Popis: In this paper we study the convergence of a multigrid method for the solution of a two-dimensional linear second order elliptic equation, discretized by discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods. For the Baumann---Oden and for the symmetric DG method, we give a detailed analysis of the convergence for cell- and point-wise block-relaxation strategies. We show that, for a suitably constructed two-dimensional polynomial basis, point-wise block partitioning gives much better results than the classical cell-wise partitioning. Independent of the mesh size, for Poisson's equation, simple MG cycles with block-Gauss---Seidel or symmetric block-Gauss---Seidel smoothing, yield a convergence rate of 0.4---0.6 per iteration sweep for both DG-methods studied.
