour approach for far field map computation [S. Cools, B. Reps, W. Vanroose, An Efficient Multigrid Calculation of the Far Field Map for Helmholtz and Schroedinger Equations, SIAM J. Sci. Comp. 36(3) B367--B395, 2014].
