Multigrid method for Poisson equation

This simple code solves the Poisson equation for open boundary problems often encountered in DFT+NEGF calculations.

In particular can it solve problems with periodic, Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions individually selected on each boundary.

Method

We employ an adaptive/customizable multi grid method where every level can be controlled arbitrarily by the user.

Usage

Compile the MG library using

make

to compile the executable for solving input files, do

make mg

which creates the executable src/mg which can read input files. In the test folder several examples exists of input files for complex MG setups.

Precision

The precision can be controlled to arbitrary value. However, it is not stringently following conventional multi-grid methods as we simply want a reasonable guess for the Poisson solution.
