Originally introduced as a way to numerically solve elliptic boundary-value problems, multigrid methods, and their various multiscale descendants, have since been developed and applied to various problems in many disciplines. This introductory article provides the basic concepts and methods of analysis and outlines some of the difficulties of developing efficient multigrid algorithms.
