Abstract: | Summary. A new additive Schwarz preconditioner for the Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting (FETI) method is analyzed in this paper. This preconditioner has the unique feature that the coefficient matrix of its ``coarse grid' problem is mesh independent. For a model second order heterogeneous elliptic boundary value problem in two dimensions, the condition number of the preconditioned system is shown to be bounded by C[1+ln(H/h)]2, where h is the mesh size, H is the typical diameter of the subdomains, and the constant C is independent of h, H, the number of subdomains and the coefficients of the boundary value problem.
