Notes:
Yserentant's and Bramble/Pasciak/Xu's hierarchical preconditioners only require the hierarchical node connection of a finite element grid. So they could be applied to nonsymmetric FE-systems too, having a symmetric preconditioner. We investigate the question whether this fact could be useful in the CG-like iterative methods. The main key is the consideration of an appropriate choice of the inner product defined in the N-vector space. It is shown, how the inner product influences the formulas of the methods, the rate of convergence and some other properties.
