Poisson-Solver

This repository contains a solver for the the modified Poisson-equation

-Δu(x) + αu(x) = f(x), x∈Ω, ∂Ω = 0, α >0

where the domain Ω is either square or cubic.

The solver discretizes this equation using central finite differences to get a linear system and then runs the preconditioned conjugate gradient method to solve this system. For the preconditioner we use a tridiagonal matrix that we can efficiently invert using Cuda on a Nvidia graphic card.

I developed this code for my Bachelor thesis but did not look at it since then. It still seems to compile though. Maybe someone has a use for it.
