English abstract:
We analyze a multilevel diagonal additive Schwarz preconditioner for the adaptive coupling of FEM and BEM for a linear 2D Laplace transmission problem. We rigorously prove that the condition number of the preconditioned system stays uniformly bounded, independently
of the refinement level and the local mesh-size of the underlying adaptively refined triangulations. Although the focus is on the non-symmetric Johnson-NŽedŽelec one equation coupling, the principle ideas also apply to other formulations like the symmetric
FEM-BEM coupling. Numerical experiments underline our theoretical findings.

Keywords:
FEM-BEM coupling, preconditioner, multilevel additive Schwarz, adaptivity.
