Weighted Jacobi method for the one-dimensional Poisson equation

For the centered second-difference matrix with diagonal $-2$ and off-diagonals $1$, the weighted-Jacobi eigenvalues areThe method converges for every grid size exactly when $0<\omega \le 1$.

For modes with $k/(n+1)\in [1/2,1]$ and large $n$, the worst attenuation factor isIt is minimized by $\omega =2/3$, for which ${\mu }_{\omega }=1/3$.
