In this paper, local multiplicative and additive multilevel methods on adaptively refined meshes are considered for second-order elliptic problems with highly discontinuous coefficients. For the multilevel-preconditioned system, we study the distribution of its spectrum by using the abstract Schwarz theory. It is proved that, except for a few small eigenvalues, the spectrum of the preconditioned system is bounded quasi-uniformly with respect to the jumps of the coefficient and the mesh sizes. The convergence rate of multilevel-preconditioned conjugate gradient methods is shown to be quasi-optimal regarding the jumps and the meshes. Numerical experiments are presented to illustrate the theoretical findings.
