Abstract
We present and analyse a multigrid algorithm for linear L2-regularized inverse parabolic equations, formulated as an unconstrained optimization problem. The method requires only one iteration at the finest level in order to resolve the problem to optimal order. The analysis is based on a two-grid approximation for the inverse Hessian that uses the smoothing property of parabolic equations.Original Document
