Correct. For a 2x2 system it's indeed easiest to calculate and apply $A_{2h}^{-1}$. (Nod) Yes. The result of applying the 2-grid method...

As I understand it, we should: 1. Apply the damped Jacobi method twice on the fine grid. 2. Switch to the residue on the coarse grid. 3. Solve for...

You wound up with $x^2\sin(x)$ on the RHS before integrating, but it should be $x\sin(x)$. :)

When you multiply through by $\mu(x)$, you should have: \frac{d}{dx}(\sin(x)y)=2 And then integrate: \sin(x)y=2x+c_1 ...

Hmm... doesn't the solution break down at $x=2$? (Wondering) The initial value problem gives us solutions up to $x=2$, which is a singularity....

I think it's not quite correct yet. When taking another derivative, we get different terms don't we? (Thinking) And additionally we get another...

I've looked up the greedy algorithm and I think your approach is correct. Where did you get the specific $5$ meters though? Shouldn't it be $k$...

It looks correct to me so far. (Thinking) Did you intentionally pick the $I_h^{2h}$ that does not use a weighed average? (Wondering) ...

As $\zeta_n^{}$ is closed under multiplication, $\zeta_n^{}\subset\zeta_n^{}$. On the other hand, as $1\in\zeta_n^{}$, $\zeta_n^{}\subset\zeta_n^{}$....

Towards the end, when you divide through by $x$, you want: y(x)=\frac{e^x}{x}+\frac{c}{x} You mistakenly divided the constant by $e^x$.

Yes, but you used it on the original ODE, not the one in standard linear form. :)

Yes. And it also assumes we take $\nu=2$ steps with the damped Jacobi method. (Nod) It's not quite clear from the text to me. With a choice...

We can freely choose to use $\omega=2/3$ or a different $\omega$, or not use the damped Jacobi method at all. The chapter explains that it's giving...
