Abstract: This paper proposes and tests the first-ever reduced basis warmstart iterative method for the parametrized linear systems, exemplified by systems obtained by discretizing the parametric partial differential equations.Traditional iterative methods are usually used to obtain the high-fidelity solutions of these linear systems.However, they typically come with a significant computational cost which becomes challenging if not entirely untenable when the parametrized systems need to be solved a large number of times (e.g.corresponding to different parameter values or time steps).Classical techniques for mitigating this cost mainly include acceleration approaches such as preconditioning.This paper advocates for the generation of an initial prediction with controllable fidelity as an alternative approach to achieve the same goal.The proposed reduced basis warm-start iterative method leverages the mathematically rigorous and efficient reduced basis method to generate a high-quality initial guess thereby decreasing the number of iterative steps.Via comparison with the iterative method initialized with a zero solution and the RBM preconditioned and initialized iterative method tested on two 3D steady-state diffusion equations, we establish the efficacy of the proposed reduced basis warm-start approach.MSC 2020 subject classifications:
